A few changes —Dec. 27, 2019

Rakdos' Return > Cruel Reality. The one-off discard always felt like either too much of a punishment or not enough of one. Cruel Reality feels a bit more appropriate.
Orbs of Warding > Delaying Shield. Didn't even know this card existed until recently. Orbs always underperforms, and having a card that just says "get rid of me or you can't take the crown" feel great.
Mob Rule > Sigil of the Empty Throne. The incompleteness of the insurrection effect always leaves opponents with too many blockers. It was fun to eliminate individual players with but I think it needs to make room for a more solid win condition. Plus, producing angels for my court is way more flavorful than inviting a party of my enemies into the castle.
Marchesa's Decree > Baird, Steward of Argive. The flavor is on point, but the one life tax isn't nearly enough to be worth it. Baird gives a tangible tax as well as another royal for the court.
Skyline Despot > Archon of Absolution. Like Marchesa's Decree, the flavor is on point, but it doesn't really lend itself well to the gameplan.
