Gift and By Force among other changes. —Oct. 3, 2019
Today we look to remove Teferi, Time Raveler Dispel Dovin's Veto Counterbalance
We look at all of these cards alone, they are strong. Teferi in multiplayer leaves us to be the one that does all the control/stopping players. Instead we added Grand Abolisher
Dispel was found to be the weakest of all the counterspells and we brought in By Force for additional removal.
Speaking of removal Counterbalance came out of the deck for Generous Gift. The bump up in the mana cost doesn't phase us, but it does remove pesky cards that are a problem for us. Counterbalance was found to be too cute for the deck. Sure, with Sensei's we can keep a lock if we have Elsha out. But what are the chances of having both out at the same time? I would rather just tutor for combo pieces to end the game out.
Lastly we go to Dovin's Veto... The card is sooo good, but we cut it out of the deck for extra draw power. Opt seemed to be the good play. Since we can hold priority, we are able to cast Opt, cast the cards after Opt until we hit a land. Resolve the stack, scry the creature or land. Draw a card. #value.
