List has been updated to include new card choices. Notably the inclusion of Quicken and Azorius Charm. Quicken replaces itself and lets you play supreme verdict at instant speed. Sadly no Elixir; Again, Wizards doesn't need to print it for Arena otherwise they should just unban Nexus of Fate. I place my favorite win-con Keranos, God of Storms in as well. It's more resilient than a planeswalker-finisher since you'll never have enough devotion to turn it into a creature.
I'm currently testing the 4-drop slot. It's a matter of flexibility vs what you consider to be valuable, in my case it's repeatability. Deluge nets you a card at 4 looks. Jace at minimum will net you no cards at 3 reveals. You can only cast deluge once (not counting flashback since Revelation for 4 at a CMC of 7 is arguably better overall). Deluge is only interactable by counterspells. No draw denial effects work on either spell since it's worded as a "put into hand" instead of a draw. But Jace stays on the field; In a vacuum you can repeatedly use him. But on average you're looking at < 2 Fact or Fiction's. Probably less, and at sorcery speed.
