Check for: incorrect card weight (genuine Japanese cards weigh approximately 1.7g), missing or blurry texture on holographic cards, oversaturated color compared to reference images, and a slick rather than matte feel on non-holo surfaces
Look for this card together with Enduring Tenacity and Unstoppable Slasher, as they make pretty good combos
Common mistakes include running too few ink producers, including too many high-cost cards, or spreading yourself thin across too many ink colors
If only we could play more copies Just because red is bad in Standard doesnt mean we havent gotten good new red cards
As we move down the list, we start seeing strange foils such as Boil, Crypt Rats, Serra Advocate, Reprisal, Mistveil Plains, and Breath of Life pop up
