new lotus card mtg Black - Proxy Add three mana of any one color to your mana pool. My theory for the Aetherdrift

Demonic Pact is a cool card and all, but you have to build a really particular kind of deck to be in the market for an effect that slow, so it seems weird to print a lot of cards that do that

Its a must-play for Cat decks, and its duplication ability is just so powerful and open that not running it is probably a mistake

This can range from only having cards with an even mana cost ( Gyruda, Doom of Depths ) to having extra cards in your deck ( Yorion, Sky Nomad )

Emrakul gains control of all creatures a player controls permanently

If you want to cast it on-curve, you need an Assassin on turn one or two, and if your curve is low enough to consistently be getting that, you dont need this much ramp anyways
