Earlier games against Golgari Deathcreep showed me that if you kick off the dredging too soon, you can easily overlook manabase development and fall painfully behind your opponent. Sam’s happy to build up her creature swarm, while I see my buildup as a defensive wall while I wait for my dredge engine to begin. This time it’s a Conclave Phalanx, shooting her up to 26 life. The Imp is doing impeccably, holding Sam’s forces at bay, but with her building up it’s only a matter of time before she convokes out something truly disgusting. ![]() I then add a turn-6 Woodwraith Strangler, and Sam uses the Guildmage to add a 1/1 Saproing token to the battlefield. Back to me, I Darkblast her Skysweeper, while Sam convokes with her Caregiver to power out a Siege Wurm. Now turn 4, I play a Greater Mossdog while Sam adds a Nullmage Shepherd. Naturally, the Imp puts a stop to that, though Sam’s turn-3 play- an Elvish Skysweeper– tells the Imp its days are numbered. Sam, meanwhile, has deployed a Caregiver and Selesnya Guildmage, already attacking in for some early damage. I’m on the play, and I begin with a turn 3 Stinkweed Imp after two turns of impotence. Here are our notes from the customary three games. For today I’ve secured Sam as my sparring partner, and she’s chosen Selesnya United to serve in opposition. Not for nothing this is one of the most fondly-remembered sets. The designers did a very impressive job giving each guild its own unique feel, and translating the theme decks into showpieces for each guild is a perfect match. Approaching the end of our reviews of Ravnica and readying for Duel Decks: Ajani vs Nicol Bolas, we’re still finding the Ravnica set full of surprises.
