It's easy to see why - this three-mana tap effect is good, but significantly worse than the other common removal we've looked at so far
Looking back at how the mana dorks and the Goldberry idea could both use Scuttling Sliver and those everything counters, this might be the first upgrade I might make to this deck if it struggles to win games
The card bends in your wallet, the colors wash out, and it feels nothing like a card you'd actually want to hold
I would have rather seen other reprints representing Ravnica or new card designs rather than cards iconic to other planes.
Bargain hunters should note that Japanese versions of some of these Lugia cards cost significantly less - and (of course) PSA graded copies in protective slabs will set you back a lot more
Between all the counterspells flying around, instant speed effects, and unique kindred effects to enjoy, there's a ton of power in this color combination
