Thoughts

Things are still settling out with the shake-up of Tezzeret and the constant cycle of Vintage. Cat numbers are down. Really down. Consign to Memory numbers basically doubled, which is no surprise.
Someone played Necropotence! One copy instead of four.
Honestly, with Raker Shops numbers as they are, paying a bunch of life to pass the turn feels risky. Maybe I’m wrong, but I still won’t be registering Necropotence for a while.
