It's funny that with the rise of Argo decks and stuff like Articats Helialith has been steadily improving. Still not particularly strong but he moved from doggy doodoo to side deck playable.
Loving the Elestrals content! Just thought it’s worth mentioning another reason why avialith isn’t great is its competing against glimbat as a card that punishes an opponent for setting multiples
I do feel avialith is a little underrated here. like in the situation described with the pta and alter is pretty solid imo. You dont end up drawing two but instead force out the backrow. the pta might be right for a lith summon but altering on summon for mostly activating a receive effect and probably no benefit from the alter position change is pretty poor. heck if avialith just ends a gorgon's on summon that isnt too bad since it forces out an answer for it that cant be used elsewhere. I do think its still on the weaker side but i think it will probably be good (probably not on moonrise release tho. i think hurricane might make people too conservative with setting for a bit)

Great vid. Agree with you on the lith ranking system.
