It’s literally not a mythic though? It’s a rare the alt art is just a direct ultimate masters box topper art. You’d be shocked to learn ultimate masters is not on mtg arena.
@@zackestin1368 I thought that might be the case, didnt know for sure. I am glad to hear it is just a rare. I know they started doing this mythic upshift only for the alt art thing recently on arena (as I bought the alt art for the cute little animals from horror set and they are "mythics")
In monoblack EDH +/ Brawl, Cabal Stronghold is just playable until you require colourless pips or jam too many nonbasics in your deck. There are quite a few board states that you have 3 or 4 basic swamps and Cabal doesnt do anything meaningful. Since in Brawl, you can conjure tron lands (basically into play), Cabal can filter that mana to make more black mana for you (even if its a 4 colourless being made into 4 black). That is upside for running tron lands and Cabal. Could you make a G/B deck that tries to get as many basic swamps out and you tutor for Cabal? Yes. This seems like a narrow strategy. Maybe Pioneer is slow enough to play monoblack with cabal, to use the burst of mana. Brawl: basic swamps in land ratio of 29/41 is just acceptable but I wouldnt play fewer swamps in monoblack. Other constructed formats, I think Cabal is a nice touch but as 'a happy accident' to generate more mana.

Cabal stronghold seems pretty bad in a deck not spamming basic swamps, ngl 😅
Merry Christmas☠🌲
14:35 Maybe you should've used Karn +1 to make pithing needle a creature and damnation for the one ring i guess?
I concur.
and for no reason, they make it a mythic.
Edit: Just the alt art has the mythic symbol, crafted with rare wildcards. That isnt confusing at all.
The alt art has a mythic symbol, but the craftable version's a rare
