12:53 I view the "Modify Death" archetype less like an aristocrats strategy, but moreso a midrange strat that compensates you for frequently attacking and forcing trades in combat.
I think you forgot about the metastatic angel for the black white deck, as it lets you get more counters on everything everytime you play a creature, which black and white with a lot of cheaper creatures, which also easily get counters, will let you do, so you spread you counters, play a new creature, metastatic angel procs your whole army gets stronger, you attack again, trade some in, they die you profit again... its decent, not super powerful but great fun. = )
Wouldn't be worth it, I don't think. You would have to get both of the BG energy rares to even consider it, and have a lot of energy stuff AND a lot fixing of the right colours. Plus, the green enchantment doesn't seem that good even if you have a lot of energy, at least in Limited.
I get the feeling that having a good curvenwill be hugely important in this set. Aggro runs against growing vreatures, control can't kerp wall good tempo.

I am an expert on an archetype for once. The Eldrazi win through collecting the tears of your opponents.
"Cranial Ram is basically Cranial Plating with legs." I dont know why this made me laugh!!
Limited is going to be SO fun with this set

I think you'll be able to go into 3 colors pretty often and end up with a more robust deck
Amonkhet had -1/-1 counters as a cost for effects, black white could really have used a modification that kills creatures, seems hamfisted currently.
i will be ecstatic if i can get the izzet deck to work, but i'm not going to force it
I wonder if you can assemble a 5c energy deck that’s decent enough. Prob not, but I wonder anyways

I skipped drafting Guilds of Ravnica so I can draft this set more
Your years of foresight paid off
