I'm still recovering from that Vines of Vastwood blowout... 🫠 Worth noting that Damping Sphere doesn't actually stop High Tide and such - it has to be a single ability that adds multiple mana. Key cards it turns off are Nykthos, Gaea's Cradle and Cabal Coffers. I've found it most effective in decks with a lot of higher cost cards, as you're punished less by the sphere when you're planning to play fewer spells per turn. I find it's effective at disrupting explosive starts, whilst not being a big enough target for anyone to direct removal towards.
It was an epic play forever engrained in my memory. About to start a winning line to no line what so ever. 😅 Ahhh good to know about damping sphere and high tide effects. Thank you for correcting. 👍👌
