Description

Cards that interact with hand size and the graveyard in various ways. Some of the more common mechanics include:

  • Madness
  • Hellbent
  • Threshold
  • Reanimation
  • Milling
  • "Hand size matters"
  • Delirium
  • Cycling
  • Collect Evidence
  • Graveyard removal
  • Top of the library, including scry (due to the interaction with both milling and cycling)
  • Ways to bring a creature into play without paying the mana cost

While black and blue offer the most cards in the above themes, I've trimmed each back so that each color has equal numbers of cards and roughly similar power levels. Each color tends to have a few things it is best at: for example, white has the majority of the graveyard removal, and black is intentionally weak there (giving it room to instead focus on mechanics like hellbent and madness). White also has creature exiling, as a counter to reanimation. Blue has little creature bounce so as to weaken it against reanimation strategies.
