ahhh submerge... —July 27, 2021

So there's a lot of excellent lands that exist which tap for {U}, have some other benefit, and come into play untapped: Minamo, School at Water's Edge and Oboro, Palace in the Clouds being the main two that come to mind. Minamo is another targeting outlet with all kinds of interesting and niche applications, while Oboro goes infinite with Emeria Shepherd and Second Chance. Both really strong arguments for their inclusion, but perhaps a stronger argument for their absence... is simply the existence of Submerge. After removing an Island for Tolaria, playtesting, and repeatedly drawing into hands with Tolaria, Submerge, and no other way to find an island, I kinda died inside a little. It's a rather niche happening, but one that will happen all the more frequently when I begin removing these crucial basics. This has put me in quite the pickle... do I remove islands, perhaps other lands, in favor of these tech lands? I'd especially enjoy Oboro, Palace in the Clouds so the deck can have another strong win-con...

I wish there was an easier answer for it all.
