It was easy to imagine a turn 3 Gideon of the Trials making an emblem and then Pact of Negation being used to stop whatever potent play the opponent had to make, not to mention being able to make the same kind of play on turn 4 with a buffer in loyalty that meant that Lightning Bolt (already on the downswing as a card seeing play) wouldnt ruin your day
You might even find a card from Magic s past that isnt in the set at all
Cards like Tiana, Natural Talent, and Pepa Madrigal, Sensitive Sister, combined with new songs like Trials and Tribulations on the Amber side, were great incentives to try for the color notorious for its Singers
In the end, I chose to take the action that would produce the largest number
The introductory training system taught me the essentials of the game in a way that wasnt too difficult to grasp, and the cards provided in the beginner sets have enough variety that I was able to get a feel for how different archetypes and mechanics function in the context of the larger metagame
