    I like this and find it a lot more elegant than some suggestions like "can't be played if your deck contains a blue card." Although still a little ugly from a design perspective, I also wouldn't mind...

    There is a series of posts a few pages back from Zturgeon, a fantastic pilot of this deck, where he goes over some of his deckbuilding logic and sideboard strategies.

    I mostly agree on Karn, although making blockers can actually be valuable I'm not sure if he's any better than the swath of 4cmc CA engines we already have access to.

    Re: [DOM] Dominaria (Spring 2018)

    I agree, easy casting cost, generates card advantage, and makes a blocker/threat to protect himself if necessary. Its not particularly broken but it's a nice card for grindy matchups.

    Stompy is usually trying to land a turn 1-2 moon effect in 80% of matchups, they run 27 mana sources for a reason. The deck is already built to work with sol lands tapping for R. I think this card...

    My thinking was that it plays around both countermagic against stoneblade and teeg against maverick, although the latter doesn't see a ton of play. By Force is certainly worth considering though.
