So you wanna tell me that Dark confidant is better fixing draws or finding replacement for discarded combo pieces than cantrips?

You are missing the point: Your opponent isn't a goldfish, sitting around and doing nothing for turns. If you want to argue with the interaction with SDT to grind yout advantage, you might want play SB Counterbalance
