Teferi and the Slime both work really well with the lotus field card that has you sac 2 lands to play it. There's my big brain thought for the day, enjoy.
For reference.
Seems good while not too much value.
At least it's nor Lurrus again.
Not sure about Teferi.
At least this one doesn't seem too absurd compared to the other UW ones.
"Opps-all-teferis" could be a thing.
Looking forward to getting Perri Piper'd in historic again.
If UW Fish were still a thing you could maybe have a bad counter-lock with Dauntless Avenger and any creature you sacrifice to counter a spell, but that's 2 cards for a bad engine (where the other half is like... idk Voidmage Prodigy) but man does that suck, imagine losing a counter engine because it was forced to attack.

On second thought, I wonder how good suspicious Stowaway is going to be in a Stompy deck that can play it on T1. If your opponent doesn't have a T1 play themselves when they're on the draw, they have a unblockable 2-power card drawer on their ass that's protected by FoW/FoN. That seems really good, actually.
Same goes for Outland Liberator. Given the high relevance of Saga in the metagame, it seems like a very strong counterplay since it eats Sagas and everything it can produce for breakfast. And Saga decks love to durdle around in the early turns with not many spells cast. Between Liberator + GSZ (giving you effectively 8 copies) and Liquimetal Coating/Liquimetal Torque + Karn, there might be enough critical mass now for some kind of green Stompy deck blows up artifacts via Liquimetal tapping. Best case scenario would be something like this:
T1: Land, accel, Liberator
Opponent: No spells, flip Liberator
T2: Liquimetal Coating, convert their land, swing, blow up their lands every turn
Edit: A white splash could also give you access Pridemage (which would also work great with a 1-of Feline Sovereign), Knight of Autumn and KotR. Between fetches, Mox Diamond, Dryad of the Ilysian Grove and maybe even Timeless Dragon (great with Mox Diamond, would also play great with Liberator), mana consistency should be less of an issue. The access to multicolored mana (G/W, Mox + Dryad) should also make Prismatic Ending a feasible removal spell.
It would still die to its own ETB trigger before it does anything of value.
Merely having a 12/12 body on board for an instant is useful. It's not hard to translate it into 12 cards or 12 life or 12 damage or act as Show and Tell [Mosswort Bridge]; these things are however too janky to be competitive at this time.
The bigger strike against this white creature is that Liliana, Heretical Healer exists and isn't used.
The obvious path to victory here is the Johnny God Draw of T1 Ancient Tomb > Chrome Mox > Bereaved Survivor, T2 Phyrexian Dreadnought, sacs itself > transform Survivor > cast Torpor Orb and attack for 15. It's like a garbage turn 2 Emrakul.
Tomb -> Grim Monolith -> Grim monolith -> Lotus Petal -> Coco (Survivor, Survivor) -> Lotus Petal -> Dark Ritual -> Dreadnought -> dreadnought ->Torpor Orb -> Lotus Petal -> Concordant Crossroads -> Attack with transformed survivors for 30.
Your classic ABBCDBEFFGCH 12 card combo.

Seems like nice value.
No tiddy but will probably see play in standard and historic.
There's probably a "never go ash-to-mouth" joke in the somewhere but I don't have the brainpower for it right now, I'm trying to learn TypeScript
I like Red better when it doesn't just augment its burn with more burn, like... less Ashmouth Dragon, more Magma Jet, I guess. Like if I'm just going to be topdecking at least let my topdecking be choice af instead of having me hope I draw a Lightning Bolt that might do 5
I suspect just as you're suggesting. Murderous Cut for and Delve 4 would put one counter on this guy.
Cost is paid, but not with mana, so no tricks.
Recently, they template things in the way that they check what was done to cast the spell.
I would also assume that this should also include this case and it checks the actual amount of mana spent, regardless of reductions or replacements.
Unless they for some reason decide that it's no longer the way to go and change it.
