It reminds me of the choice players had to make with Attune with Aether where you need to get the right basic (Yes, I know the energy decks from Kaladesh were busted), especially in the 4C Energy deck
I don't care as much about longterm survivability if I can win early

Really sweet card thatll be difficult to deal with if its played early
$25 Upgrades Unsurprisingly, Y'shtola, Night's Blessed happens to be one of the most popular commanders from the set, so the most powerful additions to it have spiked in price
And without Coven, this doesnt cost so much as to mess up your turn
