The cost can be very easily offset and earn you more mana than you could ever need each turn if you build your deck all around kindred creatures that all share the same creature type
it's a tough choice, but if you defeat everyone, it's the same
Like the other decks, theres a very clear strategy, and this time it revolves around creatures, big creatures, and smashing the hell out of the rest of the table
Cheap key cards: Llanowar Elves, Elvish Mystic, Cultivate, Pelakka Wurm, End-Raze Forerunners, Beast Within
It also goes very well with a lot of shuffle effects from land fetch cards and any excess life gain tools you might have
But this equipment is super useful in fairer decks that use the Bracers to double up good effects like those on Orthion, Hero of Lavabrink, Feldon of the Third Path, Alaundo the Seer, Dynaheir, Invoker Adept, etc
