Luffy was chosen as the first character to receive the new Super Leader Parallel treatment, giving players another incredibly rare card to hunt for when the new set launches
Doesnt cast Ugin, the Spirit Dragon, Nissas sorcery ramp spells, or Evolutionary Leap, but great at casting Whisperwood Elemental, Oblivion Sower, and Dragonlord Atarka
Instead of leaving a creature behind, Briefing digs for the card to be "flashed back." Briefing also doesn't target, so Surgical Extraction isn't a clean answer and Scavenging Ooze is less effective
While this concept of a serialized card isn't new for Magic, cards with very limited printing with each copy uniquely numbered, with arguably the most well-known offering being the 1 of 1 The One Ring from the Lord of the Rings set a few years ago
Scrying for 2, drawing a card, fetching a basic, and flipping a creature from the top of your deck into play with +1/+1 counters and hexproof are all things that I'd love to doand are much stronger than some of the other rooms from AFR (such as draining for one life)
For instance: Creatures (16) Lands (22) Spells (22) Sideboard Kotiranta knew his opponents would have a lot of sideboard hate for his fast black aggro deck, but Entomb + Reanimation spells + Vampiric Tutor to help set it up, let him transform into a combo deck that would surprise people with a quick Avatar of Woe or Phantom Nishoba, leaving them looking at the Shock in their hand in disbelief
