Remembering that these cards are the decks best weapons against Zombies will be crucial
Cantrips Modern cantrips arent quite Brainstorm in terms of power or skill required, but they are still cantrips
Sorin can +1 and let you draw the top card of your library and lose life equal to its mana cost
And not only is it tough, but it can chew up the graveyard, to combat opposing Tarmogoyfs, Snapcaster Mages, Grim Lavamancers, dredge cards (like Life from the Loam), and presents a serious clock to the opponent
Mana value is a neat way to summarize the mana cost of a card into a number that can be compared against these other numbers in a game
Well keep with the overall toughness-based theme of the deck since that has the most support from the main deck
