And after all my hours working on Kain and trying to get it right, Dillon came up with a version that I thought was just perfect
Furthermore, while the healing isn't as great as a Venusaur ex and Butterfree deck, the high HP values of Dialga ex and Arceus ex make the 10-20 HP heal each turn a nice bonus
Fearless Swashbuckler I like this card as one of the few Izzet payoffs that care about vehicles: Fearless Swashbuckler gives them haste and rewards you for attacking with both a pirate and a vehicle by letting you draw three cards and discard two
Im a big fan of noncreature tokens in general, since they give R&D more options when designing resource-generating effects than just draw a card. In the best cases, they can open up more nuanced resource-management decisions even for aggro decks, which Im definitely looking forward to here with Anje, Voldaren Bloodcaster and Falkenrath Forebear
Graveyard hate and artifact hate are the two most swing-and-miss categories: in almost every case, they are either scored 5 or 1, so it's either the single card you want to sideboard in the most or completely unplayable, depending on the matchup
