Each pattern has a speed modifier that represents how much faster the deck can win with that ability: "without paying its mana cost" (speed -2) free casting is always dangerous "return from graveyard to battlefield" (speed -2) reanimation cheats mana costs "additional combat" (speed -1) extra combat phases multiply damage "search your library" (speed -1) tutoring increases consistency "cascade" (speed -1) free spells from the top A critical detail: if the commander costs 5 or more mana, the speed modifier is halved
These can appear in Modern Horizons 3 Play Boosters 10% of the time, and an additional 6.67% of the time, they will appear in traditional foil (for a total of 1 in 6 Play Boosters where they can appear)
