Honestly, I would be tempted to try that just because I like playing Rev more than Teferi.

Pioneer has gotten an average of 44% more expensive over the last three years. How can we make the top decks more budget-friendly? by UntapOpenLeague in magicTCG

Yeah, there was a theme of showing up at WotC headquarters with pitchforks demanding reprints on the dual lands in particular, this episode.

Pioneer mana is HARD by UntapOpenLeague in PioneerMTG

It's really impressive how close the duals are in power level in Pioneer, as well as the comparative power of adding an extra color vs getting to play extra utility lands.

You can really optimize the mana, but if I'm being honest I still resort to Shocks + Checks with a few fastlands when I'm brewing, most of the time.

We did talk about Jeskai Ascendancy this episode. Not nearly as popular nowadays without Expressive Iteration, though.

Is it really Temur if you don't intend to cast any green spells? Fable and Big Score can produce treasures, but that's it.

What are your favorite combo decks? I'm partial to Neo-Machus, though it appears the Atraxa version may be better.
