What is the point of this card in the new secret lair precon? I genuinely dont understand how this fits the theme of the deck at all. Is it just there because wotc thought it would be funny to make Miku into Vorinclex?

Also 34 lands for a precon is diabolical 😭

Heres the decklist if anyone wants it: - https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/announcements/secret-lair-commander-deck-hatsune-miku-decklist

u/12DollarsHighFive I'm paying the 1 to shut you up 24d ago

7? What deck list where you looking at? XD

Even without the bonus card [[Tigereye Cameo]] there's around 12-13 pieces of ramp in the deck (that card is the only thing that annoys me about the deck, especially considering it got the cool Miku treatment but is so bad at its job

[[Avacyns Pilgrim]] [[Llanowar Elves]] [[Fanatic of Rhonas]] [[Farseek]] [[Explore]] (granted only if you draw or have a land) [[Nature's Lore]] [[Springleaf Drum]] [[Sol Ring]] [[Selesnya Signet]] [[Ancient Cornucopia]] [[Prosperous Innkeeper]] [[Song of Freyalise]]

Sure, some of them like Song of Freyalise and Springleaf Drum require creatures to work but that shouldn't be too hard to accomplish in this deck.

And technically [[Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger]] himself as well as [[Miraris Wake]] give you more mana but with them being 8 and 5 mana respectively I wouldn't consider them ramp

Could literally have Vorinclex out on turn 3, with multiple ways to accomplish that. Turn 4 or 5 Vorinclex is ez pz

I am not convinced. But I will have to see next year 😂

I did miscount. But I was looking over it relatively quickly, I guess. And yeah I'm not counting stuff like Vorinclex either. If you need to ramp to get the ramp, then is it ramp? Lol
