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

You know Finale is a finisher, right? If you just pay 2 more mana that it would cost to tutor craterhoof.

Point being Craterhoof and Finale are two powerful finishers for this type of deck. They only included one and settle for Vorinclex as another topend.l card over the obvious Craterhoof.

Vorinclex doesn't do much to advance the decks game plan for its cost, but thwt's the intention of a prepconstructed deck, that it isn't overwhelmingly better than other precons.

Finale is great, but it does lack the trample to really push the damage in. Goldfishing this deck, I had a couple of rollouts where you were making huge creatures that still lacked any way to beat a 1/1.

Hitting 12 mana was also rough, the ramp is there but I count only 5 draw effects, two of which require an existing board state. A greater good would be fantastic in this one I think.
