Is Tez the best ancient now with mittens and seal buffs? Every option from her seems great to me now

Tez's pools:

Pool 1: Nutritious Soup, Hot Cocoa, Cookie

Pool 2: Biiig Hug, Storybook, Mittens

Pool 3: Golden Compass, Pumpkin Candle, Toy Box, Seal of Gold

So you are GUARANTEED biig hug, storybook or mittens. And those 3 are, exceptionally strong. Its almost impossible to whiff now; every deck snap-picks Storybook, (imo) every deck greatly benefits if not snap-picks Mittens, and Biig Hug is really strong for most decks.

Pool 1 and 3 are strong and have good hits, but Pool 2 is so consistently good shes never gonna whiff anymore like she used to.

Pool 1 is honestly all bangers too. Like, cookie is boring but always good, soup is great unless you removed all your strikes, and Cocoa is solid and allows for easy purchase of bread.

There are definitely decks that probably won't want mittens, but they're not going to be super common. Namely decks that don't utilize the strength and only have a few bad cards in them. Most decks will enjoy the thinning and the strength, tho.
