mtg commander 2012 decks Angel Deck - Custom Built - Elite - - EDH Magic The Gathering Planechase 2012

allows an action with a cost of 5 or less to be played for free whenever the Genie quests

Gift allows you to give an opponent a draw, a creature, or even an extra turn in exchange for powering up the spell

This Forge Anew Bonus card is the first time that a Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth card is getting a Secret Lair reprint

Having that extra bit of speed for every single deck type in the game can be surprisingly powerful, as it can essentially put the player one turn ahead of their opponent in terms of resources

It can protect valuable cards from black discard, and can combine with library shuffling effects to improve your draw (such as Thawing Glaciers, Flooded Strand, or Ramosian Sergeant)

In practice, it means an opposing Blasphemous Act will only deal five damage to your board, and a Chandras Ignition will deal double damage to everything that isnt yours (and incidentally, only half to your creatures)
