Heros is too OverPriced for me, no way jose

Slaughter games will be in SB(its in maybeboard currently)

Dreadbore definitely needs to go in

Not sure if you've checked but Downfall is only $5 right now, $2 more than dreadbore

$2 for 1 more mana? Nah man, i can easily cast dreadbore anyways so ill stick with that
And post rotation it wont be worth anything so why spend the extra money on it?

I understand, but the instant speed is crazy good, and Dreadbore is so slow, but I think Downfall should be at $3 after rotation. $2 difference with a playset is $8, which is good. Plus, once RTR cycles, everything in Theros will increase back because we have a limited amount of sets so Downfall will climb back to $10, then you could make a bit of profit while also having good removal for now

+1 about the instant speed. Big Xenagos giving haste to a Kalonian is not something you generally want to wait till your turn to handle. Add in planeswalker removal and it's just wonderful

Instant speed beats sorcery

But 2 mana beats 3 so they both have ups and downs
