 {Eidolon of Rhetoric} vs  {Ethersworn Canonist}. The eidolon passes the Bolt test but canonist can go into affinity and not slow it down and vice versa it doesn't do diddly against that deck. However by the time you cast the eidolon the affinity player has emptied his hand. Which of these two do you prefer? Run the risk of letting the storm player get to eidolon or run the risk of needing one more mana for eidolon

As an affinity player, I use two ethersworn with a pair of lightning greaves for Hexproof protection then run rampant with artifacts
