Cards in Mystery Booster will have the original set symbols and numbering of one of their printings
We have seen control decks get away with barely any two-mana counterspells for a while now, but that doesnt mean they didnt need it
Shipping costs and import taxes also change the math
Every mana counts here, so on turn three, if your plan is to cantrip further, you should try to hold back your land drop if possible
Sadly, its difficult to go much higher since Dragons arent terribly useful for card draw or ramp, especially since they generally have high casting costs, and we cant lose slots in those important categories if we want the deck to function well
Nevertheless, they are absurdly powerful theft commanders, just make sure you're talking to the table before you start playing to make sure everyone knows what they're in for.
