If you like Doom Blade, how about a worse one
Cards like Baral, Chief of Compliance and Mercurial Spelldancer love to live in spellslinger-style decks, and Spelldancer is even a Phyrexian
I could see a card that gives the player and other non-Phyrexian creatures they control Hexproof or Ward, and a clause that says Whenever you gain a counter, each opponent loses 2 life. That would cover defenses for Poison while also leaving the card in a position where its still playable with Energy and Experience counters
Initially, I focused on gaining lore as quickly as possiblewhich is good, gathering 20 lore first is how you winbut I did so at the expense of paying attention to my opponents lore and cards in play
But this is a brand-new archetype - phasing and exiling matters
This Ascian is a major antagonist of the Shadowbringers arc of FFXIV, and this shows in his MTG card
