Budget Options Lots of werewolves are pretty inexpensive, which is good news for your budget
Theyre most commonly used for casual play, playtesting, and formats like Commander or Cubeespecially when you want to try a deck before buying expensive cards (or when youd rather not shuffle your rent payment)
Sure, Ephemerate is aggressively costed, but it cant untap your lands, untap your mana rocks or perma-steal creatures youve temporarily gained control of
Your creatures will enter the battlefield tapped after that, but this card at least gives you a turn of damage prevention
Kosei, Penitent Warlord makes up for that when you assemble a trio of mods onto it: an aura, an equipment, and a counter (+1/+1, -1/-1, keyword, whatever)
If you go with something like Sheoldred, you can even offset the loss of life
