    Non land makes a big difference vs Revolt. Treasure could combo well with Void

      Yeah I missed the nonland part on the first read and thought wtf this is a better Thoughtseize in eternal formats!

      Treasures work well but not sure if there’s enough reliability otherwise for this to be worthwhile in standard.

        Probably not this card but the rare/mythic Void cards might be severely undercosted if they can be enabled turn 2 or 3. Generous Plunderer or the blue Siren maybe

        This might depend on the warp cards that get revealed. We already know of a card with a 1 mana warp, so I think if more cards with cheap warp costs exist and they are otherwise playable, then this card might be playable as well.

        This also depends on standard. From what I can tell, it’s no longer a turn 3 format, so you might not need to thoughtseize/duress on t1 anymore, meaning you can hold this until it’s more convenient.

        This definitely does not replace duress/thoughtseize though. Those cards are good against control because they allow you to continue your turn afterwards, costing only 1 mana. This card feels better in a dedicated discard or midrange-ish deck that already can reduce its cost to 1 somewhat consistently.
