For Challenge # 072. The card from Scars of Mirrodin that looks back at Mirrodin block and answers it. In 2004, Affinity was a monster, and there were a number of answer cards in Champions of Kamigawa. Samurai of the Pale Curtain, for examaple, tried to function as an answer to modular by stopping it from triggering.
Kamigawa, though, just couldn't come up with straightforward answers to the problem at hand. Truth is, Simple Rector may not be enough either, since it tries to solve the problem one round to late. But when it comes down, it knocks out one 70% of the permanents in Affinity, then makes a lot of future draws wasted. It's certainly a start.
Couldn't tell you if this is fair in white, though. I figured, dealing with small stuff, making up rules and white's preexisting link to cogs make this fine.
