Align is like tribal reveal discount e. g. Silvergill Adept except it is a lot less friendly a condition. You kinda encourage tribal play, so this would go into a Fungus deck, but another tribe may randomly pick this up if they can align already.
I wonder why align is always an alternative cost and collaborate an ability word. They fill a similar "reach this board state" niche. Seems far from ideal.
Interestingly align and collaborate favor similar creatures: Those with many creature types.
It is by design that they are similar. I specifically wanted the same aspect of the game to pull in different directions. Both states are achieved by having 3+ creatures usually, but achieving both at once will require 4+ creatures in play at a minimum.
I'm trying to reach a semi state of tribal and not tribal, and seeing what comes of it. And yes, having lots of creature types is a real power level for this set that I hope to develop with.
