Originally, this card cost {11}{g}. I thought it was pretty good, but no one would touch it. Too hard. Didn't want to think about it. So I dropped it by 1cc. Now, the thing is deadly... sometimes hitting the table on round 3 on the draw. It turns out that this is more exciting than broken. I mean, dumping your hand with Affinity, following up with 2 Myr Enforcers on round 2 is too much... but that's because you're taking advantage of everything you played. Dropping Killer Constrictor by drawing a card and bouncing a land is much more manageable. Deadly, but manageable.

Oh, also, the occasional card with a casting cost like this is the reason why Draco Maleficus looks a little awkward in 20XD6. I'm pretty sure that he's got enough support in this block to do some damage.
