U/R or Jeskai control have potential now that MAHVEL is gone, but Enigma Drake is not the finisher it needs nor the one it deserves. It doesn't generate value on its own, gets eaten by Heart of Kiran, and doesn't even become a little impressive until like turn 5. Factor in that it's a nonbo with Torrential Gearhulk and Aftermath cards, and Enigma Drake isn't where you want to be. I guess you could argue for a U/R tempo deck instead, but it is really hard to out-tempo Mardu Vehicles. --- E come vivo? Vivo! <cite>trdl23 posted [p:881532648] in Trdl answe...
