Each day leading up to the release of the new Universes Beyond set, I'm denoting my picks for the most powerful and flavorful cards from each game in the main series

Swords of X & Y I have always loved these Swords, mostly because of my appreciation for symmetrical cycles

The deck lost Hiram, and its still taking down tournaments

Cloud, Midgar Mercenary Rating: 7/10 Stoneforge Mystic is an incredibly powerful card when you get to build around it, and it has been a staple in many Constructed formats

I kind of view Quicksilver Amulet as a staple for Commander / EDH decks, which most players stuff with large, high-casting cost creatures
