This will almost always be strong, but especially in decks that - you guessed it - make a lot of mana
Wrenn rarely ends the game alone, but it consistently sets up turns where burn spells, retrace effects, or graveyard recursion explode into massive tempo swings
Another notable omission is [[Bumi, Unleashed]], which combos beautifully with [[Ashaya, Soul of the Wild]] for infinite combat steps as long as Bumi deals combat damage to a player
You lose a creature or two, now you are up by all those nontokens sacrificed
The power to give toxic, hexproof and unblockability, is almost a Mother of Runes effect, and Phyrexian mana makes it sneaky flexible
