Episode notes
White Is The Enchantment King
- White is the primary enchantment color with the strongest toolbox for destroying, tutoring, and benefiting from enchantments.
- It specializes in pacifism-style control, anthem boosts, auras, and rule-setting enchantments.
White's Slow Card Advantage Model
- White was given slow, steady card advantage tools to improve long-term play rather than burst draw.
- Many white enchantments now reward one-card-per-turn progression or grant incremental value.
Blue Controls Rather Than Destroys
- Blue rarely destroys enchantments but counters, bounces, copies, or steals them instead.
- Its auras focus on evasion and card advantage, and designers are exploring more graveyard interaction for blue.
