In terms of gameplay, Merfolk boast numerous synergies as well as a plethora of lords, or creatures that boost the power and toughness of creatures that share a type with them (getting their name from the Lord of Atlantis himself)
Its a strong deck that can overrun the other two starter decks quickly
Id be really bullish about this card right now if I didnt think there was a reasonable shot that itll show up again in Masters 25
Necromancer's Covenant The Necromancer's Covenant may not have the cachet of casual tables, but it's a strong addition to any deck because it brings a few favors to the party
Its pretty easy to Escape in this deck too, and its got a great shot at giving you back some of the artifacts, instants, and sorceries that youve used or milled away
This is, obviously, a rather narrow ability
