Rune-Scarred Demon

Exsanguinate

Faebloom Trick
3 Even if this didn't tap something, it'd be a pretty nice rate -- adding the tap to the mix makes it a lot more likely your new flyers can get in for a hit, too.

Divine Resilience
1.5 This is good at blanking removal, not so good at winning combat -- and you kind of need both these days for a trick to be exciting.

Uncharted Voyage
3 These 4-mana "Time Ebb" effects always tend to perform well. They give you good 1-for-1 removal that can even be disruptive, and adding Surveil to the mix is nice.

Bake into a Pie
3.5 It's a little expensive but makes up for that in a big way with that food token.

Wary Thespian
2.5 Green isn't super graveyard-oriented in the format, but the solid stat-line and card selection this offers will be welcome in pretty much any Green deck.

Felidar Savior
4 For 4 mana, you get 4/5 worth of stats, 2/2 of which effectively has haste, and 2/3 of which has lifelink. That's an amazing rate, and counters and life gain have support in the format.

1.5 This stat-line is pretty bad these days, and Haste is too narrow of a keyword ability for this to be very useful.

Elementalist Adept
2 1 toughness prowess creatures can underperform, since they often need two triggers to survive being block by a 2/2, but Flash being in the mix helps make it more likely you can find a window to get in with it.

Sire of Seven Deaths
5 All of those keywords means it's basically impossible to block or attack through the Sire, and it'll also gain it's controller tons of life. Ward makes sure your opponent gets punished hard if they can kill it.

Pack 1 Pick 2: Hero's Downfall
Strongbox Raider
2.5 Triggering Raid on this makes it a very nice 2-for-1, but a 4-mana 5/2 is otherwise abyssmal.

Vampire Soulcaller
2 Not being able to block is a big downside, as it makes it way harder to generate a 2-for-1 with this than with something like Gravedigger.

Pack 1 Pick 3: Eaten Alive
Boltwave
1 This might just be a 0, but there are enough spell payoffs in the format that I'm cutting it a little bit of slack. The main problem is that a spell that only does direct damage doesn't impact the board at all -- sometimes casting it feels like mulliganing.

1.5 It's temping to imagine scenarios where you bounce a creature with an "enters" trigger or help a creature dodge removal, but this is mostly just an awkward bounce spell.

Burglar Rat
2.5 This is always a solid Limited creature. It's certainly not a full-blown 2-for-1, but it gets a card up front and then you have a body around to block or sacrifice.

3 Not going to be as good here as it was in Crimson Vow, as decayed zombie tokens aren't everywhere, but it's still petty awesome when you do have something expendable to give up.

Claws Out
1.5 // 2.5 If you're good at going wide and you have like 4+ cats, this'll be worth playing for sure. If you're not lowering the cost and don't have enough creatures in general, it's unplayable.

2.5 A 4-mana 4/3 with Ward 2 is pretty decent, as the Ward heps offset some of the problems of that stat-line, and it gives it more time to grow.

Fleeting Flight

1.5 This has two weak, narrow effects. And while having the option to choose the most useful one is nice, it's not enough to make it something that makes the cut consistently.
