MTG Strixhaven 's new mechanics look like they're working to reduce the variance for players somewhat by giving them options, and Learn and Lesson cards are a good example of that
Putrid Imp is one of the best for that in Black, but if you need Imp #2, Cabal Initiate is almost as good and works just fine
It completely changed how we design Magic and led to us creating a Casual Play Design team focused on how each card played in a casual setting, including its impact on Commander
Our commander is also a flying lifelink so if Arna is the one swinging for that damage not only do we have evasion but we gain enough life that any opponent left alive will have a tough time killing us before our next turn
Unfortunately, most of these creatures are rather small, however, they do still pack a punch
That being said, I wouldnt at all be surprised if Wizards reveals even more last-minute spoilers later today
