Against: Rhystic Study is just Sphere of Resistance if your opponents play the game correctly
When it comes to orchestrating which card is highlighted each week, there is a method to my madness
You played one card, you got two cards' worth of effects from it
It does not grow by itself like the Evolve cards in Gatecrash
And since we're going to be proliferating way more in general thanks to more Phyrexians dying with Brimaz, Blight of Oreskos, I'm adding more counters to the deck, such as Everflowing Chalice which is totally cracked when you're proliferating it, or oil counters like Vat of Rebirth and Norn's Wellspring, and even some poison cards like Ichor Rats which adds a secondary win condition if we come up against pillowfort or lifegain decks
This two-on-two format is similar to the non-Commander version of Two-Headed Giant "players pair up in teams of two, share life totals, spells, and strategy in an effort to defeat the other team"
