MtG Arena — Standard BUG Mutate
Channel: T1GlistenerElf
Date: 2021-01-07

Mutate was, as I understand it, meant to be a version of auras that didn't constantly increase the power of their beneficiaries. As far as power and toughness are concerned, they were successful, but "for each time it has mutated" effects get rather crazy awfully quickly. That's basically the snowball that we're trying to push down the mountain.

Also, this is the introduction of four-eyed T1GlistenerElf. Shoutouts to my folks for the yellow-tinted glasses, since I use a computer for much of the day and would like to keep my eyes in good shape.

Here's the decklist for you all:
