Epic Experiment!

[CHA1N5]

So, I played T4 for the first time in years tonight. Wow, is Epic Experiment broken. Do you all play this in your stacks? Is it problematic?

[JACO]

Nah man, we don't play that. Too busted.

Aren't all the X spells historically too powerful in T4?

Aren't all the X spells historically too powerful in T4?

Pretty much yes. Only one I play is Heat Ray, and it still manages to kill players via damage redirectors.

But some people like busted stacks that only last 3-4 turns, so to each their own.

X being in a mana cost is not strictly a sign of too powerful, but most implementations (damage, power, life, cards) are banned in my stack.  Epic Experiment seemed to toe the line, when I put it in, but now that I've played it a few times - it's functionally more powerful than drawing.

[Wagner]

Actually I remember we also use Braingeyser. It's good, but you're still limited to keeping 5 cards and if you have draw too many too early, you might end up decked.

For reference, X-spells in my stack:
- Captain's Maneuver
- Chord of Calling
- Divine Deflection
- Dominate
- Ertai's Meddling
- Flash of Insight
- Rally the Ancestors
- Shining Shoal
- Skeletal Scrying
- Spell Burst
- Wake the Dead
- Wargate
- Who/What/Where/Why/When (we errated the gain line to cap @ 10 life, because the card is otherwise so fun)
