Today's spoilers are a mixture of great and ok red cards from the new set conspiracy. Both of today's cards have the new mechanic Dethrone, so I am going to start by explaining how this mechanic works. Dethrone targets the player with the highest life total, when a creature with dethrone attacks the player with the highest life total you put a +1/+1 counter on that creature.
The first card I am looking at today is workable but is not the best it's Treasonous Ogre. This card looks ok to begin with it's a 2/3 with two abilities but it is 4 Mana to play. The first ability is the dethrone which makes this playable and allows it to continue to get bigger, the second ability is not such a good one it is you pay 3 life to add 1 red to your mana pool. After thinking about it i did find a use for the second ability, to stop you being the target of dethrone. This card can be really good as long as you are not the player with the highest life and you have the mana to play it.
Ratings:
Ratings:
- EDH- 5 it could become big if you are being targeted and don't have the highest life
- Draft-4 workable but i probably would not pick it.
The next card is a card that is going to be a lot of fun, it's Scourge of the Throne. If you ignore the 2nd and 3rd ability it is a 5/5 flaying for 6 mana which makes it playable just as that, but with the dethrone ability it is likely to get bigger each turn. The 3rd ability is extremely strong for the first attack each turn against he player with the most life you get to untap the attacking creatures and have another combat phase. This is an absolute bomb in both the draft and EDH.

Thanks for reading hopefully by the end of today there will be another DotP video.
Ratings:
- EDH- 9 Kalia the Vast commanders are going to go crazy for this.
- Draft- 9 This is going to be the game changer and could swing a game into your favor.
