Funnily enough, one of the content writers for MTGGoldfish was playing around with a budget Hammer Deck that actually focused on slapping a hammer on a cheap double striker and swinging for game. Granted, this was a deck brewed for a budget deck video, so it's not optimized, but even if it were, it just comes off as an infect deck with worse evasion to me. SFM would slot into the deck, no doubt about it, but I don't think she would raise the ceiling of the deck to the point that the deck becomes too dominant, at least not with the cards in our immediate card pool. It seems about as soft to removal as Infectmetalmusic_4 wrote: ↑4 years agoReminder, SFM did just get a new toy in colossis hammer. It still has to pair with puresteel paladin or sigarda's aid but that is something new she can do besides batterskull. Also she could see play in the thopter-sword decks running around. I agree SFM should be unbanned, but I just wanted to say there are more issues than batterskull and UW control being good.
As for UrzaSword, I don't immediately see what SFM brings that Goblin Engineer can't do better. You don't really need Batterskull and GE's ability to put Sword of the Meek straight into the graveyard and its ability to "search" for any artifact seems more useful. I would definitely be open to an analysis by anyone with more experience with the deck though.
