I eventually settled on five slots for those two cards, but whats the best split
There's also the tiny problem of this costing seven mana, all of it colored, but the combination of both winning the long game and keeping you alive to see it makes seven feel cheap, and there's enough behind this card that there is no need to worry about following it up with another copy unless your opponent can fire one back at you
The most common case is that you just dont play the game anymore and have no real intentions of coming back to it
With the right cards in hand, he works great as part of some combos
In real games, that trade is almost always worth it
If control or midrange decks can't deal with your indestructible creatures, that's a great way to close out the game, even after your opponent has stabilized
