If I've got Elrond and Herd Baloth on the field and cast the Cryptic Annelid I showed you earlier, I'll pay four mana, scry 1, scry 2, scry 3 and end up with an additional 17 power on board in the form of three 4/4 beast tokens, a 1 power Cryptic Annelid and six +1/+1 counters
The deck had targeted removal in the form of Swords to Plowshares, Generous Gift, Dispatch and Crush Contraband but they are insufficient
However, my aim isnt to get the most powerful cards
