The weirdest thing about Curse of Vengeance is that, for the longest time, it was the most expensive curse!

Imagine not blindly casting the combo card and having something like a Lantern of Insight up first. Maybe even just scry? I don’t know, I kind of feel like if you completely whiff a soulbeast it’s your fault.

Honestly, Curse of Vengeance isn’t one I really use for its effect. It’s in my Lynde deck, and 90% of the time, I’m just going to sacc it so that it attaches to me and can then be transferred for free draws. That’s actually how I won a game recently. I stayed low, just providing some control, and kept saccing Curse of Vengeance with Claws of Gix until I drew into my more powerful pieces. By then, the other players were in a stalemate and my boardstate had been slowly buffed up and ignored. I just began flinging curses and played some powerful enchantments until both my opponents died.

Honestly, if you’re playing any super turtley combo deck that involves white, you could feasibly play curse of vitality on yourself to make you gain life whenever someone attacks you. Is there a better way to this? Yes, many in fact. Is it still technically a use case for the card? Yes, barely.

Aeon Engine is really not that hard to use well. How many artifact untappers do we have in our artifact decks? Let's just go ahead and get that extra turn after only one opponent. It's not amazing, but it's far from "the worst yadda yadda." The click bait is high. Same with Curse of Vengeance. Just because people don't know how or when to use it doesn't mean it's bad. "Picking a loser turn one" isn't really what it's about. It's easy to combo out with Yawgmoth and get lots of value from this card as you KO your first victim and get back a bunch of life you paid. Oh and the Loreseekers stone is top heavy, but it really has been excellent at drawing big time in certain decks. I used it in Kurkesh who copies the ability, so your hand goes from 0 to 6 for 4 mana. Or you can use it in a Zirda deck to draw 3 for 1 from an empty hand. The lack of imagination or just the desperate attempt at click bait is outrageous.
