If one of your creatures disappoints you in battle, you can always use Summary Execution to sacrifice it to draw cards and gain life
A 1/4 with ward 1 defends itself well, and just by attacking and conniving, you can boost Raffine and other creatures you control, and fill your graveyard for shenanigans and value
Format shifts, tournament results, and the occasional move nobody saw coming can push a card from a forgotten bulk rare to a forty-dollar cash grab before most players even notice it's happened
After all, these are just boring ol dime a dozen tokens that could be acquired anywhere else
Also, remember that Cruel Entertainments controller can be one of the spell's targets, even if it isnt as funny that way
Due to the value of the cards being reprinted, the new sets are already racking up eye-watering prices on Amazon
