I'm pulling out of my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time to drive to work.

Hello, everyone. And today, we're going to talk about the secrets of Strick-Saven.

So, let's start from the very beginning. So before we can get to the secrets of Strick-Saven,

we need to talk a little bit about Strick-Saven.

So Strick-Saven was the result of a lot of different things all coming together.

I'd been trying for a while to do an enemy-colored faction set.

Both Dragon's Tarkier and Unstable had tried to be and ended up being an ally set for different

reasons. We talked about, Jenna Helen and I talked about doing magical school, the magical school

genre, something we had discussed. Aaron and I talked about doing an incident and sorcery

only set. I have been trying to find a home to do double-faced cards, the modal double-face cards.

So there were a lot of different things we were trying to do that I kind of coalesced into

one idea, which ended up being Strickshaven.

cast or copy of incident or sorcery. It had lesson and learn, which were, lesson was a

mechanic to let you go fetch instance and sorcery, specific instance sorcery,

creatures with the, or sorry, spells with the subtype lesson in them

when you cast them.

And we have the double face cards,

some of which were a spell on one side and a permanent other side,

some of which were the deans of the schools,

there were two deans of the schools.
