Unezawa’s Jitte has proven to be incredibly oppressive, skewing games far harder than any other card even in an environment as interactive as this one. Nothing usually would illicit a groan more than putting it on the stack.

I’ve read just about ever equipment ever put to print in hopes of finding a solid replacement to maintain a solid suite of Stoneforge Mystic targets, and I’ve settled on Sword of Body and Mind. SoBaM has a steeper mana requirement, and while the protection from blue and green is a factor, I feel the large swaths of white, black and red removal will allow for far more points of interaction than Sword of Fire and Ice, for example.

I look forward to giving Body and Mind it’s moment in the sun, though I will be actively searching for possibly better alternatives as new sets release going forward.
