however, unlike pure Combo, Combo-Aggro doesn't focus on Combo as its only win condition
This naturally also applies for any spell that is cast with an effect that states You may cast that card without paying its mana cost
Croquet Mallet gives you Rush when needed
Sokka will count himself as an Ally for his second ability
The alternate commanders for this deck arent quite as on-theme, but Rayami and Volrath are both useful if you enjoy stealing other creatures abilities
I could certainly imagine the card simply being banned just because it doesnt make for enjoyable play experiences, and having seen Aetherworks Marvel loom over Standard once before, its not hard to imagine it being too good as Turn 4 Emrakul, the Promised Ends and Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hungers are soul-crushing and game-ending
