The sheet that mine came off was from multiple cuts that contained machamps , magneton has no stats(other sheet did) and some of the number designations on the cards have errors (both Chansey and clefairy are 5/102 ) and venusaur and Zapdos are 15/102
The fact that its an enchantment is also notable
Sun & Moon era trainer full-arts dominate with 7 of the top 10 modern cards, and MEGA era MUR cards from sets still in production offer the best current entry point for collectors building long-term value
While one mana is pretty easy to pay, the ward effect has the potential to keep your creature protected across several turns, or at least tax your opponent so they cant do multiple things in a turn
I considered Channel, but Channel is an activated ability, not an alternate casting of the spell, which would make the effect seem too much like a Supreme Verdict due to being harder to counter an ability
If you just want to play Vampire Aristocrats for value without any combo kills though, I think Bartolome is still a fine commander but Clavileno provides better value
