Damage dealt to battles still results in that battle losing that many defense counters
Cards like Talrand, Sky Summoner and Otharri, Suns' Glory spam creatures to overwhelm their opponents, making room for cards that synergize with their tokens and push them over the threshold
However, the situation is much better than that since we also get three solid commanders, Strix, and some non-negligible reprints in [card]Decree of Pain[/card], [card]Strategic Planning[/card] and [card]Mirari[/card], not to mention the [card]Sol Ring[/card] and [card]Command Tower[/card]
