Magic: The Gathering: 10 Most Powerful One-Mana Creatures In Standard Right Now
6. Edgewall Innkeeper
The adventure mechanic is one of the newer and more flavourful elements in MTG, allowing what appears to be a standard creature card to obtain more value if you’re willing to wait a little longer for it to reach the board. Edgewall Innkeeper is a stable in any deck with a heavy adventure theme as he allows you to obtain maximum value from each card you play.
As well as his ability triggering regardless on whether you send your creature on the adventure or not, this card stacks better than most as having multiple of these guys on your board will refill your hand with just one adventure.
What’s more, sometimes you’re in a tricky spot and need board pressure, thus are forced to play the creature directly from your hand without sending it on an adventure – while this isn’t ideal, the card you draw right away from Edgewall Innkeeper makes this reality much less devastating.
