#mtgthunder #wotcstaff Many of the original designs for Spree cards were meant to simulate the stages or goals of different heist stories. We even had D&D-style flavor words for a while! Final Showdown is meant to capture the Magnificent Seven/Seven Samurai entrenched final stand

Which brings us to the ten draft archetypes (with the text borrowed from the archetype write-up):

White-Blue Energy Fliers
Play flying creatures that get stronger the more energy you have. Use them to attack your opponent or otherwise find tricky ways to get past your opponent's blockers.

Blue-Black Card Draw
This classic blue-black control archetype employs a variety of ways to draw extra cards, then leverages them for additional effects to dominate the battlefield.

Black-Red Artifacts
Start small and go big. This black-red archetype uses a variety of artifact synergies, including the infamous affinity, to summon powerhouses from Magic's past and future.

Red-Green Eldrazi Spawn
Even the smallest Eldrazi are worthy of fear. Overwhelm your opponent with your terrifying Eldrazi horde, aided by Eldrazi Spawn tokens, in this red-green archetype.

Green-White Modified Bestow
Bestow gives you the versatility to play creatures or use them as Auras to buff others. Go tall and then dare your opponent to stop you from going wide if they can weather the storm first.

White-Black Modified Dies
In this unique take on a white-black sacrifice archetype, you're going to be modifying your creatures with counters, Equipment, and Auras for long-term advantages.

Blue-Red Energy Midrange
Embrace your inner mad scientist! Blue-red energy gives you plenty of ways to manage different types of engine-like permanents to generate overwhelming advantage over your opponents.

Black-Green Modified Adapt
This black-green adapt archetype uses +1/+1 counters to great effect, giving creatures additional spell-like triggers to dominate the battlefield.

Red-White Energy Aggro
There's no point hoarding your excess energy here, so spend it and smash! This aggressive red-white archetype will do whatever it takes with energy to keep attacking turn after turn.

Green-Blue Eldrazi Ramp
In this green-blue archetype, generate Eldrazi Spawn and then use them to summon their much larger kin—and proceed to devour the Multiverse.
