@bwDraco The main issue here is that Lotus Field is not really good without Repudiate, so it's a bit risky building the deck around that combo.

You essentially need 4 cards in your opening hand to make this work: at least one land, a Llanowar Elves or another land, Lotus Field, and Repudiate//Replicate

If you're missing any one of those, the rest are not very good together, and if you have all 4, then that limits how much actual action can be in your opening hand
