Dear Environmental Sciences,

<3

I first met you in 2022 when I did a Set Roulette with my dear friends Danny, Wander and Frank. We had an amazing Set Roulette thanks to Secrets of Strixhaven, an amazing set for this purpose. The Lesson / Learn mechanic was in this set and the deck I won with, Boros Aggro, played Professor Symbology. I already wrote a love letter for the Prof, because I absolutely loved that mechanic in the Set Roulette and I love it even more in my Masters #5 Cube. There is no surprise I want this mechanic in this Love Letter Cube, so I need some Lessons. And one of the best cards to have in your sideboard is you, Environmental Sciences. I need you.

But the thing is, I also play you in another Cube. A Cube without any Learn cards. I play you in my cost reduction emblem Alles-2 Cube. There you are a Prismatic Vista that gains 2 life. Absolutely insane. And to be honest, I want you in this Love Letter Cube as that version, because turning the Learn cards into Civic Wayfinders just sounds way too much fun to me.

I love the -2 context that you are a fetchland that can be flashbacked, trigger prowess, adds storm. But I love your context even more when combined with Learn, now I’m just curious how you are when the -2 context will merge together with the Learn context. Can’t wait to find out, only 162 days left.

With love,

Hanjo
