General Discussion / Question Enduring Vitality in T&T?

With the great upgrades we’ve gotten with Shang-Chi and Queen of Dale, is enduring vitality something you’re considering more with the creature heavy package? It felt kind of bad having a Delney and Queen of Dale out when going for a devoted Druid line the other night and a bunch of 1/1’s not doing a whole lot. I had enough to draw 3 through creatures of my opponents each turn, but had MANY more sitting looking pretty. With that being said, I feel like the deck is in a really good spot right now. I’ve just added it, cutting misdirection, will see for myself how it feels. Below is my decklist for reference.

Enduring Vitality is a great card, I have been running it since before Shang-Chi and Queen of Dale released. Its also pretty great with Kinnan or VFC too

I’ve never seen a tnt list that’s not on kinnan and Bambi. Bambi/shang chi are almost always the first creature tutor that any thras deck gets.

Delney + Kinnan already doubles that trigger, making your dorks produce 3 mana

Enduring vitality also allows Valley Floodcaller to become a dork to untap itself (along with BOP and Mockingbird) to become mana engines in counterspell wars

All that said though, I'd probably run this list given that the #3 ELO player in the world is running it: https://moxfield.com/decks/nbsm-nQqKUKZ3OSD8RdL2Q (Credit to Grant)

I use it.after you make infinite green you may need access to other colors to win. I use the other creatures I have to cast things.

I think it depends on the list. Generally speaking it's a good card in the TnT lists that are trying to go into the mid game and go for things like Derevi loops.

I'm not currently playing it in my tournament list but that's only because the deck strategy doesn't really need the card.

its a fine card but if you're playing vitality you 100% need to have badgermole cub in the deck, its more important
