I am thinking this set will have cool things for Kadena. Is the set out now?

Prerelease is next weekend, full release is the 27th.

Um, I think cream of the crop is useless in the deck no? The manifested units have 2 power so you look at the top 2 cards. But you already do that when you manifest dread with the commander...

It's about stacking for the many other Manifest triggers and activations in the deck. If I get one from Zimone, she resolves first, then CotC, so then the next card is ready to Manifest with another effect and we move anything we don't want out of the way. So in the end, you're digging 4 cards deep into the deck and getting a sort-of scry on the second set of cards.

​​​I guess it helps if you manifest with something else after the Zimone one but I feel like that is very rare. If anything, now that I think about it, I guess it lets you set up your next draw out of 2 cards. But that's pretty much it. So it doesn't even let you prepare your next Zimone dread trigger for the next turn unfortunately... And if they're both bad you still have to put 1 of them on top or the opposite, if they're both good ur forced to put 1 on the bottom 😭 Anyway, I'm going on a stupid tangent, my point is that this card seems good in a deck with a lot of regular manifest. Manifest dread is so much more versatile that this effect doesn't feel that important. And it seems like with this deck you'll do regular manifests 2 or 3 times a game max
