Undying, on the other hand, sees that the creature has a +1/+1 counter and doesnt trigger since the creature doesnt meet its restrictions
Early on I was playing Thought Scour but I havent really had any trouble fuelling my Uros or finding spells to return with my Mystic Sanctuaries, and having to mill my opponent when I wanted to draw a card Id just Sanctuaried to the top occasionally felt awkward, so I moved to trying out Hieroglyphic Illumination instead and have been happy
[c]Preordain[/c] is the first of these cards
The problem is that Magic is a game and each card has a functional place in that game
Because casting a Lizard pings your opponent before it enters the battlefield, this makes all your Lizards enter with a counter, which is pretty strong, and putting counters on non-lizards isn't a massive challenge either
That makes Syr Konrad really enticing as a way to slowly grind down the table, especially if you can clone multiple copies of him
