Giant + Lens -> a.k.a. how to make your spells unplayable
That possibility already existed with Shirvallah.
Yeah, and also how to make 0 mana 8/8’s. Dropping one on Turn 4 can be worth having a dead spell.
In this list, it’s never worth to make a spell unplayable
Really depends. You don’t actually lose anything card advantage-wise, it’s like you’ve played a 4 mana 8/8. Sure, it might feel bad to hit Equality or Holy Wrath, but the card could as well be at the bottom of your deck and not when you wanted it. Then again, stuff like Crystology, Potion of Heroism, Blessing of Kings doesn’t really matter. I’d rather drop an 8/8 on T4 than have those, the big minion will do some trading, saving you other removals and letting you play solitaire for longer, or it will put pressure on the opponent and force them to deal with it instead of pursuing their own game plan. And in the best case scenario it can even win you the game if your opponent doesn’t have a removal and you let’s say Steed it.
I’m not saying that hitting Giant with Lens is always good, but “it’s never worth” is plain wrong.
Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
But a 4 mana 8/8 doesn’t do much in this deck. It’s basically an otk deck. At best it will allow you to trade some early threats but that’s it. You want kill someone with a giant only. Having more draw is more useful. Top 95 legend isn’t very high to
