This is today's "preview card of the day":
Oooh. Cards. And life.
The Augury Adept is a pretty cool take on the "pal who gives you card advantage" archetype embodied in other cards like Shadowmage Infiltrator and Dark Confidant. The best thing, of course, is the potential of an extra card per turn. A resolved, defended Confidant or Infiltrator is an exceptional beating, and quickly becomes too much card advantage to recover from. Add in the potential for bonus life as a bulwark against aggro, and the Adept seems quite solid.
However, unlike the Infiltrator, it won't be some much infiltrating as simply attacking, so if you want to reap those card and life benefits, you need to keep the field clear. However, in a W/U control build, this may not be such a problem.
For super bonus fun, until October, you'll be able to play the Adept side by side with the Shadowmage in the same deck. Neat, eh? Shadowmoor and Shadowmage, together.
