    and no i dont use NP in mine not worth it if i can use baral, greg usually takes out a 6/6 zombie over baral. other than desert of the mindand the support removal, i dont have any cycling cards. perilous journey, the 2 cycling ID baral the search for azcanta exuisite flame and the gold zombie i find works great together

    I’ve just gone through 5.2 if BoFT with a Bolas ID and Immortal Sun deck. All objectives met. The individual cards are not broken. But the combo Might be. But there are PLENTY of Legacy cards that are way more broken than either two cards. They’ve never been touched. 

    Anyway, next time on 5.2 I’ll run a similar deck with Karn. His abilities will be helpful to kick off the combo faster...

    You  will find that that build works on about 3 to 4 other nodes as well. Mostly those that say, lose X creatures or less and X life or more. Bolas iD immortal sun como zips right through them like a hot knife through butter

       The overpowered part is that you are able to cast spells for free (<2 mana)... Among them are some drawing spells that can create "infinite" loops of drawing/casting spells.
       Its easily abusable with imminent doom or any card that gets an effect on spellcasting.
       
    But there are hardly any <2 mana spells anyway I only use 2

    Karn's issue is he cant have as many spells as NB... So you end up getting a lot of cards you can't cast. Karn can only use 5 spells at level 60... (which honestly is a mercy... easy to make this deck far better with 5 colors, specifically green)
