Coldsnap was an ambitious set, built on a MaRo-driven myth of a lost set. It was created to make Ice Age into a real block, but it fell short of most of its design goals. The designers wanted us to like Cumulative Upkeep, but few of the cards were even playable in draft.

Dissension has a few nice tournament staples aside from the obvious shocklands – let’s take a look at the set!
