If all your value engines are destroyed and you're left with a Ludwig Von Drake, you'll struggle to eke out a victory
Mausoleum Guard makes us wait for our value, though when it comes, it comes with flying (which is worth an extra mana or two)
Matoya, Archon Elder is a sweet draw engine, and I can see her fitting into Kenessos sea creatures, Tales of Middle-earth blue-green decks like Elrond and Galadriel, and shell also just generally be a good engine piece in graveyard strategies that surveil a lot, like Mirko, Obsessive Theorist
This is a very powerful deck that plays inexpensive creatures with the magecraft ability (which provides a buff whenever an instant or sorcery is cast), such as Dragonsguard Elite, Archmage Emeritus, Quandrix Pledgemage, etc
