Notes
 
Sunbird's Invocation is the real deal! It's weird, because here's a spec on a card that is entirely busted, or unplayable. Around a dollar right now. How high is the ceiling, and how much of a payoff? If it's good, it's a 3-4 of. Probably 5-6$, but then get's hated out? I think it has secret potential to be much better than annoited procession, it just all depends how reliably you can get it below cost. Floor is bulk, likely is .86-1.26. And then you have to hit the selling window. I think the key card that makes it better is depths of desire. Early disruption and ramp at instant speed.

Wily Goblin into Chandra is a T4 Invocation. If I can T5, at least 1 turn ahead of schedule, than there's really great options at 6. A metalwork Colossus deck is probably viable, as we lose sanctum and hedron archive, but this card is Insane in the archetype. The cyclers help have impactful cards to invoke into but not die on curve. Another option is a Instant/Sorcery heavy build that leads me into invocation, follow-up cryptic Serpent+ second spell, spilling my deck into play. In that list highlights are unlicensed disintegration, nicol bolas, inferno jet. Likely necessary to include cards like Opt and Hieroglyphic illumination as cost reducers, and also just decent invocation hits. Insult/injury slots in many lists, and a six drop can cast it for some blowouts. Does not work well with the cast trigger. Samut planeswalker is similar. Samut, voice of dissent is interesting having in the deck, as sometimes it will be big creature into it, swing. I like a base layer of flash control, as it allows you to stall the game to the point where you can land the spell, and then gives you decent targets for resolving.
