Madcap Skills

Boosting Auras in Limited

Is design (or maybe this is development) pushing auras in limited? Seems like in the past few sets a lot of very powerful auras have been present (spectral flight, knightly valor, pursuit of flight, madcap skills), where before that auras didn't seem all that useful.

I think R&D (and by that I really mean development) has been more willing to push auras power wise to start making them viable in limited.

Why was Madcap Skills a common? That card lost me a lot of games in the three prereleases I played in. And it combos well with Spire Tracer and Alpha Authority.

I agree that the card is in the gray area between common and uncommon but it can go either way and for this set, development felt it was needed at common (I assume for limited purposes).
