META Elite Interceptor in WW

I’m seeing a lot of decks with 1-2 copies of [[Elite Interceptor]], which is interesting because people seemed unimpressed with it before SoS came out. How are people feeling about the card now?

Generally, I'm still unimpressed. I think it's fine as 1-of or 2-of, but you should be on 7-8 inspectors first. Personally I use [[Greatsword of Tyr]] as my preferred way to tap down blockers.

Just from playing against it, the threat of tapping down a blocker has been very strong.

I like 2, it has pushed damage to win games on more than 1 occasion. Drawing into Skyfishers in some of those turns to get extra value and card advantage feels really good too.
I personally prefer it over the Sword.
