I need to run 3 anti-spell, it's one of the most important cards and it'd be stupid/inconsistent to not run 3. I don't need to special summon every turn (in fact, I only really need to do it once to get the lock down) so 3 pot of consistency is perfectly perfect. as for magic planter, it has 6 targets. I've played many duels where my opponent has gotten rid of my simorgh, making my art of transformation a useless card on the field. Magic planter lets me get rid of it and draw 2, so it's not dead at all. :p
