Take it when

Choose useful doors on curve, defend with Room effects, then unlock remaining doors or sacrifice spent Rooms to turn the same physical cards into a longer-game advantage.

What to take next

Cast Smoky Lounge for its red cost when you can afford the setup; its next first-main mana helps cast Rooms or unlock doors. Later unlock Misty Salon for a flyer sized by all your unlocked doors.

Wrong pick

Smoky Lounge's mana cannot cast ordinary creatures. A Room is one permanent, so sacrificing it loses both doors; unlocking is a sorcery-timed special action, while its resulting triggers can be answered.

Mana & splash

Keep the colored sources needed for early spells. A synergy payoff does not automatically justify a splash.

Interactions from the card text, not a ranking.

Creeping PeeperIts blue mana can cast enchantments, unlock doors or turn a permanent face up. It cannot pay for an ordinary instant or creature spell that is not an enchantment; check the spell's actual types.

GlassworksThe three-mana red door deals four to an opposing creature when unlocked. Its trigger can be answered, although the later payment to unlock an existing Room itself does not use the stack.

Misty SalonThe four-mana blue door creates a flying Spirit sized by unlocked doors as its trigger resolves. It counts this newly unlocked door, and it can be cast without red mana or Smoky Lounge.

One-pick Draft

A vigilant body turns a spent Room into two damage and a card by tapping and sacrificing it. Sacrifice the whole physical Room, including both doors, only when its remaining value is no longer needed.

Sealed vs Draft

A vigilant body turns a spent Room into two damage and a card by tapping and sacrificing it. Sacrifice the whole physical Room, including both doors, only when its remaining value is no longer needed.
