UR Aggro wants to pressure us quickly with Slickshot Show-Off and burn like Burst Lightning, so Erode is cheap, efficient removal for their early threats and helps stabilize the board. Clarion Conqueror gives us a 3/3 flying body to block or race while shutting off any relevant activated abilities they might lean on. We cut Sazh's Chocobo since its small early body is a poor blocker against their aggression and dies to Burst Lightning before it grows, and trim Esper Origins' slower value in favor of more immediate interaction. Prioritize stabilizing the board early since this matchup is a race where their deck wants to go over the top with Burst Lightning's reach.
