Premodern archetypes that play Bottomless Pit
- Pit Rack: At the beginning of each player's upkeep, that player discards a card at random. Against control that is often the counterspell or the land they were saving, and it hits you too, so cast it when your own hand is nearly empty. You control its trigger: in their upkeep, put The Rack's trigger on the stack first, so the Pit resolves first and the Rack counts the smaller hand.
