Capture of Jingzhou has never been reprinted in paper, so unless you have a copy from Portal Three Kingdoms you're missing a Time Warp effect in your taking-turns deck
The biggest value is destroying blood, clue, food, Maps, treasure, and powerstone tokens
Even green has interesting options at three mana, like Loot, Exuberant Explorer, who eventually taps to cheat out cards from the top of your deck, and Freestrider Lookout, which staples a land drop into practically all of your interaction
But instead of actual Pokmon, you collect cards and participate in a card battle instead
If you're in a meta that simply demands more removal, you likely know what removal you prefer and you should drop out a few extraneous creatures and throw in those answers
