Gideon, the Stalwart Superadon walked through the corridors of Multiverse Tower until he reached the sanctum of Jace, the Brain Thinker. He knocked on the door. It was a hollow, knocking sound -- the kind of sound you would hear when the fist of justice meets birchwood.

The door opened. "I've been expecting you," sneered Jace, his hooded trenchcoat billowing in an unfelt wind. "What is it you wanted?"

"Well, uh," sputtered Gideon, "Nissa said you were a stupidhead. I am telling you this because liberty."

Jace's eyes turned dark, with a fire that mirrored the blackness of my very soul. "Well then," he said. "I'll show her who's a stupidhead." He whirled around, slamming the door behind him, retreating to begin his plot for revenge.

Gideon turned and walked back through the corridors to his room. Entering, he removed a cloth covering a crystal ball. "He believed it, Ajani. And you're sure this will make Chandra like me?"

Ajani's face in the crystal ball smiled. "Oh yes, everything will work out perfectly." The camera flies through the crystal ball and we see Nicol Bolas, wearing a plastic Ajani halloween mask

Those are at least useful for cards that already existed, and they can at least do things with Changelings.

This one can't do even that.

Allies and slivers existed before this, are popular, and will almost certainly see print again. Devoid is... a bad filler mechanic.

It taps for C without damaging you so it's better than City of Brass. It makes sense as a way to let you play devoid cards and C cards in the same deck with the colorless matters stuff.

I assume devoid will be back whenever there are eldrazi around.

Our market research shows that players were confused why you would ever want to spend colored mana on colorless spells even though there are like four devoid cards in every pack, so we decided to spell it out for them. Besides, Creative insisted that the mana needed to be incompatible with Ghostfire, so there was really nothing else we could do.

I mean there's almost no plausible scenario where it matters to anyone ever so you might as well go for clarity. The only one I can think of is modern eldrazi both branching out into a bunch of different colors for eldrazi and playing Engineered Explosives in its sideboard.

Pretty sure that playing blue also marks you as being extremely unlikely to have sex (LSV aside) so that's a real catch-22 you've got going there
