The real question is does that guy suddenly let hatebears style decks win against decks that they weren't already winning against with cards like aven mindcensor or leonin arbiter? It's certainly more powerful than either of those, but it might still be too fair outside of swamp, go -> dark ritual, opposition agent in response to your fetch.

It should roll a die and copy the spell that many times. Probably do the half thing where 1/2 is 1, 3/4 is 2, 5/6 is 3.

Is there a reason why you didn't include the bottom line of the card frame like the larger image? The little sliver of card art in the small version keeps bugging me.

Yeah I mean the largest cEDH tournament ever just happened and Mono-W Heliod Stax made T4, those decks are doing fine. I'm pretty sure this card actually pushes both casual and completive players away from tutors and fetches feeling completely free and difficult to punish, because a lot more people are playing black spells.

the lower frame of the top image is just a flip of the top part and real sloppily done (look at the lower left and right corners) and this is just a proof of concept hoping that someone better than me does it properly

For the academies consideration: Bust Redd

Creature (8)
4x seasoned pyromancer
4x simian spirit guide

Instant (6)
2x valakut awakening
4x lightning bolt

Sorcery (17)
4x boom // bust
3x cleansing wildfire
3x crack the earth
4x pillage
3x shatterskull smashing

Planeswalker (11)
4x Chandra, acolyte of flame
3x Chandra, torch of defiance
2x Sarkhan the masterless
1x Ajani vengeant
1x Chandra, heart of fire

Land (18, 23 w/spell lands)
3x arid mesa
4x darksteel citadel
4x flagstones of trokair
3x mountain
1x plains
3x sacred foundry

Sb (very rough)
1 grafdiggers cage
2 relic of progenitus
3 magmatic channeler
1 wispmare
2 lightning helix
2 mana tithe
2 anger of the gods
1 parasalene
1 wrath of god

I know cockatrice isn’t a perfect gauntlet but this is the most consistent I’ve gotten land destruction to win in modern in years

Tricks and tips:
-On the draw, go ssg, crack the earth, and play land for the turn. (Captain Philips voice) Look at me, I’m going first now.
-If your opponent is playing a deck cleansing wildfire is useless against, point it at your own flagstones or citadel for a cantripping rampant growth in red (also fun on t1 with ssg)
-You almost never wanna play lil Chandra turn 3 unless you’re picking off a lil teferi
-Sandbag extra lands/spirit guides once you can reliably bust - these are great chaff for pyromancer and awakening
-don’t save a turn 2 boom to bust down the line ever, you win without busting just fine and will filter into your second if you need to
- board out ssg against slow decks, board out clunky walkers against fast ones
-Little Chandra is secretly the glue to the entire deck and it’s almost never the right call to board her out

You're somewhat close to the RW boom/bust deck that's been popping up in mtgo lists every week, although those mostly rely on nahiri/emrakul or sometimes karn tcg as a finisher. We chat about it a lot in the discord as I've been trying variants for the last few weeks on leagues. I've been having fun with it.

What do you mean stack in multiples? The card is worded weird in french, in a tense I don't think I've seen on a french card before.

I would assume not but they may have been loose with wording since most of the time, playing multiples of this card is unwise

It looks like it would, but it's also Legendary, so it's not likely to see multiples anyway.

Over a decade of ignoring mana burn has left me with zero idea of how this card will actually play. How often does extra mana empty these days? How often will people remember? Even before mana burn was removed it rarely came up.

Even funnier: Scalding Tarn, let your opponent fetch, then fetch Underground Sea -> Dark Ritual -> Opposition Agent. Casting Notion Thief in response to Brainstorm is one of my favourite plays, with Opposition Agent this'll come up all the time.
