I'm desperately hoping we get a Curse commander either here or in Crimson Vow. 5-color would be preferable but I will settle for Grixis.
I know I shouldn't- it was an incredibly obvious call in an incredibly obvious color combination- but I kinda feel like a prophet right now.

They updated The List for Innistrad. Some of the cards people thought would be reprinted are instead going to The List. Snapcaster Mage, Master of the Wild Hunt, Teferi, Hero of Dominaria...

Its also including some of the play test cards from Mystery Booster boxes

If you buy Set boosters there's a list of cards that they reprinted that will sometimes replace a card. They aren't standard legal, but it's supposed to be fun I guess?

There would be riots in the streets if Delver of Secrets and Snapcaster Mage were reprinted together. Especially since this set has Better Opt, Better Shock, and Better Unsummon in it already.

ah yeah you're right this will never see play in modern, noted Format Where Everyone Pays The Full Mana Cost For Everything, What Do You Mean "Reanimator"

it's a card that can adds arbitrary amounts of mana. i can't think of a single instance of that sort of card that hasn't been broken.

This is a pretty snarky post to be honest. I was thinking standard only because that’s what I like to play. Even in modern I’m not sure why you play this over your standard reanimator targets like Archon of Cruelty. Only generates colorless mana and is only paying for things like flashback. Why am I reanimating this?

Underworld breach + a fireball effect + this seems p okay. Too fragile of a combo probably in practice but it's cute.

e: that actually doesn't work i don't think.

It's 2006. I am taking 276 yeti furs from the goodies hoard.

Trying to figure out if this can do anything stupid in Standard. The only free artifact sac outlet I can think of is Rust Monster, and there aren't many colorless cards with abusable ETBs. Spare Supplies turns this into "Pay 2 life: Draw a card" I guess? Not really a lot of antics I can come up with

edit: Oh wait I thought it let you straight up cast a spell from your graveyard with the mana but I think I misunderstood, it's only stuff like flashback and disturb and Ebondeath huh?

Oh, he's gonna play very well in a modern reanimator shell along with Persist and Stitcher's Supplier. Breach or PiF into Banefire from the yard sounds pretty deece to me, with the normal reanimator targets as backup

NO, I WON'T STOP SHARING IT

more like BOLLOCKnese

Wondering if that bottom card is gonna be way better than you think in limited, considering how good Guiding Voice was. On the other hand the mana cost is obviously 1 more and a lot more restrictive, on the other hand you get 2 bites at the cherry and it's possible if you draw this with 5 mana you just win the game.

Yea, this might be a good approximation of travel preparations, where if you curve out with this it’s going to put you very far ahead

This could work very well with the Ghoulcaller's Harvest/Diregraf Rebirth combo. I think you need better self-mill to make that deck work though, and ideally a card like Gnaw to the Bone that can gain you life from the graveyard.

If we aren't talking color restrictions I think The Elderspell is a better or equal card in that regard.

How frequently do they reprint planeswalkers into new sets rather than giving them a new version? I know ugin the spirit dragon is a reprint, how often does that sort of thing happen?
