Ha, that's awesome Velrun :)

Oh. Oh my! The possibilities! This might actually be the first tutor I'm interested in, ever. Imagine the glee of searching up the reanimation spell and the fatty! :)

That's a fair point you make there.

Ha! I completely glossed over the fact that you already had it say non-Spirit! Ok, in that case I have to reverse the comment: for flavor reasons I love that possession says "non-Spirit", but it's probably good to test if the mechanic doesn't play better if you remove the non-Spirit clause...

Actually, I prefer Nekrataal, precisely because it isn't such a bland, catch-all answer. I really dislike Chupacabra for its generic-ness.

Ok, I see what you're aiming for. It looks interesting to me, but be aware that this is a downside mechanic and WoTC themselves have admitted that those kinds of mechanic aren't well liked. Examples of the past include cumulative upkeep and echo, and those tend to score better with tournament...

I run it, and like Rise from the Tides, it's a great incentive to go Ux spells. It also has nice crossover with the artifact theme in my cube, though you still have to be base spells to make it work, so it's more of an incentive to also play some artifact matters cards in your Ux spells deck...

My favorite deck's Reno Warlock, though I'm not much of a wild player.

Yeah, I noticed. One of the first few comments literally reads: Like... what.

That looks awesome.

Sweet value! Too bad I don't run GU in my cube :)

That dinosaur is awesome and going straight into my cube. Though I believe I already said that. I just really like this card! :)

Tinker into Battlesphere is backbreaking on turn 3. It made me cut Battlesphere from my cube, when really Tinker was the problem. I've since realized the myr ball is actually a fun card to play with, and a fair card to play against, if it isn't cheated out on turn 3. At least that is my...

Eidolon of Blossoms. Can't resist the value train!

Why does Paliano Vanguard need a giant list? Most of the time you're going to need to write down two creature types. I think it's a fine card honestly. Edit: It also feels like a shame to cut the draft matters theme from blue completely. Is Arcane Savant too much in this list? I also feel like...

Huh... You're right. Maybe "If you cast ~ from your hand, draw a card" then. But by now where getting into pretty Arcane formulas, just to entice people to maybe maindeck a card with a "you can play this from your sideboard" mechanic. I'm starting to get convinced the only correct way to do this...

So, would something like... Reflexive Dismissal {3}{u}{u} Instant Internalized (You may cast ~ from your sideboard if you exile a blue card from your hand in addition to paying its casting cost.) Counter target spell. Draw a card. ... be worth it? Obviously the mana cost can be discussed, but...

Fair enough! The fun is in assembling the right lands. If you have lots of mana fixing, that should be a relatively mundane task though, and the reward for basically drafting the right mana fixing and constructing a good mana base is huge. I think this mechanic (casting cards from the sideboard)...

Looks like a wicked commander to me, not so good in cube though, I think. There's only so many expensive spells you can put in your cube to support this card, and I fear it's just never going to come together.

Doesn't look like purely a combo card to me! It looks like a grinch value engine! Get back a removal spell, get back a card draw spell, copy Cruel Ultimatum, still have that removal and card draw spell in your hand. Unless you drew so many good cards that you have to discard the card draw spell...
