One of the best ways to change the color of something. Kind of an oxymoron, that "best way to change a color"

This is a significant improvement on this type of card. If I were ever to want to make a deck based around this type of effect, I'd want it to be available at all times, not just once. Unfortunately, there aren't that many interesting cards that interact with it for me to get around to building such a deck.

When this is in your graveyard you can say that every land you draw is a Sleight of Mind vor 1U. This is nuts.

Either faeries are really small or the insects of Lorwyn and Shadowmoor are huge! I'm pretty sure it's the latter of the two. Just look at Hobgoblin Dragoon.

This is probably the best of the "change color" cards.

Yay! It's...Mind Bend. Only with Retrace, so it gets its mana cost pumped up! YAY!! /endsarcasm

Hmmm allow terror to destroy a black or artifact creature
There's cheaper things but hmm interesting

Change the protection of creatures such as say Akroma...

In a Commander deck with Animar as general, this can be pretty close to an "I win" card.

Just use this on any of the lieges then instead of them buffing up your multi-colors they buff up your mono colors instead
for maximum annoyance i suggest using this on balefire liege or deathbringer liege

I think that the art on this card is trying to evoke the idea that hornets provide out of colour burn for green.

Given the value it could provide in a metagame full of Deathmarks, Celestial Purges, Hydroblasts, and Guttural Responses, I'm surprised that this card has yet to show up in any competitive Eternal Lists.

Of course, Alter Reality already exists and doesn't see much play (in winning decks) anymore...

@Saxophonist: Don't forget that Mind Bend can also affect cards such as Karma.

Can be used for shenanigans with Animar, Soul of Elements. Sure, I'd like protection from just about any color...

I'll tell you what rocks with this? Teysa, Orzhov Scion. Change "black" to "white" or vice versa, and you get infinite, costless, nearly unstoppable removal.

Pretty great tech against Omnath, Locus of Mana EDH decks.
Locus of BLUE mana!!

@ ArtifactFreak
You can use it to kill a Black creature, but Not an artifact. Artifact is not a color so you can't change that.
