Underestimated card, very solid removal in ME4 limited. With limited instants/bounce and almost no enchantment removal.

Yeah..Homelands is by far the worst extension ever.

When I see a really bad card, I always say "That's another card that should have been printed in homelands".

Whenever I see a bad Homelands card (aka a Homelands card, find an exception) I like to yell "HOMELAAAAAAAAAAANDS!" same with Comic Sans font. I have no idea why. Homelands makes wonderful toilet paper.

Even Merchant Scroll is like the crappiest tutor ever. It was only good thanks to Ancestral Recall and Gush.

@ Kryptnyt:

That's like saying Burning Wish is bad because all it gets is Ad Nauseam or Tendrils of Agony. If they're playing it right, you still die if they resolve it.

Just because it was printed in a relatively bad format or was underpowered in its format doesn't mean it can't be absurdly powerful in the right eternal format. Look at Force of Will; Daze; Sensei's Divining Top; Counterbalance; Wild Nacatl; Punishing Fire; Stoneforge Mystic; Ponder; Preordain. The latter two were banned in Modern because they offered {UR} combo decks too much consistency for turn 3 kills.

With all the lockdown auras in white and blue over the years that DO NOT require an upkeep, this card is absolutely worthless. I would of given it less than 0.5 stars if possible....
