Casual blue ping decks will love this card! Reminds me of Flame Fusillade and sigil of sleep in one card.

I think she was a Mirran strike witch before the Phyrexians took over.

Interesting. Though, the question is: if you are in a situation in which you have several creatures that can attack your opponent without getting blocked, why ain't your opponent dead? It looks a bit like a "win more" card to me, that makes then most sense when you are about to win anyway.
The only thing I see is by using it with pingers or arc-slogger or something like that.

This could be a very, very annoying card to play on someone. Part of me really hopes to pull this and Dissipation Field together at the prerelease.

@majinara Have you ever played this game called Magic? Cause hitting with a pair of 2/2's that cant be blocked wont get you far if your opponent is hitting you with a pair of 3/3's that you can no longer block.
This is a way to get them off the field, which means there is little danger in attacking with everything you have.

Quick question - How does this interact with Mistblade Shinobi? Will my old-school friend of hyper-annoyance be able to return two cards to their hand, or is it still just the one?

Cheap Sleep?

majinara is right, this card might look good on paper, but requires too much work and luck to gain your mana worth of advantage.

Unblockables?
Pingers?
Intimidate/Fear?
Flying?

... Yes please.

Bounce should be white... especially creature-based bounce.

So, we use White to give us a large force of small creatures and buff them by 1-2 points. Use Venser to make them all unblockable, and cast this to disable them while damaging them. Insert the proper control or protection, depending on what's necessary or useful, and you have yourself a deck.

Unless your opponent is playing a Human deck, Spare from Evil. is quite possibly the single best card to use with this. Sleep would be a decent alternative, though you would be looking at a 7 mana drop instead of 5.

This will replace Sigil of Sleep.

Of all the people who annoy me on this site, Cheza takes the cake. Worse than MasterOfEtherium. He's just so stupid.

As for this card, limited to Limited and Casual, but will certainly enable some fun/annoying strategies with unblockables and discards.

@Cheza - How would the stand-up (Knights, Paladins, etc.) creatures of white be able to turn your opponent's creatures into the stuff from whence they came?

An okay SB card for any U/x Aggro deck; bring it in against other Aggro decks to slow them down in the damage race. In such matches, that one turn that they can't attack is often crucial. Not worth main-decking though (not unless your meta is VERY heavily creature-based Aggro).

2.5/5

@Cheza.
I think your awesome btw. Some interesting ideas. That could make for a great game, though I am sorry to say it, I dont think its MTG.
Even if they tried shifting it now, theres so many old blue bounces it would never stick. Bounce would be white and blue, and its not really needed.

What is that, anyways? Some sort of seaweed bikini?
