This is a great limited card to tip scales.

Is it just me or does that look like Naked Jehuty from Zone of the Enders: 2nd Runner?

Also, I'm glad it's new art still has the same feel.

Mystic Snake works quite well with this.

Great in limited! This card lets you recycle and gets rid of a threat, all for just two mana.

Definitely in the top three in terms of my favorite cards to play at the prerelease

had this played numerous times during the pre-release, but one of my opponents kept trying to use it without a target that he didn't control. He couldn't believe that the spell would fizzle without two valid targets.

He was using it to save his creature.

@Speednat

My understanding is that the spell cannot be cast if valid targets cannot be declared. The spell would not fizzle - it would be an illegal play, and the card would simply go back into his hand.

On the other hand, assuming it was legally cast with TWO legal targets...

... upon resolution, only one target needs to be valid for the effect to resolve (for that target) - i.e. the one creature that is still on the battlefield will still bounce.

Is the whole spell countered if you can't target one of your creatures, or is the opponent's creature still peeled

Q: What makes this art any more appropriate for Innistrad?
A: The wizard in the background.

With enough mana this card is just a nightmare for the opponent. Peel your snapcaster, remove your opponent's creature, cast snapcaster, recast peel, remove another of your opponent's creatures, attack etc. With 6 mana you can remove two of your opponent's creatures each turn. With Talrand up that's a whole lot of drakes spawning.

The two different arts for this card are eerily similar

Bounce a Void Stalker afterCondemning a creature to your opponent's library, bounce a Mist Raven to bounce the enemy creature you just bounced on your next turn when they replay it, nab back your Clone to grab yourself a copy of a better creature, or even use it to grab back a creature you Switcheroo'd to your opponent whilst doing any of the above. And that's completely discounting all the times you'd normally bounce your own creature. Some of the most fun I've had bouncing creatures since Echoing Truth or Into the Roil. Above all, the flavor is just really fun, and, unlike Unsummon, it can gain you a bit of card advantage by wasting removal /and/ forcing them to waste a turn resummoning something.
