I think this card would've been awesome if it had Flash.

But alas, it's only a common.

Leyline of Anticipation is looking better and better for the URG deck.

Ooh...
Yes, the Leyline is looking pretty attractive with this guy. Surprise bounce and a 4/4 blocker.

With Riku on board it turns into a pseudo-Capsize. 5/5 in Mirror Mastery
1) 1UU to evoke
2) Target your opponent's non-land permanent
3) Pay UG with Riku's copy ability
4) Put a 4/4 token onto the battlefield returning your evoked original with sac on the stack back to your hand
5) ????
6) Profit (of 1GUUU for a non-land Capsize and a 4/4 blocker)

This guy, along with all evoke cards, are great with momentary blink.

loads of fun in the URG Commander deck. It's a strong card under any of the three commanders: Riku, Animar, or Intet.

The first time i saw someone use a blink to get around the evoke sacrifice, I thought it seemed a little fishy, but i let it pass. If you review the rules, specifically 702.72a, it's very clear that the sacrifice is PART of the casting cost, not a triggered effect. Failure to sacrifice the creature makes the evoke fizzle and the creature goes to the graveyard. It doesn't matter if the creature leaves the battlefield, it still must be sacrificed to fulfill the evoke cost. Any judge that misses this obviously hasn't read the rules closely enough.

That is a BIG elemental for 4/4 stats.
