red self mill, repeatable burn, all together in this sets funky red enchantment

Reminds me of the "Planeswalker's" cycle of enchantment in Planeshift.

This one gives you lots of damage on its own, but only late game.

it's nice that it gives options, and could be used with werewolves to transform them during your turn while still doing something. Obviously best used with flashback, but i bet unearth would like this a lot too. Maybe use it an EDH deck, as that could help you find the right stuff (as the grave is just another hand waiting to be tapped) and since EDH typically has more expensive spells, this would be more effective. Instant speed general removal is great as well. Remember, reusable removal is never bad!

I played with this in the pre-release, and it seems very strong in limited. The ability to control the field and repeatedly send shots to the dome is very fun and powerful. I really liked playing with this card, and I found a home for it in my Mayael the Anima EDH deck. That deck naturally has lots of 5-8 cmc spells, so this serves up some serious value.

Something makes me want to put this in a deck with Fact or Fiction, FTV's Balance, and Linvala, Angel of Silence.

Does that make me a bad person? How about if I put in some New Phyrexia cards?

hmm...not mean enough. Ok. Liliana of the Veil and Jace the Mind Sculptor can come too.

Now THAT's just EVIL! >:D

(the connection is they're all 'painful choice' cards. it's more about being a dick than finding a Spikey win-from-nowhere. Jace is in there because he's the perfect card for ass hole.dec)

This wins games in Limited. If you untap with it, you can nuke that pesky flier with all the equipment on it, and then go to the dome when the blockers are gone.
I also see potential for EDH.

There goes the last "strictly better" argument.

combos well with Chandra's ultimate, unless you're not milling yourself to death.

Could work with the new RtR block.... a lot of higher(ish) costing cards, you'll get a pretty good average, and less wiffing

Wait, wait wait wait...This card exists?

And I haven't seen it after how long?
