It looks like a huge 3 in. veiny schlong with legs. Just cover up the front-most leg and shoulder with your finger. Just saying.

Recurs three types of permanent from your grave, that's quick awesome, especially for Ghost Dad decks variant.

This creature is one of my favorite Orzhov cards of the set. Fairly balanced and with some great art. This art is far superior to the prerelease one.

This is a Catch 22... or double-sided blade? I don't know, just screw the sayings...
I mean, with Extort, you want to have your creatures staying dormant. But if you want this to work at its best, you have to take a risk.
An interesting pay-off, but it may become the under-performer of the Prerelease promos.

@Ferlord: It does bring back a card when it attacks which allows you get get some more extort triggers so it would still work with the mechanic well enough.

A huge 3in.... I guess size is relative. Anyway, this card may be slow but it's got an excellent attack trigger and extort literally glued onto it. I love the concept of a huge thrull but it seems like it could be a beast as well.
Take a look at the large art to see the weirdest part fo this card is the pudgy twin caretakers: http://media.wizards.com/images/magic/daily/arcana/1155_treasurythrull_1.jpg

In real life, this would be the result every time Giant Growth was cast.

That second ability is great. Almost a regrowth every turn. And then you get to extort the spell you get back? 4/5

Treasury Thrull? According to the art, it's more like the Family Jewels. Giggidy.

Pretty good for Commander and limited. But I guess for Standard, he is too slow.

Great card. Goes really well with extort mechanic because it brings back more creatures with extort. Also, bringing back key enchantments and artifacts from the grave is under appreciated in Magic. It can bring back Tablet of the Guilds, one of my favorite cards in the Return to Ravnica Block

Six mana is rather steep, but it feels fair for this big guy.
1) He's an extorter that synergies with his ability to bring back permanents.
2) His ability lets you nab back several permanents that can help you tremendously. In one casual match, I was able to nab back a One Thousand Lashes to enchant a big beater that was going to kill me. I lost the Thrull, but I was able to win due to Lashes' bleed effect. Even if you lose the Thrull, the recovery effect could be game changing.
3) He is a solid 4/4, which never hurts. People might complain he could have been bigger, but he could have been a 3/3 since he has two other good relevant abilites.
Like this guy a lot. Definitely going in my casual multiplayer deck.
Orzhov Treasure Schlong here feels a little overcosted. But not a bad drop in the late game, when your graveyard is likely full of goodies and you may need to reestablish an Extort creature on the board.

I can't vote this card well in good conscience. Man, am I glad that Wizards did an alternate art for this one. Good lord.

Oh Mindslaver, I love how you let my opponents tap to attack my creatures and let Treasury Thrull here walk by and grab you again. Oh and let Crypt Ghast help you activate you again.

It's slow, but if you have a Crypt Ghast it makes it easier to cast. This one of the few new Orzhov creatures that you'll want to attack with. I wish they made it a 5/5, but begger's can't be choosers I suppose.

At 6 mana, by the time this hits the table, swinging out with a 4/4 won't be safe, and it will quite likely be killed by a 5/5 or even a 6/6. That makes it a very expensive and more limited Regrowth.
If you have some way of giving it evasion, then it's another story.

Everyone's looking at this wrong.
It's not to get your permanents back on the field, no. It's not to thin your graveyard. What it's here for is recurring extort.
Let's say you have about three extort triggers out on the field. It's late game, and your opponent is at just five health or something. The biggest creature you have is treasury thrull, but they can stop it pretty easily.
Nothing new is happening. Both of you have an empty hand size, and you aren't drawing into anything you can cast.
You should attack with your treasury thrull anyways.
Return some random card from your graveyard that died a long time ago, and recast it just for the extort.
This thing was built for Recurring Extort.
I just wish that it could target instants and sorceries also. Then again, that'd be close to a Regrowth.

Should have been called "Sun Titan 2 - Orzhov Bugaloo"
Look at all the THINGS you can do with this sucker and that includes our old Dead Weight Shenanigans...
Judge's Familiar for a counterspell
Scroll of Avacyn for card draw (& possible lifegain)
Scroll of Griselbrand for instant-speed discard(& possible life loss)
Glaring Spotlight for unblockable-ity
Traveler's Amulet for land drops
Soul Tithe & Stab Wound for Taxing/removal
Blazing Torch for a colorless Shock
Add this to the fact that you can use Heartless Summoning to get this guy out fast, it gets absurd, considering that for EACH of the above you can use for recurring extort triggers.

You can make it bigger with blood rush... Wonder if it was a coincidence that this card was printed in the same set as blood rush and could be used to retrieve those cards after being used. This is why you'd never want to be in debt to the Orzhov.

This is somewhat better with Theros, given all the hybrid creature/enchantments out there, especially the Gods and their artifact weapons.
