The sorcery part sucks but I'm still happy to kill elf tokens. 3/5

There is such powerful, visceral and vivid imagery in this art and flavor text combined.

Nah, this is not a worse Electrickery. Scry 1 can be worth as much as an extra card if it's a useless land you scry away. And you don't cast Electrickery without the overload all that often.

@ Sweetgab

The worse part is the sorcery speed.

@ Electirkery comparisons

Electrickery isn't in Theros limited. 1/1 tokens sure are, though.

Formula for making new cards in Shards of Mirrodin block:

Old card + infect = new card.

Formula for making new cards in Theros block:

Old card + scry 1 = new card.

With such innovation I can only guess where MTG will be in another twenty years!

*Looks at the flavor text*

I don't think Purphoros cleans his toys very often. Well, that's Bachelor's life!

Cast this when you have Pyromancer's Gauntlet to wipe out most any white weenie army.

@Eternal_blue
You speak as though they are even feigning innovation, I mean some new cards are just old cards with different names. (Rise to the challenge)
