I am pretty much obligated to love any card that uses the wording "that many", because it is usually kickass. No exception here.

Green Card draw thats arguably better than Hunter's Insight. + Possibly makes it draw 3 more cards than Hunter's Insight + Trample makes the card draw a lot more likely to connect
- Sorcery speed gives all choice to teh opponent ("Do I wan't to let him draw so many cards or do I block all damage?")
Yet it feels unfitting for an rare. It's just a basic utility card - but the rest of the set is so bad it's not even among the worst cards of Born of the Gods.

As an instant this could have easily when worthy of its rare status since it pretty much guaranteed the skillfull player to draw a handful of cards. As a sorcery however, it's arguable whether its better or worse than Hunter's Insight--an uncommon. It's just another fifty-cent rare in a set filled with fifty-cent rares.

Got this at prerelease, cast it 4 times, drew 23 cards. That's averaging nearly 6 cards for 5 mana. Blue mages - have some lessons and make sure to bring your notebooks.

Ran two of these during the prerelease along with Agent of the Fates. I won every game I got that combo out in.

Unless you chose white at the prerelease. Promo Silent Sentinel was... not great.

This really was a bomb at the prerelease and I often found it winning me games. Green has an abundance of 6/6 creatures like no other color does, and that means the other player doesn't choose whether to let you draw, they usually just choose whether to let you draw 5 cards or 9. Drawing 5 cards for 5 mana is insane, even without the extra damage included. 4.5/5

This is true story, at a Standard event i was hit for 14 from a savageborn hydra We spoke about the possibilities of this card impacting Standard. we both agreed the jury is out. in the next round he did it 3 times on different creatures . and when this fires off it's usaully GG shortly after. I played it tonight in a Naya Xenagos deck, how about ramping a turn 4 xenagos God and top decking an Elvish mystic and playing it , playing Hunter's Prowness and givining +x/+x with the God and haste. making me draw 8 cards and refill my hand and GG. I won my FNM tonight and Hunter's Prowness was the MVP. even in decks where it's a strong 2 for 1 risk, those decks are usually slamming Desecration Demon or Jace, Architect of thought and now probably Kiora, the crashing wave. my thoughts is this get's a 5 and this card is Green's Sphinx's Revelation I just nearly cleaned out an online vendor just in case a Pro bring a top 8 finish with any and makes my hunter's prowness shares skyrocket from the $0.33 investment i made

Sweet spell that works great with big 'ol green creatures and the heroic mechanic in general. Just be aware of your opponent's untapped mana / color of that mana, because getting the creature killed or tapped before they can attack would be a huge loss.

Expensive? Yes.
Worth it? Very. This can either refill your hand or FORCE your opponent to deal with a frightening creature.

If you pick one up, snap up any Horizon Chimera you see. Very strong combination in draft.

Use this in my GW Hero deck. Really fun with Fabled Hero and Bow of Nylea. Without anything else, it deals at least 11 damage if it's blocked, 12 if not, plus drawing that many cards. And thats without any other enchantments or Heroic triggers.
