Opps, I meant to say this works well in conjunction with Bone Dancer

It's a bit of a stretch, but at least this can be a Scepter of Fugue with legs.
Interesting not so mindless zombie.

Note also the Wizard class type :P But this guy is a pain to play around...he can eat up your hand and set you up for a nasty board sweeper as you try to avoid him...or, in my case, he was a must-counter that dropped just a turn earlier than was easy to handle :P

My friend plays this card and it is quite annoying when you have no cards left and no removal.

Somehow it makes me think it should be a spellshaper, although it would be much worse then. It's pretty good, in my opinion. 4/5

When using Training Grounds, you can reveal 1-2 cards in their hand and discard one for just one black mana! Pay one more for 3. Great for the early part of the game and lets you know what your oppnent has up his sleeve.

Did you know this combos with Training Grounds??! Like every singe other effect that costs more than one colorless mana?
Lastly did you know that you can turn good cards into great cards and bad cards into ok cards with Training Grounds when they have abilities that cost more than 2 colorless mana?
I really really wish people wouldn't honestly say stuff like that, it makes me lost hope in the human race
This card is alright, it's pretty expensive, and when you have to mana to use on it, he (or she) may not have a hand anymore to use it on
Still its a 1/1 for 2, which doesn't make it horrible, its got some good places for sure 2.5/5
um... why is Scepter of Fugue rated higher? Aside from creatures usually being easier to remove this card is strictly better. It only costs 1 black rather than 2 and if you have the mana it can view more than one card.

brain eater zombie!!! I think this one is very underrated. 1B our opponent discards a card. if you have extra mana you can consider him a coercion on a stick, and he's a zombie to boot? I will happily 'waste' my mana to start searching my opponents hand on turns 2 3 and 4 and making them discard all their lands, while building up the zombie apocolypse on my side.

Play alongside bounce spells. When your opponent is in topdeck mode with an empty hand (not so hard with 4x Cabal Interrogator and maybe 4x Duress), that Boomerang is suddenly an instant speed Vindicate.

@bijart: The Scepter is an artifact, so doesn't have to deal with summoning sickness. Plus, colored artifacts look awesome.
01. As mentioned below, if you have the mana, you can view more than 1 card. 02. With Interrogator YOU get to decide what they discard, not so with Scepter.

Also did you know that Sprout Swarm combos with Doubling Season?
