Reminds me of Recoup, on the other hand it's a good bit older, therefore possibly even the card that helped inspiring the flashback mechanic.

It even became more powerful when the stack was invented. With the stack, you can use the ability in response to anything. Also, the new wording made buyback interact with it well; you can buy back spells from the yard!

good for EDH, sometimes you'll need two copies of a card but you're only allowed to play one.

... Mobius strip. For all of you not nerdily versed in topology, Google is your friend.

Why, it looks like that strip has only one face and one edge. My non-orientable surface senses are tingling.

This has certain similarities to Elkin Bottle. Take a wild guess why.

I'm thinking of using this for EDH, so I was wondering if in the current rules you are able to reorder your graveyard as you want, at any point. It seems to me that the order of your graveyard really isn't an issue in Magic anymore, except of course when you play one of these very fairly raree cards that refer to the order of your graveyard.
Thought?

@Quincy_Robinson , see the rule 404.2 in the Comprehensive rules:
"404.2. Each graveyard is kept in a single face-up pile. A player can examine the cards in any graveyard at any time but normally can’t change their order. Additional rules applying to sanctioned tournaments may allow a player to change the order of cards in his or her graveyard."
From the Tournament rules:
"3.13 Graveyard Order
In formats involving only cards from Urza’s SagaTM and later, players may change the order of their graveyard at any time. A player may not change the order of an opponent’s graveyard."
To put it shortly, in EDH the rules do not allow you to change the order of your graveyard.

Been looking for a use for this for a long time. Then along came Riku. This card found a home in my newest EDH deck, and it is so useful!
