pretty good card, i like the flashback ability. I still gotta ask, why did they make this card if they already had Elephant Ambush?

Does anybody else think the Tombstone should become a symbol in the textbox that is basically shorthand for JFM2796's multiflashback?

But in response to that theory, no, I don't think we WILL see multiflashback after all. It would seem...not original enough, since they already did multikicker, and remember the one thing they always lament about kicker: it makes half of all the other mechanics just look like kicker knock-offs. No, multikicker was also given an interesting level of flavor in Zendikar block- it was about aftershocks. They tried to distinguish it.

But, we know they do evolve mechanics over blocks- so we will probably see some very wierd flashback costs. Cabal Therapy is just one example. I think we might see even creepier stuff though- remember when they were talking about -1/-1 counters as a possible cost in Shadowmoor? How about -1/-1 counter flashback costs?

SPOILERS!

The cards leaked from Innistrad show the Flashback mechanic is returning, so I will take this time to call MultiFlasback in Dark Ascension, just as there was Multikicker in Worldwake. It would look something like this.
