Every card in Time Spiral was a throwback to at least one previously printed card.

This card references Nether Shadow.

Okay, so let me get this straight: first they reprint Nether Shadow, but give it an evasion ability, then make its return ability even more accessible? Count me in.

hm. if you have a pawn of ulamog and you sac this card to ashnod's altar and get 2 mana, pawn of ulamog puts a eldrazi spawn into play, sac the spawn for one mana, then use some random filter to turn one generic mana into 1 {B} use it to bring back nether traitor, then sac it to the altar again...would it work? it should, since the rules on the traitor doesn't specify non-token creature. so...INFINITE MANA IN MONO BLACK!!!

This card is amazing. It's the best black weenie you could put in your deck. It serves the purpose of being fast, refusing to stay dead (an all important trait for many black combos), and being unblockable. I have 3 in my deck and I sincerely wish I had four.

If one Traitor goes to the grave, I'm assuming you can return a second to the battlefield. Making a loop with two of them seems to be a good way to keep Contamination in play, or anything else that requires you to sacrifice something every turn, or benefits from sacrifice. Mortician Beetle comes to mind.

not just fast paced beat down, it's awesome with Culling the Weak and Dread Return in black sacrifice decks.

This should have had a tombstone in the corner for the nostalgia.
