Is it just me or is Unsummon becoming more and more useful with each new set? (not that it hasn't always been useful). I mean levellers (and things like Ajani's Pridemate), totem armour, massive Eldrazi creatures and other creatures that have probably been 'cheated' in, like Demon of Death's Gate; indestructible or otherwise hard-to-kill creatures, reusing EtB effects, saving your own creatures from removal... I think that's about it??
Maybe I am just starting to appreciate it more?
Everytime I bounce, I feel I touch the skyyyy!

@OMFGrhombus that's a Vedalken hand. It has two thumbs on oppsite sides and two fingers in the middle. they're supposed to look like that.

You can easily play your 9 CMC creature again... but I'll just keep unsummoning it!

So many reasons to love this card. I can think of 10 good uses:
1. Save your creature from removal
2. Force an opponent to recast an expensive creature, esp. if not hardcasted
3. Aura removal, esp. totem armour
4. Pseudo Fog, esp. against exalted
5. token removal
6. Counter removal
7. Reusing an EtB ability
8. Countering a spell by unsummoning, then countering when recast
9. Avoiding walls, indestructible, etc.
10. Returning stolen creatures to their owners hand
All of this for U! This is an amazing card, worthy of all blue decks.

Wait, they're supposed to look like that? Dude, imagine how awesome his hand-people would look. I bet if you look at the back of his hand he a has a face drawn on it :O

Who is Simun the Quiet? For a silent guy, he's on a lot of flavor texts.

A staple in any blue deck that cant afford Jaces. Use it to bounce your own creatures when they get doom bladed or terminated. Drew an escence scatter and they have a big creature out? No problem, just unsummon the beast and watch them cry as u counter it. Great way to spend one blue mana
