The image of Tree of Redemption slipping and falling into an open grave will now stay with you forever.
Also, cast this on Tragic Poet for maximum tragedy.

The flavor of this is just silly, but I'm not complaining about killing Blightsteel Colossus for one mana. I'm glad that this set has a good common.

I think the idea is that if you fall into an empty grave, you'll only get a little roughed up, but if something died recently and there's a zombie in the grave...well, unless you're an Autochthon Wurm, you won't be climbing back out.

No no, the flavor is not silly, nor does it have anything to do with zombies.
Not morbid: Oh no, I fell into a six foot hole. That hurt a little
Morbid: OH NO, I FELL INTO HELL. I'M DEAD NOW.

@Mr.BarrelRoll: I think the idea here is that if no creatures died this turn there would be no open graves and the creature would just slip and fall on the floor, but if a creature died, it's grave wouldn't be covered yet and the tragic slipped creature would share the grave

I like how this card works with Geth's Verdict. Opponent's got two creatures. Play Verdict ,opponent sacrifices his weaker creature, leaving you with the opportunity to give his better one the Slip.
