Flash is what takes this card from being situationally useful, to being downright awesome. The fact that this card has an identical cost to Dissolve should clue most people in to it's intended benefit... When you hit your third land, you wait till their turn, counter their big threat if they play one, and of not, drop the dictate and benefit from it first, and with full mana to boot.

True, feeding your opponents cards is a serious concern, but with the right deck, specifically one splashing black for Notion Thief, or Fate Unraveler, this drawback can be turned into a strength.

Oh, and by the way, for you blue-black players out there... Warped Physique just became Dimir's standard god-killer. (And everything-else-killer too)

Okay, I'm running two of these in a deck and they are glorious.

Pretty much how it goes in order for me is,
Ramp Mana with Market Festival for days.
Pop a Prophet of Kruphix and a Floodtide Serpent.
Play Dictate of Kruphixat the end of opponents turn because flash.
Then play a Whitewater Naiads and make Floodtide Serpent unblockable and attack causing Dictate of Kruphixto return to your hand thus not giving your opponent the extra card draw.
You can play Dictate of Kruphix again but you would need to make sure that Whitewater Naiads doesn't get destroyed and have plenty of enchantment creatures to activate it's constellation or else the Floodtide Serpent strategy just sort of falls apart.

That's one of the ways that I got around the extra card pull for the opponent but that's... (see all)
