You know a card is bad when it could have costed 4 less and still would've seen zero play. I honestly think this is in the top 15 worst cards ever.

It's comparable than Wood Elemental, IMO;.

The idea is that you use this as a way of infinitely splicing into arcane with your other spells. In a splice deck, because you're casting multiple spells through a single card, you'll often have plenty of cards in hand to ensure the triggering of Death of a Thousand Stings's second ability so you can re-use it turn after turn. The only problem is that, at 5 mana, Death of a Thousand Stings costs so much that you won't reliably be able to afford splicing other spells onto it. Long-Forgotten Gohei somwhat fixes that problem, and it really is great if you get to cast this for {1}{B} or {B} and splice a ton of Glacial Rays onto it, but without multiple Goheis on the battlefield this just isn't very good.

At a glance, {2}{B} seems like a good cost for this. But then again, if this was costed at {2}{B}, 4 Goheis on the battlefield would allow you to cast this and splice two Glacial Rays onto it for a total cost of {B}{R}{R}, which, although rare, w... (see all)
