What I like about this card is how it looks, at first glance, like a pretty small effect.
It's got an old frame.
And the mana cost is absurdly high and color dense.
In other words, it looks ancient. It's primitive. It's almost obsolete.

And it's really, really, powerful. Cards like this teach you the game. Like Necropotence. Necropotence is, from the narrowest perspective, a Howling Mine on lots and lots of crack. This is Healing Salve on lots and lots and LOTS of crack. Cards like that....they're just so simple, but in a resoundingly colossal way. Like a volcanic eruption. The opposite of cards like Time Reversal, which just does a lot of stuff in general, and the textbox would SOUND impressive even without the 'PHENOMENAL COSMIC POWER' artwork. This does almost nothing, and it's still daunting to read. I don't know if I said what I wanted to say. Being eloqu... (see all)

@ Stygimoloch: I'd like to see that guy run Sanguine Bond and possibly some way to get it into your hand from your graveyard like Argivian Find.

If you can produce mana very quickly, its a winning card in a red-white deck!

Highly too expensive.

I think the insanely high flashback cost might be intended to prevent combo potential with dredge.

The worst way to spend 12 mana I've ever seen.
