Yo, dawg, I heard you liked card advantage, so I put Mentor of the Meek in your graveyard next to Mulldrifter, so when Reveillark leaves play, you can draw, while you draw.

I just realized this can get Karmic Guide back from the 'yard. And your opponent can't do ANYTHING about it. Bounce, exile and conventional removal all cause this to trigger. I really need to get one. Or two....

A truly formidable card, one that requires other cards to support its ability, but with them, is devastatingly effective. With bounce and sac outlets, it is a card-drawing machine with Mulldrifter. It can be almost too abusive of mechanics to fairly play against; once the combo engine is in place, it's hard not to quit out of frustration.
@Oblivax
You don't understand the stack. The evoke cost isn't to sacrifice the creature. The evoke cost is exactly what is written on the card next to evoke. In this case it is 5W. You pay the evoke cost to put the creature into play. Sacrificing the same creature you are playing to pay the cost of playing that creature would never work, because the creature can't enter the battlefield (in this manner) unless you pay the cost. The cost would be sacrificing the creature. But it's still on the stack. Does that make sense?
So, no, sacrificing the creature is definitely not part of the cost. It is a trigger event set up by you payin... (see all)

And your opponent can't do ANYTHING about it unless of course he plays blue.
Fixed for you.

Love love love this card in my EDH. I found myself specifically choosing creatures with power two or less over larger creatures because oh him. Of note; Phantom Nishoba.

My playgroup loves to use Life's Finale on me; my fault for showing it to them really.
I run Doran, so nothing of mine really gets over 2 power. That being said, they usually tend to go for removal systems like Dark Impostor or Scavenging Ooze
Of course, I chuckle every time; they never see this card coming.
