Mmm... Wait till T7 (To make sure there are plenty of lands), tap out all your lands so that your mana is stored in your mana pool. Cast Armageddon, and then cast Bitter Ordeal, and watch as you lose all your friends forever...

Please make gravestorm a keyword mechanic for a set soon. I really like the idea of it, and I really want to see more cards with it.

I tried thinking about which color combinations with 'Black' want to do this the most- I decided

Black-Green/Black-Green-X didn't quite feel right.

Black-White/Black-White-X is getting closer

Black-Red/Black-Red-X doesn't need this at all, though it could fuel it the best, it's going to kill you with damage to the head, not clever library manipulation tricks.

Black-Blue/-X ah. there's the sweetness! Although milling (if I'm correct) doesn't interact with this in a combo-y way, it DOES have a basic 'works generally well together' theme as you are continuously depriving your opponent of cards from various places- the graveyard, with Extirpate, their hand, with Mind Twist, their library with Glimpse the Unthinkable and this. just go on an Assassin's Spree, finding each card you hate the most and pricking them away forever in a Sadistic Sacrament!

If you wanted to go, for, say Commander- then probably 3 colors is better ... (see all)

For the love of god, don't use this in an infinite combo, especially one that doesn't require just one other card to win in it.

Since you have to copy the "search and shuffle" aspect of this card, what's stopping your opponent from not saying, "Whatever, I know you're going to win. I'll scoop".

If I lost on turn 1 or 2 to this, I'd say, "Ok, search my deck for a card. Exile it. I'm going to shuffle my library"
"Ok, search my deck for a card. Exile it. I'm going to shuffle my library"
"Ok, search my deck..."


Just because you should scoop, doesn't mean you have to.

is it just me, or do the people in the art seem familiar? the one on the right looks like a more scantly clad chandra, but I can't place the others.

Gravestorm...It sounds promising if ever they make that as a block mechanic (Is the question IF or WHEN?).
-
I just hope that when/if they do, they don't screw it up like some other abusable mechanics, like in the Urza's block for example...

Ooo I want to break this with Gravecrawler and Heartless Summoning...another Zombie on the board for the recursion and maybe Liliana of the Dark Realms for the mana? That's a lot of pieces, but dang. "I'll remove this, and this, and this, and this..."

Does this work with Glimpse the Unthinkable, or is it just from the battlefield?
