I don't know if people realize this, but this is one of the best cards in the set. It re-snags your removal cards repeatedly. Even if it snags a ramp card for you, how awesome is that? Grabs your stagger shock one turn, and then growth spasm or etc. Its crazy good if the only cards in your graveyard also have rebound, aka consuming vapors and staggershock in a b/r deck. This will probably be underestimated for a long time until people realize it basically increases your removals by a quarter.. 2 of these can turn eight removals into 12 and so on.

@Ezenthar:
I beg to differ. You cannot change the order of cards in a graveyard.
404.2. Each graveyard is kept in a single face-up pile. A player can examine the cards in any graveyard
at any time but normally can’t change their order.

Only a 3.5, your kidding right? 2 burns back to your hand for 3? Thats incredible.

@ Vinifera and Ezenthar
Graveryard order only matters in legacy, any other format and you're allowed to change the order as you please. So, if you're playing legacy, just hope you have a large enough die :P

@Megrimage: It doesn't matter what order the cards in your graveyard are. The graveyard is a part of your field that anyone can pick up at any time and put back down in any order.
I imagine that when playing this you'd take out the instants from your graveyard, turn them so the back is facing you, shuffle them and pick one at random, then put the others back into your graveyard.

Why go for random? you only need to play 4 Lightning Bolt and 4 Naya Charm and no other instans to have both a engine and unrandomise this card.

Seems like a fantastic cascade off of Bituminous Blast, it won't hit the blast but it will hit something else and provide a ton of value for 3BR.

Red card advantage and random, both done right.

If shuffling your graveyard is an issue, you could use dice-rolls.
