I wouldn't have minded if this was just a little more expensive, but at instant speed. *sigh*

This card is so sweet in Limited. If your opponent has any kind of a curve, this guy will just wreck it. Not to mention if they are crazy enough to use Equipment or Auras... ouch. Last night, my friend swung a Zombie token into Elite Inquisitor, just to cast a big Festerhide Boar. Sadly, next turn, the pig departed. Silently. :)

What I like about magic most is that cards themselves will not win you game (except few broken cards), it's YOU who need to win the game. You can build perfect machine out of imperfect parts.
This proved to be really great piece of my Burning Vengeance deck. When I was fighting my friend's vampire deck, which is really fast and deadly, with Runic Repetition I was able to control the board with this for really long time... and it was awesome :)
Still, I would love to see it as an instant, or a pernament bouncing. Let's hope for Dark Ascension...

Another one of those "so close" cards, in my opinion anyways. Sure, it's a double Unsummon, which is a decent card to begin with. But being a sorcery is a huge setback for this card, and flashback for {4}{U} doesn't help its case. Even with the heavy flashback cost, I'd consider it if it were {1}{U} but instant.
It could have some use in some more aggressive decks for removing blockers twice, but control really needs to bounce those creatures during combat.

One thing I'm liking so far in Innistrad is that even the mediocre cards have very cool flavour.

I prefer this to Unsummon.

This card can't have a rating low enough of the scale for my opinion. It's terrible, six mana to double unsummon, but only on your turn? This turn isn't even close to the caliber of how good unsummon or vapor snag are. I'd even run anything else that is an instant and returns creatures over this card. It's flashback cost is too high to make it a good card. If it's flashback was two or three it be a way better card since it's decent efficiency to return two creatures for even four mana, but the fact that it's still only able to be used on your turn makes it handicapped.
TL;DR, It's flashback cost is too high, it's extremely handicapped because it's not an instant, not mana efficient enough unless you're running it with one or two Catalyst Stones.

the card just says "return target creature to its owner's hand" wouldn't that mean you can bring creture cards back from your graveyard to your hand?

Removed 5 star rating from vapor snag and gave it to this. Even though it's a sorcery, it whoops unsummon and snags ass anyday!
