Each mode costs 1 more than their "usual" cost.
Far costs 1 more than Unsummon.
Away costs 1 more than Diabolic Edict.
But the option to be able to do either one is worth that extra mana. Add-in the fact that you can do both for only 5? Now THAT'S versatility, in fact, a "charm-level" versatility....just not as cheap.
5/5

I think this is Far and Away the best of the uncommon split cards.

Fuse resolves as left side then right side. Bounce the creature they would most prefer to sac.

Expect to see a lot of this in control, both options are pretty nasty and getting hit by both can completely wreck an creature-based deck for a couple turns. I'm not looking forward to be on the receiving end of this....

I really like this card. I think you never want to cast Far on its own, but it will actually be relevant a surprising amount of the time. The plays where you bounce their weenie and get them to sac their curve topper will be what you remember though.

@whisperingsage, unfortunately even if you could resolve Away before Far you could not deal with a Thragtusk. You need to declare targets for both sides when you cast it. So you would force them to sac a creature (Thrag in this case), then you would have had to have selected Thrag as a target (or one of your creatures) to be able to legally cast fuse. You cannot adjust targets.
