This + Azorius Charm will make an annoying Standard.

Glad they kept the original art. Fusan coming back (from the M12 card Time Reversal) is a nice touch too.

Nowhere near as irritating as Azorius Charm.
Thank God.

This card is the reason why blue fliers will be a powerhouse in draft

@Bufzar They should have been even more displeased at not being able to read Arcanist which can only copy instants.

People are sort of silly. In the comments of every version of this card there are people saying: "play this with mill, then it's good removal". The problem with that idea is that then you don't get to time-walk people left and right with this.
Trust me when I say that fighting this effect is absurdly difficult when it comes in multiples. Imagine a deck with something like the following:
4x Remand
4x Memory Lapse
4x Time Ebb
4x Temporal Spring
along with some efficient green beaters. Starting (consistently) on turn 2 you start getting stuff thrown back on top of your library. You very quickly begin missing land-drops because you can't draw new cards. All the while you're getting beat to death and all your stuff is getting countered or removed.
This effect is more than just tempo - your opponent skips their next draw and you have knowledge of their future lines of play. Which is a pretty big deal when ... (see all)

@NiKMi9 I don't think so- as "target creature", to the best of my knowledge, really means "target creature permanent" and permanents are only found on the battlefield. everything else is just a spell. but you should probably ask a real judge

Also, this is the only good art this artist has done, practically.
