I'd love to see a reprint as well, just don't see it happening with Snappy Mage in rotation. Far too powerful for standard. 3 Glimpse and 3 Snappys is 60 cards worth of mill alone. Compound that with other mill and your opponent drawing cards and you may well only need two of each for a mill win. I doubt Wotc wants that kind of mill power in standard. They never have before... But here's to hoping they prove me wrong, cuz I'd love to crack a few of these in Maze... or Modern Masters maybe? Doubt that too tho...

the name kinda sounds like a name of some legendary creature.
its fun, but its just twice tome scour and its worth about 50 times more. just costs too much.

I find it quite ironic how this is the tenth highest community rated dimir card... I think it's pretty self explanatory.

i have sat around with 2 of these in my binder for the longest time and it just ***es me off that noone has tried to trade for it.
more people in my area need to play UB like me :(
that aside, this card is amazing and i have loved it ever since i first saw it.

I pray this get's reprinted in Journey into Nyx. I think it would finally make mill viable, rather than just printing 5 drops who have a focus on mill but aren't fast enough to actually make it worth while. And it would make plenty of sense with Ashiok around in the story. Hell it would go great with Breaking in standard right now, there was once a standard that had both Shock and Bolt, so why can't mill have Glimpse and Breaking?

This is a rare because a card that does absolutely nothing except mill is terrible in draft. Look at all the color shifting cards and other incredibly specialized cards. Almost all of them are rares to stop them from being too common in drafts. This also helps wizards keep "good" and "rare" from being synonymous. That said, since this is specialized and good, it definitely needs to be reprinted.
I would also like to note that it takes 7 bolts to kill, while 5 of these will generally do the trick.

He saw the truth and screamed it for all to hear...
"They're milling her! And then they're going to mill me! OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!"
