Finally, a printing of this card with the right art and the right border.

Wow, lovin' this new art!
4.5/5, really solid card, especially in multiplayer.

I like the new border, but I would have prefered the older artwork. The radioactive potatoe just doesn't look right to me.
I am glad that they reprinted Fellwar Stone though, no matter what picture it ended up with. It's solid multiplayer acceleration that is much under-appreciated. Printing it in the Commander precons will hopefully introduce it to players who haven't tried / heard of it.

Gotta love the Welfare Stone.
Great to use alongside cards like Sen Triplets, Ice Cave, Necrotic Ooze... anything where there's a color of mana you only need because of what an opponent has.

What is it with Wizard's new hand fetish? Have you seen the new promo art for the Moxes? I remember some newer cards in the same style as well, but their names escape me at the moment. And you can't blame the artist, except for the Moxes, they all have different artists. :-/

@OmegaSerris: well, this is art by John Avon, who sort of has a lot of experience drawing hands - Fury Charm, Evolution Charm, Dawn Charm, Piracy Charm, Midnight Charm, Upwelling (scourge version)...
I'm not exactly thrilled by this as acceleration in Commander. I may be mistaken, but if won't it produce only colorless if your opponent's colors are different from your commander's? I might be a little spoiled in terms of acceleration because I always play green, though.

Could have potential in a "you control target card" deck. Let's you play their abilites in addition to whatever else you might want to do with them.

@Lash_of_Dragonbreath: I think that, even if your opponent is playing different colors than you, this would still work if they have any "one of any color" lands, which are pretty popular in EDH. The land still has the ability to tap for those colors; the player using the land just can't take advantage of that. Also keep in mind that EDH games are often multi-player, so it's likely that some opponent or another will have the color you need.

Mana Potato, is what my play group calls it. When looking at the card a bit closer, I realize that it does in fact look like on.
