So many autocard links... so little time. I guess I will add to them... Rooftop Storm + Gravecrawler + this and a zombie in play= Infinite storm. And infinite damage if you have a Pandemonium or a Warstorm Surge out.

4.5/5

For some reason, I keep remembering the card name as "Cruel Summoning" which makes me think that the gals in the art are Bananarama :(

@Findlesham: No and no. You'll get a faster, more thorough response to questions like this in the Rules Q&A. They actually have DCI judges and Rules Advisors there.

This card is easily one of my favorites. It affects the mana curve pretty ridiculously.
Hollowhenge Beast is a great example - a 5/5 for 3GreenGreen is good, but not amazing. a 4/4 for 1GreenGreen, though, is absolutely ridiculous. other good examples (from other sets) are Voracious Hatchling and Greater Basilisk.

I suppose this is the closest thing to Dark Ritual that Black has gotten in a while. It might be a test to see how balanced it is with added drawbacks before they do a reprint.

Looks like the Zombies finally figured out a shortcut around Planar Gate, by the looks of things, it's a MUCH faster route, though it seems to take years from your life lol..

@Fenix: Well worth it in my opinion, no drawback for you, opp gets -2/-2 to all his guys. Only thing is, you have to remember while building that SICK NASTY B or B/W Cheap Zombie deck is, don't rely heavely on Norn, or Heartless.. For either side could fall and then what? You're back to an average deck.. Maybe splash something like Rooftop Storm, just in case for a little insurance.

Ok so, what if I play this and summon Tuktuk the explorer for (m), he would die and I would get a 5/5 out the gate, well pretty much out the gate, just for playing the spell and tapping a mountain? Yah I think I'm going to do that!

Mesmeric Fiend and this. For B, you play him and he dies instantly, then you get to choose the order of the enter and leave play effects. Put the enter on the bottom of the stack, then put the leave play on top. The result is that he tries to return a card, but he hasn't taken one yet, so they get nothing. Then he removes a card, and since this is already dead, they can never get it back.

There are so many cards that receive massive buffs to their usefulness with Heartless Summoning.
Viridian Emissary: Now a Rampant Growth for {G}
Perilous Myr: Now a free Shock at sorcery speed
Necropede: "{0}: Target creature gets a -1/-1 counter". If you have Hand of the Praetor in play as well, it's also free poison counters on an opponent (same for Plague Myr)!
Myr Superion: A free 4/5

And that's just from the Scars block!

a 5/5 Wurmcoil Engine for 4 is never fun to play against.
