Infinity would you draft that card in limited
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"

I think that is very wrong

Wait you get both things? As written kind of implies that you do. If that's true the card is insane. 4 mana 3/2 which cascades into another spell and gives you card selection?

Yes. You get both things. It will always cascade into the spell Strategic Planning, which was considered powerful enough of a 2 mana card selection spell that it was colorshift printed into a modern horizons limited format.

Oh I didnt even suss that out in my read through. Yeah I mean a 3/2 for 4 which draws the best card in your top 3 when cast is strong.

I agree and I would draft it even in sets with no graveyard synergies. I think a set having graveyard synergies only moves it from "should never be wheeling" to "jawdropping".
I think a similar card perhaps with the flavor text "The stitcher died years ago, but her dutiful assistant still keeps the laboratory well stocked." would help out the struggling midnight hunt blue black zombies archetype a lot

I did a cursory look at building delver in standard: went right to look at the available two mana interaction... And then stopped trying to build delver. Pleased you have found success with it

In post 8187 , Thestatusquo wrote: I brewed up a UR dragons deck right after rotation and it turns out I was not the only one with the idea lol.
This is what I've been playing. Almost up to Diamond in a few days:
saw this and decided to try it out. Looks fun.
First match is a mirror except he was running delver in it instead of the dragon eggs.
I think your deck is far better but I still lost just because I'm bad and don't understand magic.
Looking for love in Alderaan places.

ok here's my deck
there should be 4 elite and 4 quandrix but i didn't have wildcards
this deck is probably bad i just played against a lot of clunky control decks. maybe it can beat the dragons deck idk
@deathnote you should try
mono green if you have the wildcards

might try something more like:
-3 Disdainful Stroke // +2 Saw it Coming
-1 You Find The Villain's Lair // +2 Snakeskin Veil
-1 Spectral Adversary // +1 Behold the Multiverse

saw it coming is cancel in this deck i think. playing more 3 mana counters over disdainful might be good though
spectral adversary is very good i wouldn't cut any
snakeskin veil is an interesting idea
