Redirect Lightning got lost in the sauce;

Don't think this card is good for fair decks, such as for Thoughtseize and removal protection, on being too situational. But having a card that protects your combo from Thoughtseize and Forces alike is for sure interesting.

While I respect the choice, Fury will be so offended by you right now.

First meta takes:
Big winner is UR Tempo; interesting to see whether they develop towards Tamiyo or Delver builds, depending on the required pressure versus Ancient Tomb decks.

Midrange & control breathe a sigh of relief with Nadu gone.

Oops! may capitalize on graveyard hate leaving short-term.

Good luck 🫡

Same, all the time, and it's so stupid 🤣 also 0% chance that I'm ever going to learn from it.

Would love to fix the image but leaving for holiday and without my PC 😩

Keeping you all sharp I guess, seeing who reads it ❤️

Secret identity should read:
It has two modes that are interesting for Infect and it's blue, making it an interesting card. Both effects are enough below par, and there are cards that combine both well enough, that this doesn't seem worth a precious slot.
If you need more blue, just play a cantrip.

I always like to remind myself that WotC decided it was a good idea to produce that set, as it really puts their other decisions in perspective.

Even more recently, the fact that neither Ixalan nor Rivals or Ixalan made the list is concerning. But since we're including more fringe releases, there's no way that Innistrad Double feature doesn't go straight to the top of the list.

Also - I love how hyped you are about this card - because: Same!

Playing completely different lists than I was working on thought, which is Esper Control, BUG Control, and 'Cradle Control' variants. After starting my tests in UB Tempo and Grixis Tempo, but those didn't quite work for me.

I kind of agree. Except that, I have to ask, what space ship?

This is just some eggs in grass with some alien-tech looking growth lamps; right?

I had it on my list of card that looked interesting, but couldn't really find a reason that any (existing) shell would want it. It's a bit mana intensive unless you're moving it around with cards like Welder, and I don't see such a deck having space for Relic at this mana cost.

Certainly not a 0.
