Well that thing kills most of standard

Except siege rhino.

And tasgiur. Abzan control got a nice one sided board wipe.

Tainted remedy is such a flavorful card!!!

I like how they reprinted {demonic tutor} in a sneaky way.
{3}{B}{B} - search library for a card, if 2 instant/sorcery cards in grave, get {B}x3.

Still costs 5 and not 2!

But damn, Tainted Remedy is a functionally fixed {Rain of Gore} and pairs nicely with {Beacon of Immortality}.

Does anybody know if slivers will be brought back in origins?? Not like they did in m14/m15 but like they were in tempest/stronghold

Damn new type of {opalescence} card. Oh the rules shenanigans!

Oh wow!!! A damn near  {Timetwister} reprint! Too bad it ends your turn if used on your turn.

I can't see many decks running this, unfortunately.

Nope. Wrong time, wrong planes.
Those slivers lived at Rath, and I believe it was before the Shattering.

Play it in blue red burn. They cast their stuff at instant speed anyways.

The problem is, will your new hand beat theirs? Maybe in a burn shell as a finisher. Not in a control shell, to dangerous. Even with a {Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind} reprint (not happening) I can't see it in any other decks.

Maybe if will is a thing for that enchantment? Mill 14 and fresh cards?

Nevermind it shuffles graveyards back in.

However, Nekusar EDH just got it as a new toy 💀

Just do you know, if the Turn Ends, none of your Chasm Skulker or Nekusar or new-Grindstoneish triggers will get to resolve.  You just move to Clean-Up where nothing gets placed on the stack.

That's why you have  {Leyline of Anticipation} and  {Vedalken Orrery}!!!

Things can go on the stack in Cleanup - Madness has to be able to, for example.
