      Wildfire Devils

      3R

      Creature - Devil

      When Wildfire Devils enters the battlefield and at the beginning of your upkeep, choose a player at random. That player exiles an instant or sorcery card from their graveyard. Copy that card. You may cast the copy without paying its mana cost.

      Devils sow grief and harvest glee.

      4/2

      Interesting in blue matchups? Possible sb card, or is the rng too big a factor?

        they choose the card, so the first triggers are all just going to hit counterspells, removal with no target, etc until those cards are gone.

        A grave is the safest place to store ill-gotten treasures.

        NYSE 3 winner, vintage champs 2015 top 4, vintage champs mox emerald 2021 top 4.

          To clarify, the player that is randomly chosen is the one that chooses the card. 50% of the time, that's going to be you choosing good cards from your graveyard. The other 50% of the time, it's going to be your opponent choosing bad cards.

              It's still free cards and still exiles them. Worst case they choose a counterspell? Any other option is free CA?

                Random effects are fun and unexplored in magic game design. This is not good enough though. 4 mana is a big investment for a card that has such a high failure rate.
