      R: get +2/+0 until end of turn, activate this only once a turn

      so we're never playing memnite again in bazaar.

      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.

          i suppose it's possible we still play some memnite. previously the options for 9th-12th free creature would have meant playing ornithopter or one of the other 0 power creatures, or playing an X spell (stonecoil).

            WOTC really pulled out a lot of stops for this set. I think this set has the highest concentration of 0 mana alt casting cards ever.

              @protoaddict Does it beat vintage masters?

                @botvinik vintage masters had no cards with 0 mana alternate casting costs, as power/crypt/led all are just cast for normal cost, not alternate.

                MH2 so far has the incarnation cycle, the suspend cycle(if it is a cycle, we have BRG so far), and this.

                    VMA has Battle Screech, FOW, Gush, all the untap lands used to cast this spells, more suspend cards than this set so far, Icorid which arguably counts, Fireblast, and the OG Basking rootwalla.

                      @botvinik I forgot a few of those, though VMA doesn't actually have suspend spells and i wouldn't count the untap lands as free spells any more than i would count dark ritual.

                      counting suspend spells the top set would just be time spiral (/remastered). not counting them the answer is actually still mercadian masques, with 23 cards that are cast by pitching cards from hand, paying life, having an opponent gain life, sacrificing mountains, bouncing islands, etc. nemesis had 16.

                      very few other sets have any, usually at most a cycle of 5; this set having a madness 0 card, mogg salvage, and a cycle of pitch spells is more than that, and i believe the most since nemesis.

                        I messed up my gatherer search and git suspend cards in there from iconic masters thanks for the correction.
