      This is a playable card for blue decks that want cards in the graveyard. It works well with Wrenn and Six and also works well with Murktide Regent.

      I do not this it will be a staple for anything but given the cards in the set it is one of the better cards.

        @moorebrother1 At least it doesn't get blunted by narset/leovold/hullbreacher!

          This card is better than Thought Scour. I really liked what it did for card selection and I was able to run 4 Murktide and get them out fast. The flashback is actually good.

            @moorebrother1 The flashback is the only reason the card is on this website. Also nice to hear mind sharing a list?

                That's a nice list. Why do you not play Mystic Sanctuary?

                    @moorebrother1 Why no Gush/Gitaxion probe?

                      @serracollector I keep adding it and removing. Believe it or not - paying life actually matters in the format right now if you are not a super aggro or an over the top combo deck paying life really matter. It's why I am not playing Deep Analyse.

                      I think that there are too many auto includes in Blue decks right now and I am experimenting with adding and removing these auto includes: Gitaxian Probe, Merchant Scroll, Gush, Treasure Cruise and Narset.

                      I have just starting really playing again and the format is super fast right now. Tempo decks like Delver will struggle if they cannot get pressure on the board fast and protect it. Probe does not help protect the threat.
