I'm happy to see this is a rare card, as I won't get upset if I don't have any. Once
again, the flaw of this card is its limited scope of effect. It only gets creatures and
characters. Even worse, it puts the targeted card back into your opponent's
library instead of their discard pile. That's like being generous and healing your
opponent for one point of damage. Wouldn't you rather wait until you had one
more lesson out to Diffindo their card, and thus get rid of it for good? Or use
Scribblifors, "Caught!", or Picking on Neville? For a seven power spell, you
should expect more than this.

This card is exactly like Vanish -_-; And, on the bottom of their deck?
You're ADDING cards to their life? =/ Useless, and the odds that you'll be
able to pick a character off with this before its effect is used is little.
=/ The creatures you have a better chance on, but they aren't the strongest
card anymore. There are better denial cards out there, this one is near
the bottom of them.

I didn’t like this card when it was named Vanish and the new name
hasn’t really changed my mind. It has limited usage but it is semi
diverisfied because it can target creatures and characters but for my seven
power I’d rather play Scribblifors not this card. The one good point
about it I have found is that it doesn’t put the card in the discard pile
where they can get it back easily but on the bottom of the deck where it
is pretty much useless.

Oh no the students and creatures are being petrified, oh who cares! This
card is just not as good as it could have been. Its sandwiched in between
Caught! and Diffindo which are two better options, and even then Incarcifors
and Rabbit Slippers are better creature defense. This card would have been
ok if they made it so your opponent discarded the card you picked, but as is,
they only put it on the bottom of their deck, well wow, I just turned the tide
of the game there. This card may appear useful but there are easily much much
better choices and I think you will have no problem finding them.

Doesn't this remind you of Vanish?
It seems like Wizards is trying to slip old card's effects in as new cards, possibly for a "CS only" format..
Anyways.. it is interesting to see how the times have changed since Vanish. Vanish isn't as good as it was
before, and this is a Vanish but way harder to find. In QC, it was common, so you had much great chance of finding
a Common out of an 80 card set, than you do of finding a Rare out of a 140 card set. If you really want to use this,
trade this off to a collector and stick with Vanish. (Unless, of course, you're playing in a CS only tourney.
)

Well if you dig Vanish, you will dig this card. At seven I would rather
play Scribblifors, but this is a very unique way to get around Halloween
Feast which is just kinda fun. I think characters are becoming more common
in decks and creatures are everprevelant of course. Not a bad option
nowadays, but perhaps not the best either.
