Well.this one seems kind of interesting, but in the end, I think there is some sizzle but not much substance to this card. The most important thing to

remember with this card is that IT DOESN'T STOP THE SPELL YOUR OPPONENT IS CASTING. So, while you are hoping to use Parallectric Feedback to deal a bunch of damage, you kind of don't really want to see your opponent playing a big fat creature or other powerful, expensive spell. Feedback's four mana cost makes it hard to keep untapped land available for. Just not much to like here. I DO like the idea of knowing in the late game that the next big spell my opponent plays might KILL HIM. Might be worth trying. Playing this card in constructed is a bit more cut and dried. You shouldn't. Well, that may be too harsh, this card COULD find a home in the sideboard of mono red burn decks. In the end, there are two kinds of good cards in Magic, creatures and cards that can get rid of creatures, this card is neither.

CONSTRUCTED: 2.0
CASUAL: 3.0
LIMITED: 2.5

This card is fun. I'd expect a lot of casual players to want this card. In many casual games large spells of 6+ mana get played. This thing will let you get back at them for playing those cards. However, in constructed play, this could end up being a neat metagame card. If people are playing lots of dragon, expensive fliers, or high cost spells like Tooth and Nail, you can get some serious damage in.

Constructed: 2.5
Casual: 4
Limited: 2.5

Parallectric Feedback - I actually kinda like this card. The damage to cost potential here is extremely high. In limited, at least, the chance that your opponent will cast a spell that costs 5 or more is very high. Against green decks (especially Selesnya), the damage could be considerably higher. If there's an Izzet deck in the future of Ravnica Block Constructed, I fully expect this to make an appearance.

Constructed Rating - 3.1
Casual Rating - 2.5
Limited Rating - 3.0
