An interesting card for a blue white build. If
you use W to cast it, you have a decent creature
that happens to let you pick a card from your
top 3 when it comes into play. Very nice. Very
solid in limited play, and maybe casual worthy
too.

You can think of it as a top-o'-the-library
tweak spell for 2U, or you can think of it as a
1/3 Vigilance with a cantrip for 1WU. I'd say
either one is reasonable, but the point of this
card, like yesterday's split card, is that its
true power isn't one way of playing it or the
other, but the fact that you can choose which
way to play it. That versatility makes it solid
in Limited, where a variety of different mana
bases could support it. As for Constructed, both
halves are a bit lackluster compared to some
other W/U creatures out there.

I don’t like him. If you’re playing U/W there
are better cards you can be using and this guy
simply doesn’t do enough to make the cut. His
effect is ok but he’s no Telling Time or
Compulsive Research, not to mention that a Wrath
of God on turn four is a lot better than a chump
blocker on turn three that costs 1UW for all
intents and purposes.

I don’t think I like this guy on this format
either. His effect is no great thing, he does
have the ability to keep a few creatures from
coming after you but if you find yourself
playing U/W in limited, the last thing you need
is more defensive cards.
