This one's interesting for two reasons: one, it
says "from anywhere", meaning anything from an
opposing Millstone to Wrath to your own instants
and sorceries resolving will put cards back into
your library. And two, it's an Aura-
Enchant Player, meaning even though you'll
probably want to play it on yourself, you could
also randomly demolish an opponent's strategy of
Dredge or reanimation or whatnot. If only
it were red/green instead of green/white, I'd be
tempted to use it in an all-burn deck so it
would turn every Incinerate into a small Beacon
of Destruction. I don't know if green and
white can pull off an all-spell deck, but I'd be
interested to see someone try.
In most constructed games, this won't have
enough impact on a game unless it's the
cornerstone in a combo. In Limited, it
might be nice to get your spells back, and you
might actually start seeing cards twice given
the small deck size, but the fact that it has so
little impact on the board makes it little more
than a quirky Johnny card.

This is such a powerful card in the abstract, I
think that if it hasn't seen play it's simply
because it hasn't had a chance to. The effect is
awfully similar to Leyline of the Void, and I
wouldn't be surprised if one day it becomes
almost as ubiquitous. The fact you have to pay
mana for it is a slight downer, but at least its
mana cost is cheap. And it can go in mono-green
decks.
Constructed: 3/5
Casual: 2/5
Limited: 2/5 (because it stops Persist)

This card had my Jonny head spinning when I
first saw it. For one, this allows you to rip
through your deck without running the risk of
milling yourself. Now when I went looking for
combo's, I came hard pressed to find a great
one. What I think this will ulitimately be used
for is yet another graveyard hate card. Sorry
dredge, Sorry Bridge From Below, etc... No
place in limited. Sideboard...here this card
comes. However, I would love to hear from the
person that finds the combo.
Constructed: 2

Constructed: Anti-dredge. Can cause all sorts of
problems for graveyard related decks. Not many
green and white only decks, but can be spash in
either type.
Casual: Not to exciting for the casual crowd,
maybe if someone has a crazy reanimator deck.
Limited: Not great for Sealed or Draft. Only
thing it works against is perist. Good side deck
card for anyone who drafted or made a sealed
deck with alot of perist creatures in it.
This is one of those cards that is sure to show
up against combo decks. Anything that can
manipulate the graveyard is going to be afraid
of this card. It's amusing though, because at
first glance a lot of players give cards like
these very little respect. Tornament guys knew
exactly what to do with this card the minute
they saw it. Unfortuantely, it's pretty much a
sideboard card for tournament players and has
very little value in limited or casual play.
