This card exists only to be comboed with. And I
don't know of any good comboes that want it,
except maybe Leveler in Extended, or maybe some
Flashback-heavy decks? Either way, it's only as
good as the card you're comboing it with.
A card like this really needs to be built around
to work properly, or sometimes at all. I've
already heard of a few intrepid designers doing
exactly that. It reminds me a little of Doomsday
from the Weatherlight expansion, and can win the
game in much the same manner. An interesting
card with a lot of fun applications.
Constructed:
Lets make some weird Leveler combo...
Casual & Multiplayer:
If this card finds a home than casual is the
place to start. Everything starts at the casual
level doesn't it?
Limited:
You could Celestial Purge something of yours,
weird. Grab a bunch of Skeletons, Vampires, and
Zombies and use Undead Slayer, to much trouble.
Or just Hauting Echoes yourself when you do not
have much of a deck left. I see now real use for
this card in limited or sealed.
Overall it could be a fun wacky combo.
Constructed: 2
Casual: 3
Multiplayer: 2
Limited: 2

Today's card of the day is Mirror of Fate and
the last card of the day of September. I'm sure
there are several combinations that can make
this a powerful card, but the benefit would
rarely measure up to the intense risk involved.
You have to have face up exiled cards and then
switch your entire library for at most seven
cards. No matter what card you pull you are
vulnerable to all sorts of disruption and while
potentially fun, I can't seriously recommend
this card outside of a casual format.
In Constructed this could possibly be used for
some sort of win condition, but it would be too
vulnerable and involved to make any serious run
at winning tournaments. Keep this kind of
oddness to Casual unless someone finds a way to
break the Mirror.
To Casual turning this into a worthwhile engine
is a worthy goal and winning after exiling your
entire library would be solid bragging rights. I
don't see an immediate option at present, but
perhaps a future release will bring the missing
piece of the puzzle.
With Limited if I could give this card a zero
I'd ask for a lower scoring option... If this is
in one of your packs in Sealed or Booster just
be glad you have other packs to open and push it
to the side.
There is zero reason to ever try playing this
and even if you get a card or two exiled you are
very unlikely to win with it before you lose by
failing to draw a card.
For Multiplayer unless your combo involves
winning the game or all opponents losing any
other plan is likely to fail as you run out
cards to draw or get disrupted by one of the
other opponents.
