Past in Flames (3/21)
Storm’s best friend, Past in Flames is the
definition of a finisher. The main aim with it
is to, after flooding your mana pool with cheap
mana, reflood it and then go into a Grapeshot or
Empty the Warrens. It's not a hard spell to work
your way into in the right build, and giving
everything flashback is powerful. It can even
flash back itself, so you have two attempts to
go off if one misfires.
Past in Flames has the downside of being a
narrow-ish card. It really only works in decks
that can generate a lot of fast mana, because 4
mana to turn on flashback means you're not
getting a ton of mileage out of a conventional
set-up. It also only affects cards already in
your graveyard. Make no mistake, Past in Flames
is powerful, but it has a lot of demands in
deck-building.
