(extra combat was the coldsnap pitch spell, no?)
Fury? Yea, 2 cards though.

Re: Modern Horizons Spoilers
It still surprises me that a damage cannot be prevented sweeper hasn't been printed yet. Again, if it was pitchable, even better.
Re: Modern Horizons Spoilers
Seeing the writing on the wall, likely won't happen now either. We will get a black pitch will neg shit and red will go on having sweet fuck all to deal with a resolved TNN.

While likely not good enough for Legacy, is this some sort of combo piece with Carrion Feeder/recurring Zombies?
Re: Modern Horizons Spoilers
Contrary to most other cards you try to hype here, this IS good enough for Legacy...

Seeing as the other card he posted is a shoe in for Lands I'd say cut him some slack.

Once again - not trying to hype anything. Trying to post up cards that are getting spoiled, haven't been posted up here, and might be interesting for Legacy. I think hype would look more like "OH MY GOD THIS CARD IS GOING TO REVOLUTIONIZE LEGACY BUY YOUR PLAYSET NOW OR YOU'LL REGRET IT ZOMBIE HYYYYYYYYPE TRAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIN!"

Carrion Feeder, Gravecrawler and Bridge From Below would let you draw 2 cards (and lose 2 life) for :b:.

Hard to say if that's going to be good enough for Legacy, but it does seem quite strong. Most removal that kills it is still a 2-for-1 as it replaces itself.
Edit: This + Gravecrawler + Phyrexian Altar is a DIY Bargain. That's worth pointing out since Zombardment lists already run Altar now. This could help to find combo pieces for infinite Zombies or infinite damage.

WotC can't get away from their red = direct damage design mantra. Pyrokinesis variant that can also hit planeswalkers would also fit the bill, though, both as a callback to a popular card and as a direct damage card.
White isn't particularly strong in terms of pitch cards. Another thing that might be possible is a variant of
Teferi's Protection to stop one-shot bullshit, but that seems rather unlikely.
Edit: Fact or Fiction got reprinted. Nifty reprint right there.
I designed this card a long time ago:

You may exile a red card from your hand instead of paying its mana cost. Copy target instant or sorcery spell, except that the copy is red. You may choose new targets for the copy.

Let's assume the rest of the cycle is used for police cards, some ideas:
Black:
- an Unmask variant (probably needs some retooling because WotC doesn't like instant discard)
- yet another GY hoser
- a creature kill spell
Nah man, the black one will be a free reanimate for anything under 3CC. i'll call it, Force from the Grave

Instant speed unearth? What's the best way to abuse that?

Probably a value play for tempo, getting back a Snapcaster Mage (which offsets the exiled card), or Eternal Witness (though that is better with unearth) or Laboratory Maniac.
I think it would be a very safe card to print.
Re: Modern Horizons Spoilers
Diabolic Edict got a reprint, just after they printed a better version last set. :rolleyes:

This could do some fun stuff with Dreadhorde Arcanist and Brainstorm/Faithless Looting:
T2: Arcanist
T3: Draw from draw step, land, Brainstorm, Fists of Flame, +5/+0 to Arcanist, swing, recycle Fist of Flame +6/+0, hitting for 12 while generating card advantage. Scary, given how Arcanist is already taking the format by storm.
or
T3: Draw from draw step, land, Faithless Looting, dump big spell, Fists of Flame, +4/+0 to Arcanist, swing, play any spell with a CMC up to 5 for free with Arcanist.

Just generating some value with Fists of Flame is probably good enough, as you can bring back anything with a CMC of 3 (like K Command) over the course of the game with Arcanist. Since Fists are replacing themselves, the card should be rarely dead as long as you can protect your creature.

Here i am, sitting here thinking that this is a cute card with Cabal Therapist while you build your own Yawgmoth's Bargain. Pfft, whatever, lol. Do you think this will make the cut for zombardment?
