The problem is that you pay 4 to get them back, which is pretty huge by legacy standards. Also, we already have Shadow of the Grave.

Regarding the "it's not colorless in the library"
They get revealed:
They've printed a whole slew of these top deck things recently - precognition field, epic experiment, citadel, and now mystic forge.
I wonder whether mystic forge will find a spot in affinity.
...
I wonder if the synergy with Vesperlark is deliberate.
Any thoughts on Brought Back (Faith's Reward for two target permanents) in legacy? Recycling two fetchlands for WW is pretty strong.
And throw in Kazuul's Toll Collector and Sunforger for more fun? It seems marginal to try to put two cards together without it winning right away.
I wonder if split cards count for one or two mana costs.
The storm trigger puts all the copies on the stack at once. So the leyline triggers go on the stack after all the copies are already there.
[Storm Spell] [Storm Trigger] [Leyline Trigger]
...
I wonder if that works with the tap ability on DRS, and if the extra mana comes with the same restrictions (for example, can you tap Beastcaller Servant mana to cast a sorcery?)
Edit: Does it...
Yarkok does double up on landfall triggers, which is significantly better than panharmonicon. The casting cost is pretty hefty though.
There's a whole slew of stuff: Zombie tribal synergies like Gravecrawler, non-zombie graveyard value like Bloodghast or dredge, madness, and good old-fashioned Trinisphere.
This seems like it has combo potential with stuff like Tezzeret the Seeker or Molten Psyche.
Season of Growth seems pretty "win-more." It could get slotted into glimpse of nature decks like elves and cheerios too, but I doubt it would make them any better.
It seems pretty comparable to Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle which is strong, but doesn't seem to be legacy viable.
There could be a fun interaction with Soulflayer, but you're probably right. That said, they may print some combination of creatures that busts the ability later.
Street Wraith and Edge of Autumn are still around, though you'll want a different combo engine than Ad Nauseam with those.
Zendikar's Roil,Omnath, Locus of Rage or Rite of Replication with kicker also work. It's pretty decent with Warp World and other stuff that puts bodies into play in bulk. :laugh:
Firecat Blitz is...
The triggers from the copies certainly do. I don't know whether the one for the original spell resolves before the copied spells do off the top of my head.
Leyline of fight storm. People play a lot of stuff that targets players.
It looks pretty strong - full stop. People are trying to 'symmetry break' it with fancy stuff, but you can just run it with draw effects so that you get the card you tutored for first.
Twin...
WotC has heard the demands for "more than just damage" and has decided to include the ephemeral elementals part of Red's portfolio more heavily.
The rare one seems like it has a bit of potential. ...
