The Bear being a Bear and a Bear is just fantastic.

White beast within seems nice. Would call of the herd even be played in modern nowadays?
Now they only Need to print a wasteland analogue and modern will really feel like old time Legacy. A snow variant with a snow mana activation possibly, so that it work best in mono-color decks and doesn't Simply go in 3 color tempo. I really love the new snow manland as well.
I'm far from being the only one who has the exact problem with it if you look at social media.
I'm just hating on a shitty flavor text. And no, just references to two old, iconic cards in a poorly constructed, awful sounding sentence alone is NOT good flavor, yet people gobble it up anyway. Nostalgia shouldn't be an excuse for crap. But hey, I member!

Back to topic:
That's an interesting take on splicing. Hopefully we're going to see more of that in the future.
Taking away the arcane sub-type might actually put some cards into the realm of 'playable'.
I predict that red = threaten, green = rampant growth, blue = boomerang but non-land, black = Coercion
EDIT: Umezawa's Charm seems to be just short of good. Flavor? Incredible. Power level? Should have gotten 'choose 2' like PirateKing said above.

Splice without the arcane restriction might make it playable but probably still only in EDH (where I've thus far never seen anyone splice anything in years of play).
Man, that Generous Gift sure is a White Elephant.

I'll see myself out.
People do splice Desperate Ritual and Through the Breach occasionally.
Modern only has 16 existing bears, and there's what 4 bears on the way? That's a 25% increase in total bears.
Also, this new common bear (is powerful or a common) is a really cute story
