    It's gonna be like playing Numberwang, but with themes.

    Is this a Radical Idea or would that be too much of a Risk factor for WotC?

    This seems like it's going to be some kind of low cost of entry / casual friendly product.

    Interesting take for tapped Duals. Pauper-playable?

    Edit: Another one:


    Don't really see the appeal at that mana cost for Legacy.

    4-mana Legends might be something of a thing in the set.



    I just think this is nice art for a Forest, haha.

    A quick Gatherer search says there are 7 currently, 6 from Battlebond and 1 from Modern Horizons.
    They look like Tieflings or something. Face horns and pointy teeth.

    Pretty sure Azrael was the name of some angel in some game. Tiefling/Aasimar would be the D&D equivalent.

    That is literally the name of an Hebrew or Quranic angel.

    But yeah, I'm pretty sure the D&D connection is the salient one here.

    Well, at least they aren't all 4 mana. Not sure what to make of this card, but it is at least interesting being only two mana. The activated ability is awfully strong, but not sure it justifies itself in Legacy.

    Liliana of the Veil curves right into it. You could also use cards like Anvil of Bogardan or Geier Reach Sanitarium to force more discards - fun with Narset and/or Leovold since Tinybones is quite splashable.

    It's an odd card for sure.

    Edit: The suggestion of Oppression is somewhat interesting.

    T3 hymn your opponent draw 2? Then late game just finish your opponent outright? Seems strong.

    I'm pretty sure you only ever draw one card per end step with this regardless of how many cards were discarded by an opponent.

    It will only trigger once per end step, no longer how much they discard. (But won't trigger if they discard none)

    Seems strong. Even Land, Ritual, Tinybones, Discard is a decent play IMO. Generally maybe decks run more discard and it can function as Bob 5+.

    Edit: Also, it triggers each end step not just your end step so maybe combine it with discard and cheap cards like Geier Reach Sanitarium to force discards on opponents end steps as well so you get more card draw.

    Raven's Crime can also be fueled with the extra drawn lands. Would it fit into a 8 Rack variant? It clashes with Smallpox, though. And being pretty much the only creature paints a big, fat target onto it for creature removal.

    My first thought was comics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azrael_(comics)
