Sorry for not being able to come up with a better pun.
We got a first look as well as some animu cardus.
Welp none of these are playable
For my confessions, they burned me with fire/
And found I was for endurance made
A bunch of cards got spoiled. Here some interesting ones:
Alot depends on whether it has toughness of 1 or not to survive Bowmasters. Sorcery speed also makes it worse than Petty Theft.
Looks like a good removal spell for white (Stompy) decks.
It's a 2/1
This doesn't look to terrible but is probably not good enough for anything.
Not sure about the tone of the set as it seems like some "Un"-cards have slipped in:
Update the thread title with more Asinine Antics, that card name is excellent
I hope this doesn't awaken anything in me
Cast with saccing a mox gives you a PiF or Tendrils directly.Beseech the Mirror

Bargain
Search your library for a card, exile it face down, then shuffle. If this spell was bargained, you may cast the exiled card without paying its mana cost if that spell's mana value is 4 or less. Put the exiled card into your hand if it wasn't cast this way.
Quite mana hungry but Ward {2} is strong.Sleep-Cursed Faerie
U
Creature - Faerie Wizard
Flying, ward 2
Sleep-Cursed Faerie enters the battlefield tapped with three stun counters on it. (If it would become untapped, remove a stun counter from it instead.)
1U: Untap Sleep-Cursed Faerie.
It takes 7 mana to have it enter and attack the next turn. 3 stun is just too much unless you have some way of eating those counters. Soul Diviner? Dress Down? Chisei Heart of Oceans?
Ah, I thought stun only worked for the untap step not every untap.
Yeah then you need something to make it work.
Nesting Grounds and move the stun counter on your opponents lands?
Is Suncleanser viable in any context?
Heartless Act seems too bad.
For max lulz:
Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus
Tayam, Luminous Enigma
Aether Snap keeps winning.
Aside from combo pieces, Beseech the Mirror could also grab Sheoldred, Karn and other value cards.
Definitely a card to look out for.
Edit: Apparently you can use Gaea's Will as Yawgwin with Beseech the Mirror.

It could also hit 1-of hate pieces or something like Wheel of Fate, and, at cmc 4 it's compatible with the cascade suite.
This one looks interesting. It can assassinate Planeswalkers and seems custom-made for Hardened Scales decks.
Also works well with Mystic Forge.
Funny card that also gives you a token to tribute and kills Thalia.
This guy seems faerly useful.
Flying Dreadnoughts + looting seems good.
That might also be ok.Siphon Ego

Sorcery
Target player reveals their hand. You choose a nonland card from it. That player discards that card. Then exile a card from your hand if you don't control a Faerie.
While better than Lazav vs Karakas and Surgical target Dreadnought, this card comes in a color that has no playable turn 1 threats since the banning of DRS <-this is far and away the main problem with black going on for years (for every deck not derived from Zombardment, which has Stitcher's and Gravecrawler).
This creates a number of downstream problems as a 2-shot Dreadnought deck takes on a massive slow down while opponents develop mana and see more removal spells. Even if you get 1 hit in, you don't have enough damage coming from other angles - you still need to do the Dreadnought thing again. While slowing down you also pick up losses to Daze and the inability to trade with DRC/Delver.
These problems all precede just how awful this is vs 40% Bowmaster format.
If you're thinking about this card, play JVP or Azcanta. If you're thinking about any of those 3, play Scroll of Fate.
So you can cast Doomsday from Library for 1 more mana, instead of having to tutor/dig into it.
8x Doomsday.dec
Valid sacrifice fodder includes: Baleful Strix, Bowmasters Army token, Mox (after tapping it for mana)...
