    Orb of Insight "walk" returns 0. So That would be a negative, unless they changed the name.

    Also, Mark Rosewater already said that lotus belongs to "lotus cobra", which will probably be a chaff uncommon meant for limited like "lotus guardian".

    Luminarch Ascension -
    Enchantment

    At the beginning of each of your opponent's end steps, if you took no damage this turn, you may put a quest counter on ~.

    : Put a 4/4 Angel token with flying onto the battlefield. Activate this ability only if there are 4 quest counters on ~.


    Notice no sacrifice on this one. Seems good, when are you taking damage in Enchantress?
    But as always there is Mesa :0
    Seems worse in Enchantress than Sigil, but hot damn does that look sexy for Counter-Top as a way to break through ground stalls. Goyf on Goyf action = you take no damage, so you sit on this for a little while and BAM! Suddenly, Angels, thousands of them!

    It would almost be good against control, except it happens to have the same CMC as Goyf and Counterbalance, making it a sad panda versus EE. Useless against combo, could be decent against aggro if you can stall them for long enough.

    Probably good in the mirror as a sideboard card, although the prevalence of Pridemage might make it worse. Still, probably better than Jitte in a deck with a low creature count.

    This set is getting more and more awesome every day!

    Too bad it can't be kicked with Vial. At the very least, an interesting removal choice for black-heavy decks.

    Good for standard, gives black a way to off the Stag. Also, very nicely costed, since only monoblack can really take advantage of him (BBB is pretty hard for standard manabase even with fetches).

    Though for legacy I think Shriekmaw is still better.

    One thing that you might have overlooked is that this is a Vampire. With the Vampire Lacerator, Bloodghast, Vampire Nighthawk, and now this guy joining Vampire Nocturnus and Child of Night, we might see some Vampire tribal decks in Legacy. No, those decks probably won't be great, but they may be just viable enough to pop up from time to time.

    As a tribal, Vampires are definitely weaker than all the others, but with Gatekeeper, it now has some built-in utility that the other tribals had.

    "extra turn" as one query returns 0 as well...

    Any multiple-word query returns zero, the orb won't take anything more than one word.

    "Take" appears once, and I don't know of any other mechanic that uses that word.

    Side note about Luminuous. Its broken badly in EDH (especialy since you can use it EOT it in a 5 player game) But aside from that the card will probably be junk.
    I c h o r i d - my anti blue
    Manaless Ichorid- At least its cheeper than standard.
    We admit for the sake of the exercise that following is true:
    Landstill > Fromat
    Non-Basic Hate > Landstill
    Basics > Non-Basic Hate
    We can therefore logically conlude that
    Basics > Format

    I don't know, When you manage to keep it online, one out of four opponents will probably attack you... otherwise they're all screwed. I think the card's got a bull's eye all over it.

    Turbo fog fans rejoice!! Finally a win-con specifically designed for that deck. Plus it almost comboes with Arboria.

    I make more sense than you think, the last ritual card we saw was Scarscale Ritual.

    Yup, a great addition to mostly-black suicide decks, while the enchantment spoiled yesterday looks far less abusable, and thus less good, than hoofprint of the stag.
