As someone who loved Soulfire and tried to play it in Modern, the card is actually good if he sticks around. The problem with him that I ran into, is that you want your deck to be relatively creature light and burn heavy, which means he's getting all the removal attention and it's hard to keep one on board. Kolaghan's command helps a little in that department. But to combo with Madcap? You'd want to strip their hand of removal, or try to catch them tapped out. Actually, now that I think about it, some BWR with targeted removal wouldn't be that hard to pull off.

So, it's a better Green Recall. Probably not really playable, but interesting for EDH at least.

How much energy will make Aetherworks marvel playable?
This plus the puzzleknots, maybe the black energy kill, or another energy creature? Idk, we're still only halfway.
Edit - also in a vacuum, this seems like a really pushed common. It's basically a 1/4 for U.
Ofc its better then the camel. Why would white have better 1 drops?
Hmmm i wonder if they print an engery producing land?

Yeah the red one is essentially a 3/2 for 1R.
We need some more storm hate, I wish they give even fucking mono green an hatebear that shuts the engine down![]()
