   Unthinkable? Why, it’s hardly unreasonable, I thought at first. What makes Black Lotus and the five Moxes so powerful is that they can be played for no mana cost. This card costs nine mana, and thus only useful as a game finisher.

   But then I realized: although Time Walk, Ancestral Recall, and Timetwister are sorceries, however, the three abilities corresponding to them do not require sacrificing this card, the mana cost of which is only slightly more than that of Beacon of Tomorrows, which only lets you shuffle it back into your library, not keep it to use again and again.

   So this is a one-card infinite turn combo. In which case, it should indeed be more expensive to play; the cost of Coalition Victory, for example, would be appropriate.

   The comment above mine is unthinkable!

   No he’s right — this card is unfit to see print in the tournament-legal set it was clearly intended for.

   Shouldn’t this guy have a milling ability that triggers when he is glimpsed?

   Thats why you hire a Royal Assassin, that way he can glimpse it and then kill it.
