Fair point, I wonder if we will get other magi based of the iconic cards.
I could see it happening, but I'm trying to imagine what they'd do... if this guy is a sorcery on legs, it would make sense that the other four would be similar...
... Magus of the Plowshare? Magus of the Spiral? I dunno...
Helloooooo nurse!
Any bets on where this card's price point is going to land? Surely one of the chase rares...
$2. No way this is a chase card because it's so damn slow. In our format there are much faster ways of pulling this off. Now, Red is the one color that has hasty clone effects that could offset the slowness but that's why I say $2 and not $.50.
Even if you give it haste, a five mana wheel isn't worth much. We even have it with 2 mana miracle. I'm sure I'll play it some but It's destined for the bargain bin like every draw seven printed after urza block.
Great flavor text, very reminiscent of late '90s MTG. Power level-wise, I think he's a little too slow for Legacy. Too bad he's not Modern-legal, it'd be interesting to see what cropped up around him.

These days, some wizards are finding they have a little too much deck left at the end of their $$$.

I prefer this over Reforge the Soul in my Godo deck. Having a body to hold equipment comes in handy. The instant also matters every once in a while.
It's worth noting how much better it is to Kiki-Jiki a Wheel than to Reiterate a Wheel. Red's ability to copy spells is great, but wheels aren't usually the kind of thing you get max value out of when you string them together (unless you are in one of the strategies that likes that). This guy being able to beat for 3 is awesome. He's a Wizard and that'll matter sometimes. He's Sun Titanable. And He's Cloneable. Also, self-sacrificing can be useful too.

Based on Dualcaster Mage, I'd guess $2-3 unless it see Legacy play or something.

That deck was, in my opinion, the strongest of all 5
With all the artifact recursion it did not need something like this at all
Btw, i need one of these, who's trading it?
Selling some cards I don't want.
Generally less than tcg mid.
