I don't know how good this card is, and only just learned about this card a couple days ago, but this feels like it could be uncommon in a set like this.
Total side note but I like how people are discussing running this over itself.
Well, it has to be said that Kolaghan is clearly better than Kolaghan. Considering what BR decks usually want and how stiff the competition in this guild is, there is no way that I would run Kolaghan over Kolaghan! Kolaghan might make it in as the sixth guild card or so. Kolaghan on the other hand ranks several places below that.
It was so funny to me when they described this as a downgrade to the original Zurgo during the Pax East panel. I was thinking if this is a downgrade, they should really "downgrade" all legendary creatures. Haha.
My deck designing is quite concise at this point:
1. Come up with deck idea
2. Realize this idea is somehow fundamentally similar to another deck I have or that is commonly played in my group
3. Decide I don't want to disassemble one of my existing decks
4. Give up and do nothing
I don't see the point of this new shroud mechanic. It's strictly worse than Hexproof. Threshold is pretty bad too, Delirium is a much better mechanic and probably easier to activate.
Otherwise this card is a pretty neat guy. Dodges removal and grows into a Primal Huntbeast. 3/5
At the least the name immediately clues you in about the card's value - and I mean value both in terms of play and $. Having to exile your own stuff (almost) always creates a feel-bad moment.
If WotC wants to include a middle finger in the rare slot, might as well call it Diminishing Returns.
Well thank god we got this one. Being a critical one of in Legacy "The Epic Storm" decks from 8 years ago. Not to mention the game changing one of in the Vintage Belcher decks... [/sarcasm]
I guess they had to print something to go with Belcher, but surely it could have been Jar.

I'm okay with this. There are no modern border versions of this card, unfortunately it's only played in belcher's sideboard. They probably should have made it an uncommon.

Memory Jar is on the reserved list. They were able to reprint it in FTV Relics before the premium loophole got closed.
Even the girl on the picture looks disappointed. I remember having stocks of that card back in the Alliances days, I even forgot it was reprinted in 6th Ed.
Theres a lot of "white space" between the text, so this should really have a flavour text to fill these blank area (the old text box was smaller and it fit right in).
But thats just me, i still want a foil of this, but with flavour text it would be much better.

I give up, this is the best timetwister effect they could have printed, so **** the reserve list I guess.
Well, at least when one opens this, he/she can say with confidence that "I got Diminishing Returns with my Eternal Masters Booster/Box/Case/Experience."
Like usual, they start out awesome with 10% of the set full of value....followed by 90% of the set worthless crap. I'm fearing another Modern Masters 2015

A very occasional 1-of wishboard target in Legacy too, iirc.

"What'd you get out of your $10 pack?"
"Uh, Diminishing Returns."
"Oh. I guess you really did get diminishing returns: it's worth $0.50."
Beautiful art, though!

Reserved List
An enigma as vexing as life itself.
Memory Jar is on the reserved list. They were able to reprint it in FTV Relics before the premium loophole got closed.
This is incredibly sad.
Because we know more will come....

But I will cry as I get 3 of these, one of which will be foil.
Feel free to tell me yours!
Absolute wasted slot but god damn... I love this card just to see what everyone exiled for a simple change of hand.
Not "powerful", and cramming itself in my limited bus of enternal masters dreams...but I like it!
Re-read it. Hate it. Only I exile. Fml. I hate you wizards.

To enable sweet storm decks in a draft format intended to reflect the concept of Eternal formats?
