Diabolic Tutor is bad, but being able to wish for sideboard silver bullets is a huge deal. It might still just be too expensive, but we've never had an unconditional wish at this cost before without it costing a billion life. Shocked this is at 4 mana, feels very possible for this to be modern and standard-relevant.
I am very excited for this card!

It's covered by Rule #13: "Abilities which refer to other cards owned outside the game (Wishes, Spawnsire, Research, Ring of Ma'ruf) do not function in Commander without prior agreement on their scope from the playgroup."

Except for the ah... "billion life" thing, my thoughts exactly. I never really thought I'd see WotC sweeten the pot to make 4cmc tutors worthwhile unless the meta was pure garbage. It'll never replace the 2 and 1 cmc tutors in the metas that support it, but it's nice to think they're making the effort at this level.
Unfortunately, I can't think of any format other than Modern and Standard this will ever be relevant. Still, nice gesture.
Also, isn't this the first wish that doesn't exile on resolution? Cool!
The self-exile on wishes was reasonable as you could just "replace" the card you wish for so you more easily notice after the game to put them back.

4 mana tutors are questionable at best, its super slow and in older formats, its a "maybe", as its difficult enough to justify spending 4 mana to get your answer, which translates to 2 turns after you have 4 mana , thats not easy in Modern.
i'll be running it in any monoblack edh deck, but not really anywhere else. its not terrible by any stretch, and helps get back your combo pieces that get exiled, i'm just not a fan of the casting cost and once you start mixing in other colors the from outside the game portion gets kinda lackluster (speaking from an edh perspective)

Remember that unless your team greenlights it, this is just a Diabolic Tutor in EDH. Wishboards don't exist in EDH without playgroup consent.

So, anyone who wanted to know how the heck will Tezzeret take something so big as the Immortal Sun away...now we know.
Let this great clan rest in peace (2001-2011)
Is that being Planar Bridge'd?
My Peasant Cube - CubeCobra
It sure is.
So for this card, it can only tutor for your sideboard cards, right? I also wish it costed 3 mana, since we have a few tutor cards already.
I don't care about Bolas any more, he blew his load already
Yes, he's stealing the Immortal Sun... or something.
Bolas is the one who sent Vraska to Ixalan. It was bound to pull him in some way or another.
Finally a good white villain quote: "So, do I ever re-evaluate my life choices? Never, because I know what I'm doing is a righteous cause."

Not sure why they've gone here but 4 mana for the exact card you need seems fine.
