Darn Tibalt isn't RB. Not bad for himself and will see play at least in casual devil decks.

On time warp: he returns to when they weren’t even born(flavor text)
On tibalt: he is exacly a counter to the matchs that mono red is really bad in this standard: life gain. Makes it possible to fight vs all the revitalize, etc
How long till Tibalt goes the way of the Ferocidon?
probably never. ferocidon being too much to handle was a product of the standard environments small card pool and was heavily influenced by the second clause punishing creatures ETB.

This Tibalt is okay, as an uncommon that is about what we should expect. I like the wrath, it makes sense that Azorius would get another wrath in a ravnica block.
It'll be funny if this uncommon Tibalt ends up being worth more than the mythic Tibalt.
LOL. I had the same thought.
I actually think this is really powerful sideboard option that might push Mono-Red to tier 1. It is powerful enough that I could see one or two in the maindeck even since a lot of decks have a least some incidental lifegain. Plus their is a chance mono-red gets a really good proliferate card.
Overall I see a lot of potential for this card. At worst it is a good sideboard option.
Judith: I want to marry that man and play sadomasochistic games with him! Exava: Get in line, sister! I've got some funtoys that are sure to please him! Lyzolda: His little Devils are so cute! Ooh, and he likes knives! Sounds like my kind of man! Rakdos: Um, ladies? Big horny demon, right here...dammit, don't start swooning over some skinny-ass pretty boy just because he's wearing a nice coat and has a Devil fetish!

Tibalt has pretty much the exact loyalty ability I was expecting. I was hoping for his first ability to be something more like a damage-triggered rummage effect, but at least he makes Devil tokens.
MTGS Wikia Article about "New World Order"
Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
I was hoping for a two mana Tibalt, but a sweet uncommon Tibalt makes me happy, and I like that he's mono-red. That hipster hair-swoop is going to look so dated.
Why does Time Wipe not exile? Given the flavor, it should.

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
God damn that time wipe
Edit: Tibalt, Rampaging Ferocidigator
"You can tell how dumb someone is by how they use Mary Sue"
He returns them to the time when they were mere corpses I guess.
Nice board wipe for azorius builds I can use that in my Esper flick/blink deck

Its a bad Wrath for decks with almost no creatures, but its pretty strong with lots of stupid creatures to re-use abilities from.
Might even be a thing with Eternal Witness and with Snapcaster Mage its also re-useable.
Could see this be more relevant than it looks at first glance.

New Tibalt- very similar to a banned card, seems pushed
and the board wipe is actually neat
probably never. ferocidon being too much to handle was a product of the standard environments small card pool and was heavily influenced by the second clause punishing creatures ETB.
