Wait... Fury Storm is going to be totally broken in Mizzex decks.
Once you have cast your commander, this thing becomes the flashback version of Increasing Vengeance... that you can reuse with snapcaster mage, past from flames, and so on.
If Mizzex has died and been recast at least one time, it becomes the original Increasing Vengeance + its flashback ability for half of the cost... and still allows you to recast it, return it to your hand, etc.
That commander storm cycle is interesting... I wonder if the rest also copies something, like black copying a creature from a graveyard and white copying an enchantment, green copying a creature.
And also, would like to Fury Storm that. Or better yet, Fury Storm any of the other Storms.
These are all very reasonable cards, with a nifty commander to back them up.
The CommanderStorm cards make replaying your Commander beneficial as well, which is fantastic against those decks that simply use them for their color identity and some small, ancillary benefit. Nice design here.

I wish "commander storm" didn't have the "from the command zone clause." I understand why they did it, memory issues, but Fury Storm would be so goddamn good in Squee, the Immortal without it lmao.
WAIT! Does the flavor text on this imply that Windgrace didn't die!? (if I remember correctly his status was hotly contented since they wrote it weird)
With today's spoilers so far this looks like it's shaping up to be just a Jund counters-matters deck. They're going to include Kresh the Bloodbraided in the deck, or he probably should have just been the commander to begin with.
Windgrace feels... obnoxious. Not because he's breakable or anything, but because the advantage in mana production he'll be capable of will put you miles ahead of the table.
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.
On the one hand I'm sad about the phrasing on the CommanderStorms. On the other hand that's probably the point to prevent Squee decks from doing stupid things.
Cause while it is a very narrow case 'for each time your commander was cast' instead of 'for each time your commander was cast from the command zone' could get very stupid in the handful of decks where commanders cast from non-command zone places.

Looks that way. I'm not sure what he was doing during the Dominaria Story, but it would be interesting to see him appear in Ravnica or something similar.

Also, got to love that kill spell.

Yeah, I feel like Windgrace's Judgment will be a staple in decks that run those colors just because of how flexible it is.
Not only is is a good card, but that art is really reminiscent of what art was like during his initial appearance.

100% true. I might put planeswalker's fury in the windgrace deck. It's not even that horrible with all the spare mana you'll be having.

If PW reprints are on the table, Nissa, Voice of Zendikar is highly likely for this deck. Retreat to Kazandu is also highly likely. Ooh, and Fertilid! And Realm Seekers! If land sac is a thing, or heck, if they have a bunch of fetches and other saccable lands, Mazirek, Kraul Death Priest and Ramunap Excavator would be good.

And Fury Storm is going into my Mizzix deck so hard.
And Windgrace's Judgment is good as an Instant, but I'm not sure it will be replacing Maelstrom Pulse.
Reprint Stasis!
Control needs more love.
