That's a pretty sweet reprint, and it might drive foil prices down as well. You might always want this with the kicker though.

Almost got me. I thought it was printed in Innistrad because it fits just right, then I realized all cards in MH1 save for basic snow lands weren't Modern legal before.
The necromancer's argument was clever and well reasoned, but Rem's response proved irrefutable.

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.

Not sure this will affect foil prices, as Invasion foils are rarer than newer foils. Those old school foils are nice looking too...
Again, am I reading too much into flavor text, or will we be seeing some super niche legends like Kristina and Rem Karolus here?
