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.
Never been a fan of doing nothing alone enchantments that works only in very specific and dedicated builds, which are a time walk for your opponent at turn 3 and a horrible topdeck.
Nissa, Steward of Elements is a nice abuse outlet here. Cast her for 5 and you can play her ultimate right off the bat if you want, and use her 0 to get any creature costing 6 or less...
Whoa that's pretty smexi with the new finale cycle. You can ramp into this t2 and then green finale t3 for something silly out of your deck or GY.
need a rules guru: if I have a cost reducer like goblin electromancer and cast fireball tapping 5 mana total I hit face for 10? X= 4 + r tapped, reduced by one so x =5, then doubled? Am I thinking that through correctly?

yeah that should be right. once you cast and it goes onto the stack the enchantment sees the fireball as x=5, so that is what is copied.

I wish I could get a commander with this effect tacked on, but hell, I still may make a deck designed to get this out and abuse it. Phew! What a neat card.

His activation doesn't cost X MANA, so it doesn't work. Bummer.
