The days and nights you spent studying the skies may soon pay off. Look at Vadrik, almost effortlessly casting his magic. Soon, so will you. Let's just hope you don't end up nauseous like Graham and Beej did.
This is in a weird design space for Standard where you might end up really helping out some opponents,
but the payoff might be huge.
Probably a great card in Commander since it’ll be rare for other players to care about day/night,
and you can equip him with stuff like Runechanter’s Pike.
This could be a very potent commander. Since the spell cost reduction is tied to his power and not the number of counters on him you can get some crazy value going pretty quickly in these colors. Obviously it would be easier in URG than UR, but it’s still easy to buff this dude up and protect him from removal in UR.
This guy seems gross in EDH. Red has no shortage of one mana plus 3 power effects (heck even blue has Unstable Mutation), and just casting one Infuriate on this guy should probably let you play through your entire deck in one turn. What's super cute with this guy also is that one pump spell puts him at the magic 4 power to enable you to go infinite with any ritual (or similar effect like Frantic Search) alongside Reiterate. I very much look forward to killing tables with this guy out of nowhere once this set comes out.
I really like the alternative art. Evan Cagle is an exciting artist to see in MtG ... his art is probably only going to appear in these two sets though, since all he does is black and white stuff.
This seems like the type of commander you can have fun with exactly once - then, everyone notices how potent it is and starts killing it on the spot. Out of all the Izzet spellslinger type commanders, this might still be up there for me though.

Yeah, this guy is basically just a remix (remizzix?) of Mizzix of the Izmagnus,
and she rates pretty far down on the “friendly” scale.
Arguably scarier than Mizzix as it only takes one spell to "fully charge" Vadrik whereas if you haven't already accumulated any experience counters Mizzix can take a second to get going. In theory, you could literally just play a land and pass the first 3 turns with Vadrik before killing the table on turn 4...Mizzix is at least a little more forgiving in that regard.

Joking ever so slightly aside this is a good card that could get out of hand and will be a joy in Commander.
Day becomes night
Night becomes day.
This has got song lyric fodder written all over it.
If you can manipulate the day cycle then this can get ugly fast. How much magecraft triggers do you want to go off in a turn?
