1. (Ravnica Allegiance): You can't keep a good esper control deck down... Or Wilderness Reclamation... or Gates...
2. (War of the Spark): Guys, I know what we need! We need a cycle of really idiotic flavor text victory cards! Jace's Triumph...
3. (War of the Spark): Lets make the format with control have even more control!
Although Infect wouldn't be reprinted in Standard, and this isn't standard, I don't see WOTC reprinting it here in a limited format, because that could open the door for other cards with infect and there is only so much design space with so many cards from each set. I agree he needs a reprint though. I may be wrong too and eating my words later on.
The roller coaster ride continues. Mikokoro eff yeah! then this steaming cow patty hellz no.

Cracking packs has always been a gamble. They're embracing that aspect here. Maybe you'll get a foil Jace! Maybe you'll pay $10 for Blue Sun's Zenith! Who knows!
This card already is dirt cheap, has multiple printings, and isn't great in draft. Why WotC? Why?
Perhaps Lab Man is in, so you can Doomsday/Lab Man/Blus Sun's?
But yes, could have skipped this.

Paying 4 bucks and getting less than a dollar in return is one thing. Paying 10 bucks and getting less than a dollar is another.
You usually don't see a lot of people playing the 10 dollar slots, but you see a lot at the quarter slots. This is a Masters set, drafting be damned. Wizards doesn't get a pass on this weaksauce.

It is a neat card in draft and limited. A nice win condition. At least it has more use than bident of thassa.

Wasn’t it on a event deck?
Green or black was the right one
I dunno. Probably.
