Chimzar's Card of the Day #2 - Sage's Forethought

There was some worry about players cheating with Insightful Orator.  Now I'll let you deal with this card:


 Powerful: Yes!  Disruptable: Yes.  Printable: You be the Judge.

  1. I think the big problem with this one is time. How long does it take to sort out 20 cards? It could cause a lot of draws at timed events, especially in multiples.

  2. That is a very valid point. What about this being printed in a commander set? Could Enternal formats handle it or would restrictions/bannings insue?

  3. How is this powerful at all? Why am I not casting Divination?

  4. This card has a different function than Divination and may even be in a completely different deck. It is powerful in the sense that it does alot for its cost. If what is does is useful is a better question.

  5. This card does nothing for it's cost! The only purpose would be to rearrange your library if you've milled to 20 or less, in which case you are playing a card that literally does nothing until that point, and after you cast it you have 20 or less cards that may or may not contain what you need anymore. Powerful? No. Disruptable? It certainly disrupts the game and takes too long to resolve! Printable? HELL no.
