Gibber.

what?

Every player draws a card, 2 cards, 3 cards, 4 cards...
And then they draw another card in your normal draw phase.

And then you're probably running Howling Mine and cantrips, and that's more cards for everyone.

It's just scary in its scope for making multiplayer games very ridiculous very quickly.

Thanks.

Mm. But for one more mana, you could just play Mind Unbound. So, yes, ridiculous. But probably fair.

I'd say compared to Mind Unbound the drawback is a little harsh. Except you probably adapt to the drawback and use it as a win-condition. And at least Gift of Knowledge doesn't mill you out.

Oh sure, I have no problem with it existing. Cost seems fine; though it might be more fun if it could come into play a bit sooner, it's certainly can't be much cheaper. And as a political card, it's great.

I just have to say "Wow, this is bonkers." a lot. This could easily be a signature mythic.

And I would certainly love to see the deck that uses this to mill out everyone in multiplayer.

I like this cycle. I also don't like this cycle. It's a weird situation to be in.

Mostly, I find it odd that a blue enchantment would discourage you from putting any other cards that draw cards in your deck, since you could accidentally let your opponent gain bonus cards with some poor timing. The white enchantment discourages you from playing life gain, for the same reason. Etc., etc.. And there's no real reason why Gift of Knowledge couldn't just say "Cumulative upkeep - Each player draws a card." You know... short of some really wild Johnny decks.

But I'm also one of those wild Johnnys, so here I am.

They're all meant to encourage you to break the symmetry. The white one pairs nicely with Tainted Remedy, this one with Nekusar, etc. If you're playing them like that, then it's worth running more cards that also have the same effect.

True enough. Inner Johhny approves. But inner Melvin is intensifying.
