Gravecycle? Interesting.

Heh, it's Reminisce :) Which, to be fair, I designed while entirely unaware that Ken Nagle had also designed the same mechanic in GDS1, calling it Holistic as a nod to Holistic Wisdom. It's clearly a tempting design space :)

...Hmm, except you just say "Exile this card". On an instant, it's not at all clear where that's meant to be activated from: the hand, or the graveyard? Probably not the stack, but even that's a possibility.

Speaking of the GDS2, isn't Evolve, as on Hunting Therapsid, also from the GDS2?

@Alex- Wow. I didn't realize this mechanic was so widespread. I was just looking for a new way to twist cycling. Although, I like my name better :-)

@L2i0n0k7 - That's the point; it's in the header. Although, I've been doing a lot of offline drafting, and this set is going to change a bit, so it may lose Evolve.

Ah, so you do mean this to be activated from the hand? OK, that clarifies that.

Yeah, I just realized that today. I always forget to look at the set headers. Sorry. :)
