A bounce spell. For the most part it's just like Unsummon, with a few differences.

  • That creature can't be recast right away.
  • If nothing else happens, that creature's owner does not lose a card draw. ie no tempo loss.
  • The card can be milled or grinded away. or shuffled, etc.

The 3rd point is the key to allow a cheap Unsummon variant (cf. Aethertow costs {3} more than Unsummon) that plays well with milling strategies.

It's very slightly better - you can unsummon during their attack; and they can't just re-cast in main2. But not unfairly so. I like this variation.

Yes, this is interesting, and I think {1}{u} is spot on.
