Was trying to figure out how to make a similar spell to this one work in Homelands Restored. You know, what with this clearly being a Blue-Black spell, but should theoretically be cheaper than Diabolic Edict.

I stumbled upon the 'must have a Swamp and an Island' thing and thought that was a good way to pull together multicolor cards that only cost one mana. But not in Homelands Restored. Would have shipped this to Cards with no Home, but it makes a lot of sense in New Mirrodin, what with all the 'tangled mana' issues of this set.

So I'm just tossing the idea here for when I get back to the set later. Probably wouldn't run five modal spells, though. Or maybe I would in the set's expansion? I just know that "you must control a Plains and a Forest" would be far easier to digest on a 2/3 for {g/w}.
