Changed "target player's library" to "target opponent's library"; never meant to be a good card, but turned out to be excellent common card-filtering.

Hmm, really? Darksteel Pendant was okay, but wasn't that great.

Yeah, it may just be the circumstances of the set being much slower than something like Mirrodin, and the importance of hitting cheap spells to maximize the effects of Melody and Rhythm. I don't know. I'm also just doing Common playtests at the moment, so the introduction of more powerful effects may result in reverting to the earlier form.

Heh. I don't know what the card was like before the edit, but I was going to point out that "Fateseal 1" every turn on a {1} artifact was probably too cheap. I'd point to Wand of Denial, but I admit that that is a very old card, and can't be relied upon for modern casting cost evaluation. I do know, however, that if you play this on turn one, then two more on turn 2, that your opponent should lose that game, never drawing anything but land, or dead spells. Probably shouldn't be common at the very least.

Forgot to change the cost. This is supposed to be intentionally bad.

Reminds me of Crystal Ball, except fateseal rather than scry.
