signpost for Azorius

That is a nice ability, though it might be cooler to make it a 4 drop that just has the first part w/o the clause

Why does this mention instant spells? They inherently can be cast as though they had flash. They are the reference point for flash, right there in the reminder text.

I think I made a really similar card recently without the additional cost. Sure, some sorceries can be annoying, but you already pay forward some mana by playing a gold-multicolor 2/2 for three.

sorry that was a mistake haha

You really shouldnt' have to pay the additional {2}, I mean this is like a slightly weaker, Raff Capashen, Ship's Mage

yea, but at uncommon it would be kind a nuts. see Vedalken Orrery and Hypersonic dragon both rare, both expensive, because casting stuff w/ flash is strong and hard to balance. Might lower it to {1} tho.

Raff is newer and has a much better ability, and a good rarity

This would be a much nicer signpost if it removed the cost, and made itself cost {2}{w}{u}

i guess you are right. This effect is safer at 4 mana.

Definitely is. Having this at 3 mana limits what it could be doing for just 1 more. I hope this becomes useful in this set, I expect to see sorceries!

and wurms said "let there be sorceries!" cringes
