Exile all nonbasic permanents and all cards from all graveyards. Then, put all noncreature nonplaneswalker cards exiled this way onto the battlefield under your control. For each permanent that entered the battlefield this way, add

Add X amount of

Black doesn't get rituals anymore unless it's playing a black cost (sacrifice, discard, etc). Also, modern templates don't say mana pool anymore :/
Them: Stop trying to make aggro viable in commander, aggro's never going to be viable in commander.
Me: No.
Agreed.
Nice!

added: "can't gain control of spells and permanents you control"
"Freedom can't be countered" may be the most 'Murica thing I've read on a Magic card. :D
Haha cool :)
Cool.
The activated ability rarely comes up in practice, and people just stop casting spells once Ruric Thar hits play in my experience
I agree with both of dude's arguments.
I think James is right about making this a 4/2, though I definitely think this shouldn't be pushed to 2 damage, 1 is plenty. It does seem kind of weak to me, but considering this could trigger easily a few times per turn (maybe even several in a round), this is quite decent already. Also, against the right decks, this basically forces them to either not combo, or do as much of their combo as they can without being burned to death (which means they may likely leave themselves in Lightning Bolt range, or Shock range, too perhaps).
This should definitely not have 3 health. I would even say give it 1 health, but that's normally kept for a Spark Elemental style card. This should have low health, so it can be killed in combat, since spells can't be cast on it.
I really like this flavor by the way, and the card mechanic itself is pretty good too.
