Mechanics

The major theme of this set is stack matters. Every color can interact with the stack in some way.

Minor themes and mechanics (tentative):
alternative casting cost (play traps face-down, detonate)
amount of mana paid
split second
can't be countered (blessed)
3 spell types: AEther, Trap, Arcane
AEther are colorless spells
Trap can be played faced down and detonated (like morph) (mainly blue, black and red)
Arcane coalesce is reverse splice (mainly green, white and black)
Morph returns
? all instants and sorceries have subtype or tribal
major tribes: rogue (trap), wizard (arcane), cleric (arcane), warrior (trap), spirit (aether)

split second (As long as this spell is on the stack, players can't cast spells or activate abilities that aren't mana abilities.)

Put a creature card from a graveyard onto the field under your control. If you control a Cleric, you gain life equal to that creature card's converted mana cost.

lol, yeah. Infuse is an interesting twist to splice. One point of sadness is that the keyword mill only works for effects that mill a set number of cards, but cards like Consuming Aberration aren't receiving that template update

I wonder what this card was when that 22-may comment was made? Because it's nothing like that now.

Fair enough; I can see it as a mockery.

As a real spell... {x}{g} to fetch a creature with (toughness/power/cmc/in-the-top-cards-of-deck) X or less, then dump counters on it? Still gives you plenty of sneaky cheaty things you can do on non-square critters, while not being quite as obviously horribly broken.

But if you're using tribal, why are you using arcane spells instead of tribal wizard spells?

Um. It's a tribal artifact, not a creature

Gatherer is only changed when a set is released.

@amuseum I see...

Well there's still all these.

Probably should be something like "You may pay 1 life rather than {1} when casting colorless spells. Spend only 1 life per spell cast this way." Or something. I don't think it's quite right as is.
