Eeenteresting. So he sets up a second graveyard for instants and sorceries, a bit like giving all your instants and sorceries flashback. But the drawback is that when there's anything in that second graveyard, you can't cast any other i/ses from your hand.

Reminds me a bit of Dralnu, Lich Lord, who had a different drawback in exchange for letting you reuse all your instants/sorceries.

I like it, I think.

Thank you, sir, for the tentative compliment. :)

So I assume the 'correct' way is to get this guy out, and on the next turn cast a bunch of spells at once, so they go on the stack and resolve forming the 'second graveyard'?

@HappenStance: Caidar, the Priority-Holder

Interesting design... if a bit wordy.

Lol @ Caidar, the Priority-Holder

Haha, yes. A good way to work around his "limitation" is to maintain priority and cast several instants.
My designs in general tend toward wordy. It's one of my more common failings.
