CardShark Content - Beatdown Bedford Crenshaw (10/25/2005)

I have already reviewed the one guild with blue in RCoG, so I might as well review blue now instead of saving until for last as I normally do. So, indigo…err, in we go.

Belltower Sphinx

Belltower Sphinx
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 5 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Sphinx Rarity: U Number: 38 Artist: Jim Nelson Power: 2 Toughness: 5 Text: Flying Whenever a source deals damage to Belltower Sphinx, that source’s controller puts that many cards from the top of his or her library into his or her graveyard.

Limited: C+ Constructed: C Overall: B-
Flying on this creature is actually a curse, as this + Lure

Lure
	Set: Revised Edition Cost: 3 Color: Green Type: Enchant Creature Rarity: U Artist: Anson Maddocks Text: All creatures able to block enchanted creature do so.

would have been awesome. It makes a decent blocker in Limited, but the Flying ability hurts its Constructed value.

Cerulean Sphinx

Cerulean Sphinx
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 6 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Sphinx Rarity: R Number: 39 Artist: Jim Murray Power: 5 Toughness: 5 Text: Flying U: Cerulean Sphinx’s owner shuffles it into his or her library.

Limited: B+ Constructed: B- Overall: B
A Mahamoti that can protect itself, and only lose a single point of unneeded toughness? Looks good, but only if mono-blue comes back; not likely with this block.

Compulsive Research

Compulsive Research
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 3 Color: Blue Type: Sorcery Rarity: C Number: 40 Artist: Michael Sutfin Text: Target player draws three cards. Then that player discards two cards unless he or she discards a land card.

Limited: C+ Constructed: C+ Overall: C+
This block’s Thirst

Thirst
	Set: Mirage Cost: 3 Color: Blue Type: Enchant Creature Rarity: C Artist: Roger Raupp Text: When Thirst comes into play, tap enchanted creature.During your upkeep, pay U or bury Thirst.Enchanted creature does not untap during its controller's untap phase.

IGZvciBLbm93bGVkZ2U=, which makes this card pretty good in the late game, save that it’s burdened by being a sorcery.

Convolute

Convolute
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 3 Color: Blue Type: Instant Rarity: C Number: 41 Artist: Dany Orizio Text: Counter target spell unless its controller pays 4.

Limited: C+ Constructed: C- Overall: C-
That’s right; Mana Leak

Mana Leak
	Set: Stronghold Cost: 2 Color: Blue Type: Instant Rarity: C Number: 36 Artist: Christopher Rush Text: Counter target spell unless its caster pays an additional 3.

is too good. I guess this will rotate into 10th.

Copy Enchantment

Copy Enchantment
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 3 Color: Blue Type: Enchantment Rarity: R Number: 42 Artist: Joel Thomas Text: As Copy Enchantment comes into play, you may choose an enchantment in play. If you do, Copy Enchantment comes into play as a copy of that enchantment.

Limited: C- Constructed: B- Overall: B
Sideboard bait, which might be good against the Legendary Shrines or having your own
Galvanizing Arc.

Dizzy Spell

Dizzy Spell
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 1 Color: Blue Type: Instant Rarity: C Number: 43 Artist: Christopher Moeller Text: Target creature gets -3/-0 until end of turn. Transmute 1UU (1UU, Discard this card: Search your library for a card with the same converted mana cost as this card, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library. Play only as a sorcery.)

Limited: C- Constructed: C- Overall: C-
Well, at least you can tutor for a Merfolk of the Pearl Trident

Merfolk of the Pearl Trident
	Set: Revised Edition Cost: 1 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Merfolk Rarity: C Artist: Jeff A. Menges Power: 1 Toughness: 1

with it. :D

Drake Familiar

Drake Familiar
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 2 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Drake Rarity: C Number: 44 Artist: Darrell Riche Power: 2 Toughness: 1 Text: Flying When Drake Familiar comes into play, sacrifice it unless you return an enchantment in play to its owner’s hand.

Limited: C- Constructed: B- Overall: B-
This is not all bad, as if you have Pacifism

Pacifism
	Set: Classic Sixth Edition Cost: 2 Color: White Type: Enchant Creature Rarity: C Number: 33 Artist: Robert Bliss Text: Enchanted creature can't attack or block.

in play, you can bounce it back onto a bigger threat. Sadly, the best CIP Auras to use in conjunction of this card, Galvanic Arc

Galvanic Arc
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 3 Color: Red Type: Enchantment Sub Type: Aura Rarity: C Number: 126 Artist: Michael Sutfin Text: Enchant creature When Galvanic Arc comes into play, it deals 3 damage to target creature or player. Enchanted creature has first strike.

and Fists of Ironwood

Fists of Ironwood
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 2 Color: Green Type: Enchantment Sub Type: Aura Rarity: C Number: 164 Artist: Glen Angus Text: Enchant creature When Fists of Ironwood comes into play, put two 1/1 green Saproling creature tokens into play. Enchanted creature has trample.

, won’t be backed by guild until a few months from now. This card’s value should rise. In Limited, it’s sideboard bait unless you have 3-4 of the CIP Auras.

Dream Leash

Dream Leash
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 5 Color: Blue Type: Enchantment Sub Type: Aura Rarity: R Number: 45 Artist: Alex Horley-Orlandelli Text: Enchant permanent You may play Dream Leash only on a tapped permanent. You control enchanted permanent.

Limited: B- Constructed: C Overall: C+
Might be too costly nowadays, but it’s a great way to deal with opposing fatties, save that they have already attacked you ONCE with it. Thus, a slightly better than average card.

Drift of Phantasms

Drift of Phantasms

Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 3 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Spirit Rarity: C Number: 46 Artist: Michael Phillippi Power: 0 Toughness: 5 Text: Defender (This creature can’t attack.) Flying Transmute 1UU (1UU, Discard this card: Search your library for a card with the same converted mana cost as this card, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library.

I guess this is supposed to make up for them removing Wall of Air

Wall of Air
	Set: Revised Edition Cost: 3 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Wall Rarity: U Artist: Richard Thomas Power: 1 Toughness: 5 Text: Flying

from the base set. Huh!

Ethereal Usher

Ethereal Usher

Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 6 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Spirit Rarity: U Number: 47 Artist: Mark A. Nelson Power: 2 Toughness: 3 Text: U, T: Target creature is unblockable this turn.

That’s right; Dwarven Warriors

Dwarven Warriors
	Set: Revised Edition Cost: 3 Color: Red Type: Creature Sub Type: Dwarves Rarity: C Artist: Douglas Shuler Power: 1 Toughness: 1 Text: T: Make a creature of power no greater than 2 unblockable until end of turn. Other cards may later be used to increase target creature's power beyond 2.

was so broken they had to make it more overcosted and make it blue. Whatever!

Eye of the Storm

Eye of the Storm
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 7 Color: Blue Type: Enchantment Rarity: R Number: 48 Artist: Hideaki Takamura Text: Whenever a player plays an instant or sorcery card, remove it from the game. Then that player copies each instant or sorcery card removed from the game with Eye of the Storm. For each copy, the player may play the copy without paying its mana cost.

Limited: C- Constructed: B Overall: B-
OK, you Johnny-Spikes; this is the card you have been dying for. Have fun, but not too much fun; that way, the rest of us can have fun too.

Flight

Flight

Flight

Flight

was always a marginal card, and adding three mana to gain two cards just isn’t enough. It combos with Drake Familiar

Drake Familiar
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 2 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Drake Rarity: C Number: 44 Artist: Darrell Riche Power: 2 Toughness: 1 Text: Flying When Drake Familiar comes into play, sacrifice it unless you return an enchantment in play to its owner’s hand.

, but there are three CIP Auras that work even better with it.

Flow of Ideas

Flow of Ideas
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 6 Color: Blue Type: Sorcery Rarity: U Number: 50 Artist: Dan Scott Text: Draw a card for each Island you control.

Limited: C- Constructed: C Overall: C-
Considering the land fixing needed, plus the Sorcery status, and I just don’t see this being played. Still, it may be useful if mono-blue Wisdom decks become a rage, which I don’t see happening.

Followed Footsteps

Followed Footsteps
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 5 Color: Blue Type: Enchantment Sub Type: Aura Rarity: R Number: 51 Artist: Glen Angus Text: Enchant creature At the beginning of your upkeep, put a token into play that’s a copy of enchanted creature.

Limited: B Constructed: B- Overall: B
Awesome in Limited, as you can keep copying the biggest fattie in play over and over. But I think this will be too slow in Limited.

Grayscaled Gharial

Grayscaled Gharial
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 1 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Crocodile Rarity: C Number: 52 Artist: Chris Dien Power: 1 Toughness: 1 Text: Islandwalk

Oh, now this card is such a CROC. *Rimshot*

Grozoth

Grozoth

Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 9 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Leviathan Rarity: R Number: 53 Artist: Cyril Van Der Haegen Power: 9 Toughness: 9 Text: Defender (This creature can’t attack.) When Grozoth comes into play, you may search your library for any number of cards that have converted mana cost 9, reveal them, and put them into your hand. If you do, shuffle your library. 4: Grozoth loses defender until end of turn. Transmute 1UU

Limited: D+ Constructed: C- Overall: C
Hey, I’ve been missing big, fatty, almost useless blue critters, so it’s kind of nice to see this card. However, I don’t see it being used. I wish Polar Kraken

Polar Kraken
	Set: Ice Age Cost: 11 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Kraken Rarity: R Artist: Mark Tedin Power: 11 Toughness: 11 Text: TrampleCumulative Upkeep: Sacrifice a land.Comes into play tapped.

would come back.

Halcyon Glaze

Halcyon Glaze
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 3 Color: Blue Type: Enchantment Rarity: U Number: 54 Artist: John Avon Text: Whenever you play a creature spell, Halcyon Glaze becomes a 4/4 Illusion creature with flying until end of turn. It’s still an enchantment.

Limited: B- Constructed: B Overall: B+
I can definitely see this card being used in a blue Oni Vanguard deck, as Ornithopter

Ornithopter
	Set: Revised Edition Cost: 0 Color: Colorless Type: Artifact Creature Rarity: U Artist: Amy Weber Power: 0 Toughness: 2 Text: Flying

returns can ensure a swift 4/4 flyer that means quick win for you over your enemy. Should also see constructed play once the other blue guilds see print.

Hunted Phantasm

Hunted Phantasm
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 3 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Spirit Rarity: R Number: 55 Artist: Justin Sweet Power: 4 Toughness: 6 Text: Hunted Phantasm is unblockable. When Hunted Phantasm comes into play, put five 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens into play under target opponent’s control.

Limited: C+ Constructed: C+ Overall: B-
I want to like the card, but giving your opponent 5 Goblins is dangerous, especially if your opponent has ways to sacrifice them for various effects. Cards like Caltrops

Caltrops
	Set: Urza's Destiny Cost: 3 Color: Colorless Type: Artifact Rarity: U Number: 129 Artist: Jeff Laubenstein Text: Whenever a creature attacks, Caltrops deals 1 damage to it.

could help to neutralize the Goblins, allowing you a nice finishing creature.

Induce Paranoia

Induce Paranoia
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 4 Color: Blue Type: Instant Rarity: C Number: 56 Artist: Jim Murray Text: Counter target spell. If B was spent to play Induce Paranoia, that spell’s controller puts the top X cards of his or her library into his or her graveyard, where X is the spell’s converted mana cost.

Limited: C+ Constructed: B- Overall: B
I had a great deal of fun with this card at the prerelease. If you are playing Dimir in Limited, or a Dimir Mill deck, you will definitely wish to use this card. But if you don’t plan to win by milling, then don’t include this in your deck.

Lore Broker

Lore Broker
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 2 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Human Rogue Rarity: U Number: 57 Artist: Alan Pollack Power: 1 Toughness: 2 Text: T: Each player draws a card, then discards a card.

Limited: C Constructed: B- Overall: B-
This is a decent backup creature in a Dimir deck, especially one with discard. Solid, but makes me miss merfolk that had a similar ability.

Mark of Eviction

Mark of Eviction
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 1 Color: Blue Type: Enchantment Sub Type: Aura Rarity: U Number: 58 Artist: Tsutomu Kawade Text: Enchant creature At the beginning of your upkeep, return enchanted creature and all Auras attached to that creature to their owners’ hands.

Limited: B- Constructed: B- Overall: B
This will be uber-annoying to any opponent of blue’s. A Dimir deck with discarding will eat this card up.

Mnemonic Nexus

Mnemonic Nexus
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 4 Color: Blue Type: Instant Rarity: U Number: 59 Artist: Stephen Tappin Text: Each player shuffles his or her graveyard into his or her library.

Limited: D+ Constructed: C Overall: C
An anti-Dimir card in one of the Dimir colors??? It’s an uncommon sideboard card in Limited; nothing more.

Muddle the Mixture

Muddle the Mixture
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 2 Color: Blue Type: Instant Rarity: C Number: 60 Artist: Luca Zontini Text: Counter target instant or sorcery spell. Transmute 1UU (1UU, Discard this card: Search your library for a card with the same converted mana cost as this card, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library. Play only as a sorcery.)

Limited: C- Constructed: B- Overall: B-
It’s a strong counter, and it has transmute. Other than the fact that it’s not very splashable, it is a strong card.

Peel from Reality

Peel from Reality
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 2 Color: Blue Type: Instant Rarity: C Number: 61 Artist: Puddnhead Text: Return target creature you control and target creature you don’t control to their owners’ hands.

A reason to include Nekrataal

Nekrataal
	Set: Visions Cost: 4 Color: Black Type: Creature Sub Type: Nekrataal Rarity: U Artist: Adrian Smith Power: 2 Toughness: 1 Text: First strike When Nekrataal comes into play, bury target nonartifact, nonblack creature.

in a Dimir deck, this card is. Other than that, people are better off with Boomerang

Boomerang
	Set: Fifth Edition Cost: 2 Color: Blue Type: Instant Rarity: C Artist: Alan Rabinowitz Text: Return target permanent to owner's hand.

will see more play than this.

Quickchange

Limited: D Constructed: C Overall: B-
I always liked the Laces, so I am glad to see this card. But it would have been a better fit in Invasion, not Ravnica, where domain mattered.

Remand

Remand
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 2 Color: Blue Type: Instant Rarity: U Number: 63 Artist: Mark A. Nelson Text: Counter target spell. If that spell is countered this way, put it into its owner’s hand instead of into that player's graveyard. Draw a card.

Limited: C- Constructed: B- Overall: B-
This is another card to encourage you to play discard in your Dimir deck. If you do play permanent discard, then you have no reason not to play this card.

Snapping Drake

Spawnbroker

Spawnbroker
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 3 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Human Wizard Rarity: R Number: 65 Artist: Wayne England Power: 1 Toughness: 1 Text: When Spawnbroker comes into play, you may exchange control of target creature you control and target creature with power less than or equal to that creature’s power an opponent controls.

Limited: C+ Constructed: C Overall: C
I keep trying to find a good use for this card, and I can’t, unless you are trading a Spark Elemental

Spark Elemental
	Set: Fifth Dawn Cost: 1 Color: Red Sub Type: Elemental Rarity: C Number: 79 Artist: John Avon Power: 3 Toughness: 1 Text: Trample. At the end of turn, sacrifice Spark Elemental.

Stasis

Stasis

Decent in Limited, but there are far better options in Constructed.

Surveilling Sprite

Surveilling Sprite
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 2 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Faerie Rogue Rarity: C Number: 67 Artist: Terese Nielsen Power: 1 Toughness: 1 Text: Flying When Surveilling Sprite is put into a graveyard from play, you may draw a card.

Limited: B- Constructed: C+ Overall: B-
I’m happy to see fairies back, although they should have remained green. A decent card in Limited, and a decent early chumpblocker.

Tattered Drake

Tattered Drake
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 5 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Zombie Drake Rarity: C Number: 68 Artist: Glenn Fabry Power: 2 Toughness: 2 Text: Flying B: Regenerate Tattered Drake.

Limited: C- Constructed: C- Overall: C-
I didn’t bother playing this at the prerelease. Unless your opponent has uber-strong flyers, and lots of them, I’d keep this in a Limited sideboard and nowhere else.

Telling Time

Telling Time
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 2 Color: Blue Type: Instant Rarity: U Number: 69 Artist: Scott M. Fischer Text: Look at the top three cards of your library. Put one of those cards into your hand, one on top of your library, and one on the bottom of your library.

Limited: C+ Constructed: B- Overall: B-
After blue got neutered in 9th, this is probably the best small filter blue has now. Thus, it’s playable, but blue players will still cry for better.

Terraformer

Terraformer
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 3 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Human Wizard Rarity: C Number: 70 Artist: Luca Zontini Power: 2 Toughness: 2 Text: 1: Choose a basic land type. The land type of each land you control becomes that type until end of turn.

Limited: C Constructed: C Overall: C
Hey, look, it’s anti-islandwalk tech. Blech!

Tidewater Minion

Tidewater Minion
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 5 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Elemental Rarity: C Number: 71 Artist: Tomas Giorello Power: 4 Toughness: 4 Text: Defender (This creature can’t attack.) 4: Tidewater Minion loses defender until end of turn. T: Untap target permanent.

It’s a bad Air Elemental

Air Elemental
	Set: Revised Edition Cost: 5 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Elemental Rarity: U Artist: Richard Thomas Power: 4 Toughness: 4 Text: Flying

that doesn’t even flying. If you want untapping, you get a cheaper card to do it.

Tunnel

Limited: C+ Constructed: C- Overall: C
A little too costly and too random to play, except in the 2nd or 3rd game of a Limited game.

Vedalken Dismisser

Vedalken Dismisser
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 6 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Vedalken Wizard Rarity: C Number: 73 Artist: Dan Scott Power: 2 Toughness: 2 Text: When Vedalken Dismisser comes into play, put target creature on top of its owner’s library.

Limited: B- Constructed: C- Overall: C
These were awesome in my Dimir Limited deck, where I can bounce an annoying creature and then mill it away. But at 6cc it’s stuck as a Dimir Limited card.

Vedalken Entrancer

Vedalken Entrancer
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 4 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Vedalken Wizard Rarity: C Number: 74 Artist: Dan Scott Power: 1 Toughness: 4 Text: U, T: Target player puts the top two cards of his or her library into his or her graveyard.

Millstone
	Set: Revised Edition Cost: 2 Color: Colorless Type: Artifact Rarity: R Artist: Kaja Foglio Text: 2, T: Take the top two cards from target player's library and put them in target player's graveyard.

that can block! A very good card in Dimir Limited, and should see play in constructed mill decks as well.

Wizened Snitches

Wizened Snitches
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 4 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Faerie Rogue Rarity: U Number: 75 Artist: Greg Staples Power: 1 Toughness: 3 Text: Flying Players play with the top card of their libraries revealed.

Limited: C Constructed: C- Overall: C-
It’s good with Deceivers, but Deceivers aren’t that good. Thus, a mediocre card.

Zephyr Spirit

Zephyr Spirit
	Set: Ravnica City of Guilds Cost: 6 Color: Blue Type: Creature Sub Type: Spirit Rarity: C Number: 76 Artist: Tomas Giorello Power: 0 Toughness: 6 Text: When Zephyr Spirit blocks, return it to its owner’s hand.

Limited: D+ Constructed: C Overall: C+
Yep, it looks pretty bad. However, it does combo well with Cloudhoof Kirin

Cloudhoof Kirin
	Set: Saviors of Kamigawa Cost: 5 Color: Blue Type: Legendary Creature Sub Type: Kirin Spirit Rarity: R Power: 4 Toughness: 4 Text: Flying Whenever you play a Spirit or Arcane spell, you may put the top X cards of target player's library into his or her graveyard, where X is that spell's converted mana cost.

. A Johnny could have lots of fun with this combo if he also has Sapphire Medallion

Sapphire Medallion
	Set: Tempest Cost: 2 Color: Colorless Type: Artifact Rarity: R Artist: Sue Ellen Brown Text: Your blue spells cost 1 less to play.

s.

In summary, blue has finally matured somewhat from a snot-nosed kid, although it still has ways to go. R&D has actually made milling interesting, and there are a few fun cards in blue for once. Thus, my rating for Blue in this set…
