[EVE] Rekindled Flame (rumored)

[fnord]

Rekindled Flame
Sorcery (R)
Rekindled Flame does 4 damage to target creature or player.
At the beginning of your upkeep, if an opponent has no cards in hand, you may return Rekindled Flame from your graveyard to your hand.

Name is real at least. Card duznt make sense though.

If only it was cc 3. It would be about 10x better, but better than Flame Javelin. The way it stands now, its decent removal in limited, but Flame Javelin is better in constructed.

EDIT: Does it check out with the orb?

[torturedsouls]

Hmm, if WoTC wasn't so scared of instant speed discard this card could be very fun Rakdos ammunition.

[Bananahunter]

3 CC would make cause too much power creep, making many cards obsolete. 4CC is perfectly fair.

4 dmg for 4 mana is acceptable. Flame javelin sometimes gets played for 4CC when player can't get RRR. It's sor speed though. Still pretty good. Not a chase rare. Just borderline competitive.

[OdosMaker]

Name checks out. I'm guna go ahead and cry fake though. Seems fishy.

[jader]

It is a subpar burn, with it being a sorcery at 4cc. The returning ability isn't really that good either. It would depend on your opponent playing his last card during his turn. Instants really doesn't help it either. This might be a good spell against aggro than empties hands really fast or effects that make opponents discard during their turn (which I don't think are available to standard).

[Shinriko]

If this is real it will find a home in my B/R multiplayer deck for sure.

[anna.mossity]

All names check out, seems reasonable and within the overlap between red and black's nature.

[sclocke42]

Seems reasonable enough power-wise. The name fits with the number crunch, and the Orb returns 3 hits for "Rekindled" and 5 for "Flame" (the other two "Flame" hits belonging to Flame Jab). I don't see any reason to disbelieve this.

Fake? Really? Really? Four days before the prerelease, from a member who has over a thousand posts?

My B/R casual deck will love this card in multiplayer. Even better, make a pact with an "opponent" to take out a third player who's being irritating. I <3 recursive burn.

[Masamune]

Meh. The "Return it to hand" ability is just too situational to make it as reliable as you'd like it to be (in terms of making it a type 2 playable port of Hammer).

To be honest, I kind of like this card. The price is efficient for "repeatable" burn (4 damage isn't anything to sniff at for 4cc), and if you had a more efficient way of keeping their hand empty, than there are certainly worse cards to have in your arsenal.

Thank you fnord! Any others you might have?

anna.mossity All names check out, seems reasonable and within the overlap between red and black's nature.

Black? Um this is a red card in an enemy color set. In a set with persist, why would they give a card this ability on a red card?

This guy hasn't spoiled any cards that I know of, All iv found so far is him speculating on cards over and over. Seems like he made this card up based on his guessing and checking the orb results.

Edit: lol i know it seems weird to cry fake but this card makes no sense. If its real then it sucks anyways and is poorly designed.

[Tilde]

I guess it could be usable (if not particularly good) if you're keeping your opponent locked down with Cinderhaze Wretch.

I mean their nature, red's impulsiveness( and usually emptyhandedness) and black's deprevation of knowledge (AKA discard).
