Interesting... combat damage being needed makes me a little sad, but if you can jam your guys through, your golden. Very cool... keyword is nice... and card is solid.

EDIT: Mechanic is so awesome(: I've got some decisions to make come pre-release day, and Dimir is looking awesome(:

That's absolutely crazy. Cipher has massive potential.

Here's hoping for Dimir Infiltrator reprint.

I'm impressed. They made a great tempo ability, that is also asynergistic with Snapcaster Mage, to avoid a resurgence of Delver. Not bad.

So Haunt is too complex but this is fine? WTF MaRo?

I am.....impressed? I think? Windfall with the ability for repetition seems kind of amazing. This seems like some serious EDH potential.

Spellbinder keyworded is cool, but is it more UB than any other color combination?

It seems close to Cascade in power level. Seems very, very good.

The card itself works with the mill subtheme, and Cipher fits with Dimir's inherit unblockable nature.

I don't know if this is worth the rare.
