Precise Plans
Enchantment
When ~ enters the battlefield, exile the top 4 cards of your library face down. You may look at these cards.
Whenever you would draw a card, you may put a card exiled by ~ into your hand instead.

I feel like this card exists in some form... No?

Parallel Thoughts + Mangara's Tome

Hmm... Close-ish. It doesn't tutor like those, but its a little more friendly on drawing"

So is it fair/cool?

It's alright, your version can also remove cards that you would have drawn but didn't want to draw..

True. I see that as a minor advantage. Most blue draw 1 spells sift a bit, too. (And this doesnt even cantrip)

Parallel Thoughts can also be OK for thinning your deck, seven cards removed that you won't want to see can be handy in certain blue control decks.

Balance-wise, this seems ok.  Some playtesting and trying to break the card may indicate a better price at in some decks.

The card would be completely unplayable in regular decks if you increased the mana costs even further..

It somewhat does.

Didn't Black get something like this?

Tainted Pact ?

Reminds me of Duplicity or Search the City only more useful.

Sweet. It's close to stuff that exists, but distinct. I like that niche

Yeah, but it's hardly different from existing cards with the same mechanics + synergies..

Aww, cmon. It is quite a bit cheaper than most of the others, at least.

Yeah, but cards that are very close to existing cards often don't receive (m)any comments here..

Yeah, but that one isn't exactly "good". I can think of a few ways to abuse it, though.

Yeah, but people weren't too fond of it as I recall.

go away I like my 10-cards dig : P

It's pretty funny how this thread just won't disappear, although the mechanic of the card in the first post was already printed many times..

you jealous?
