Notable Cards
- Counterbalance - Used in conjunction with cheap library manipulation such as Brainstorm and Sensei's Divining Top to counter multiple spells over the course of several turns.
- Dark Depths - When used with Vampire Hexmage this makes a 20/20 creature for very little investment and was a popular strategy in Extended before it rotated.
- Rite of Flame - A red ritual effect that gets stronger in multiples. Similar to cards like Flame Burst and Accumulated Knowledge.
- Braid of Fire - A design variation on the cumulative upkeep keyword from the original Ice Age block that attempts to turn it from a drawback into a benefit.
- Vanish Into Memory - This is the winner of You Make the Card 3.

Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or cards:
“Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“Out in Hollywood, where the streets are paved with Goldwyn, the word “sophisticate” means, very simply, “obscene.” A sophisticated story is a dirty story. Some of that meaning was wafted eastward and got itself mixed up into the present definition. So that a “sophisticate” means: one who dwells in a tower made of a DuPont substitute for ivory and holds a glass of flat champagne in one hand and an album of dirty post cards in the other.”
—Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
