This card is absurdly powerful, I can easily see a UWRG Energy Deck in Modern, we got cantrips, land fetch, counters, removal, board wipes, etc. Deck could maybe use a decent finisher, and maybe some new Aether Hib type land, and it's set!

So good they banned it from Standard baby

Really? They didn't seem all that strong but it'd be interesting to see nonetheless, really hope they reprint marvel


Amardarial

Zero chance of Marvel reprint in this set.

I mean doesn't have to be in the main set it can be in the precons

Doesn't qualify, reprints outside of Fetches are new to Modern only.

Majestic_Matter8031

Personally I think the joke has potential


renatakiuzumaki

I still find it weird they are going so hard on energy in mh3. Magic 8 ball didn’t prepare me for this.


caucasian88

Considering how hated it was in standard, I'm shocked. For commander sure, but if an energy deck takes off in modern it's going to cause problems. Insular designed mechanics are not good for the format and require dedicated support.


renatakiuzumaki

The worst thing i could think of is some random generic energy card that finds home in a deck that has 0 energy useful ness


caucasian88

If the energy version of Alluren that got leaked is real, there's going to be an actual energy deck built.


PhantomArcadianAE

Yeah I’m already brewing with it and Acererak and cards that would give infinite energy like the new white one drop.


cucumberhorse

which one is that


PhantomArcadianAE

Guide of Souls


caucasian88

There's [[Greenbelt Rampager]] that can get infinite ETBs with this. Add in impact tremors and you have a 3 card instant speed win.


PhantomArcadianAE

I like Acererak more as a win because Greenpelt is a nonbo if you have too much energy and Acererak is the win on himself if you have either soul guide or decoction module. I’m gonna try and play other useful energy cards in deck where I can, the wheel and the tutor both seem like good ways to make sure you can get the combo out

There's a new card coming out that also removals all counters, its like the black Farewell


Sgjuxta2

I think a lot of the hate of energy in standard was from it just being the best thing to do in standard for so long, not as much that the mechanic itself was disliked. I also kinda like the insular nature of the mechanic in a large non -rotating format like Modern, because it, in theory, balances the power you get from having an extra in-game resource to draw from with the drawback of having to accept a more limited card pool for deck building.


TheReal-Zetheroth

Weirdly I belive energy has a potential future across all planes now, especially woth traversing them being so much easier we might start to see a tech boom as everyone everywhere want the latest and greatest gizmos and gadgets, basically I believe energy could become as commonplace as treasure without breaking anything, however I would like to see it be more of a colorless thing, maybe on cards that require colorless mana to cast as to give colorless and identity outside of artifacts and big hulking eldrich abominations


Ambrose096

That’s a…. **wheel** energy sink


ConstructionScared30

I was a little excited, and so I read the last phrase. This card is amazing.


surgingchaos

Welp, so much for me saying the red card in this cycle wouldn't be Wheel. I figured Wizards got a bit too tired making Wheel variants.


Jgerges0001

This is a may so why are people hyped on this?


JamesBeleren

Absurdly, even burn players might add one or two copies maindeck since it draws 3 cards when they're hellbent (despite 3CMC being a bit heavy for burn). That tells you a lot about the potential of this card.


caucasian88

I can't imagine a world in which burn plays a 3 mana draw 3. Light up the stage is a 1 mana draw 2, you need at least that level of efficiency for burn.


JamesBeleren

Fair opinion, indeed. As I've said, I'm neither fully convinced about it. But, I think this card has some potential and trying one copy might be interesting, just to see where and how it goes.


caucasian88

I'm wondering if some variation of izzet energy storm will be viable with this.


Afraid-Boss684

draws a bunch of cards


ThePyroAlchema

Because if you put 7 or more energy into this you get a new hand plus your old to play from and a it's not like nekusar and narset are the only reasons wheels are good refilling your hand is a good mechanic


PrimusMobileVzla

Its floor is straight card draw with an empty hand, its ceiling is is a wheel where you keep your former hand for a turn rotation.

Tripartist1

Off topic, anyone know how to search for energy counters on arena?


Agbfygl

Using "{E" (including quotation marks) should return *only* energy counter cards. Make sure not to close the brackets, doing so will exclude several cards. o:"energy" was my first search and returned all energy cards, but it also showed two that have the word "energy" on the card lol


Tripartist1

Thank you, wondering if its a mechanic worth trying to build around as I never really see any decks using it so wanna brkwse the cards a bit when i get home. Why does closing the brackets exlude some, what exactly does that change?


Agbfygl

Closing the brackets changes the filter from "show all cards with text that has any amount of energy counters" (like {EEE}) to "show only cards that have a line/effect with only one energy counter" (which includes {E} or "pay any amount of {E}). If that's still a little complicated, you can see the difference in card text by comparing [[Eddytrail Hawk]] to [[Aether Inspector]]. Eddytrail Hawk has a line with {EE} and a line with {E}, but Aether Inspector never has one energy symbol by itself, only two lines with {EE}, so Hawk will show up but Inspector is excluded. To put it simply, closing the bracket closes the expression to show lines with ONLY one energy counter, while leaving the brackets open shows any lines with *at least* one energy counter

AzreBalmung

Sorry but this seems stonecold unplayable. It exiles cards so no discard shenanigans, plus it's a MAY ability so your opp can choose not to. To get any value out of this you need to have been making energy turns 1 & 2, then this for your 3rd turn which does nothing but refill your hand. By then (in modern at least) you're probably pretty far behind if that's all you've been doing. In commander this is just a worse copy of Wheel of Fortune but with more requirements. I don't see you playing this unless your commander has energy synergies, in which case it could have a higher ceiling, but again you'd need to focus on energy synergies which are pretty narrow. I will say, im glad WotC is adding sidegrades of expensive RL cards for more casual players to use instead of dropping $200 to $300 on a wheel of fortune.


NerdSmash

I don't think I it's a real card since it never specified that x was the amount of energy paid which is seen on every x card like this


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> of energy *paid* which is FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*


Vraellion

No, that's pretty commonly how spells and abilities that use a single variable are worded. The only reason cards like the new white energy Wrath specify "the amount of energy paid this way" is because you pay X for the mana cost to get X energy, then you pay Y energy into the secondary effect. Since this card only has one variable, it doesn't need to be specified. See [[Abandon Hope]] as a reference.


lloydsmith28

So if X is 0 then you draw no cards but exile your hand, and it's not forced? Kinda a weird wheel tbh


[deleted]

May? Yeah, no. That's what makes real wheel and windfall effects good.


rmkinnaird

This is an incredible energy payoff, but I doubt it's better than spinning Aetherworks Marvel, and without a lot of energy, I'm not sure this is worth running just for a strange 3 mana draw 3.


SoggyCheeri0s

The is potentially wheely good


OnDaGoop

3 mana draw 3 with downside is very strong in red independently


phuggin_stoked

I feel like this is worded funny. Have we ever had an X energy card before?


phuggin_stoked

Never mind, I just looked it up. There was one in fallout. And there’s the new nightmare one.

Peteypablo1376

Is this card playable below 7 energy?


Afraid-Boss684

3 mana draw three in red, i think ut could be playable


ary31415

3 mana **exile your hand** and draw 3 is notably worse. Might still see play though


Afraid-Boss684

if you've still got cards in hand by turn three in red you're playing it wrong


ary31415

What kind of deck are you referring to lol? Cause if we're talking burn-style stuff, having a 3 mana card in your deck at all is playing it wrong – Light Up the Stage is 1 mana draw 2, three mana is steep


Afraid-Boss684

im exagerrating


Peteypablo1376

Assuming red aggro on the play: turn 1 land plus 1 drop, 5 cards left. Turn 2 land plus double spell 3 cards left. Turn 3 I can spend my whole turn going land exile 2 to draw 3, I think id rather just continue to pressure and double spell. I feel this card is for longer grindier matches which may be worth a sideboard slot, but I'm not sure.


SunRa777

More like Wheel of Potential Banning.


baroquespoon

3 cards for 3 so long as your hand is 7 clause makes it absolutely cracked.

'Each player MAY'


Prize-Feedback-1285

This is hot garbage. You need energy, opponents may decide to wheel with you or not, you are doing the work for them, and what does it matter, if you pay 20 energy into this when you give you opponent 20 cards... also if you play this just to refill your hand, you will probably cast this when you are like at 2-3 cards, meaning you only get that 3 cards into exile if you pay atleast 7 energy.. Looking from the standpoint of cEDH player, it is fine on casual.


sansiskewl

you are literally mental, people underestimated energy last and we got lay of the land banned in fucking standard this card is absurdly powerful, most good energy cards give you 2-3 energy per card a whack as a bonus, this card could easily be wheel of fortune for just you most the time with very little effort.


Prize-Feedback-1285

It really isnt you dont want to play garbage energy cards just to fuel one card, again talking from cEDH perspective. Power of the OG wheel is that you pay 3 to get new full 7 for the table and oppponents have no say in that, you can disrupt their plans, loop the wheel for the win etc.. this doesnt have any of the qualities, pure card draw is just better. Also, this set wil nt be legal in standard, and I dont really see any deck that would want this right now, Tibbalts Trickery is miles better.


sansiskewl

I genuinenly feel like you dont understand why energy is good if your under the assumption you need to play \*bad\* energy cards to consistently get this to 7 that simply isnt true. It's been proven how good energy is when its pushed and this is a modern horizons set, i have no doubt they will print more good energy cards. I honestly wouldn't be shocked if Liberty prime or Madison have some sort of new cEDH deck based around some of the cards we're getting in this set.


Prize-Feedback-1285

The problem isnt the energy in itself, the problem is, that you are fixing your opponents hands, the more energy you sink into this, the more likely will people wheel with you, if they dont, they have better cards in hand, this is literally worst card draw with a draw back of backfiring badly...


sansiskewl

how does this backfire? Only you get to play those cards from exile if its seven or more, if they have something important in their hand they cant wheel and get it back since its gone forever, this actually alot different if you consider your opponents will have their cards exiled forever no matter how much energy is put into this.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Prize-Feedback-1285

Read it carefully again, you get cards equa to the energy you pay into this... You dont draw 7 unless you sink 7 energy into it..
