Now THIS is Synergy. you flicker this with thassa, and you've got yourself Scry 2: I see everything coming from a mile away. But yeah, this is definitly going to make mono blue devotion more of a Draw style with Jace. Dammit, i had just finished my video on why Wizards is trying to keep blue devotion to stay bad. Welp, thats an hour of my life wasted

Not scry, and if you flicker it with Thassa you see three, not two
How many recent sets is this where blue gets an alternate wincon? I've asked this before, but when did this be come part of blue's piece of the pie?
Ever since they stopped making good blue finishers like AEtherling.
Great point that you and others have made. I agree. So, what is the last great blue finisher prior to the shift to blue alt wincons?
I think the last time we saw blue with a strong on-identity beater to win was probably Torrential Gearhulk I'd even argue it was more of a big blue win-con than Morphling ever was because those abilities really aren't all that blue.
Were you playing back then? There was a time when Morphling was arguably the most powerful creature printed. Torrential Gearhulk (and several others) are more powerful but none has ever had the impact on the game the way Morphling did.
I am aware this isn't scry. and you obviously didn't get my joke. This is a ramped up version of scry, so i said Scry 2. As in Scry 2.0. not scry 2 cards

I have been playing since Fallen Empires. I do remember it being incredibly good. My argument was not that Morphing isn't good. It's very good but other than the fact that it's good and blue and now iconic because it was good and blue it doesn't feel uniquely blue. It's really just a good Flowstone card so could have been red quite easily. Similar arguments could be made for the other 3 colors. They gave it to blue because blue needed it, not because it belonged there. The Gearhulk on the other hand has a distinctly blue feel to it.
