Spells you cast cost 1 less to cast for each card with the same name as that spell in your graveyard.
I think Storm or Control could really use this, turning Desperate Ritual into a red Dark Ritual, casting Mana Leak for one mana, seems good. also makes card draw and board wipes cheaper.
Thoughts?

Storm already has Pyromancer Ascension, which does almost the same thing (make more mana) and more (double draws, dodge counterspells by making copies).
Control doesn't need it - if your first Wrath wipes the board, it's highly unlikely that you both 1) need a second and 2) need a 1-mana reduction on that.
The Riddlesmith variant of Sunrise Combo uses it to best effect, because it's a permanent-based storm combo deck (whereas UR Storm is an instant/sorcery based one, so cards like Past in Flames and Pyromancer Ascension fit better).
i also think the storm list is too tight to garner throwing in 4 weaker PA's.
As for a control list? I'm not sure, it's a pretty bad non-bo with Snapcaster. I think not playing this would be the same reason you play Mana Leak over Rune Snag.

It's actually not a nonbo, if you have a mana leak in the graveyard you can cast snapcaster and flash it back for one blue mana.
That being said, this card is a pretty obvious do-nothing that should not be played.

To post on this forum you must...
1. Have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
2. Stubbornly argue for at least 1 page of posts.
3. Regurgitate things you read on Starcitygames or Channelfireball.
4. Hate all netdeckers
5. Claim your 2nd place FNM deck broke the format and Delver is not even that good.
6. Tell everybody that MBC is coming back every time a new black card is released.

9/25/2006: The spell being cast doesn't reduce its own cost, even if you're casting it from a graveyard. At the time the cost is reduced, the spell is on the stack.
