Ghoulcaller's Bell
StarsOfLorin here talking about the first card for review here on MTG Analyzer. Woo! Party hats aside, the card up for review today is from the Innistrad block is aptly named "Ghoulcaller's Bell".
So I just have recently got into some Innistrad cards and noticed a lot of cards with the flashback ability, which basically allows you to cast the spell twice, once from your hand and once again from your graveyard with the extra cost of exiling it afterward. Also the Innistrad block seems to have introduced a lot of fun "graveyard play" spells.
Anyways this card looks like it could do a lot of fun things especially if you use your graveyard as a resource, and all for a mana cost of 1? Play in a flashback deck along with Burning Vengeance and let the fun begin, or stack tough critters and use with Grimoire of the Dead. Milling potential is also here. Definitely looks like it was made for a mono-black or a black/other, but could definitely see some action in other decks too.
The artwork, like most of the Innistrad set (I would say all, but Olivia Voldaren's gender has to be confirmed first...) is amazing. The flavor text really keeps up with the mood of horror in the series and shows just how easy it is for the dead to come back to life on the plane of Innistrad.
