Here’s a reminder of the card:
You fetch the first 4 spells of your library, reduce their cost to 0. Then, each card in your hand if fully drained of mana. This spell cannot fetch other copies of itself.
Am I missing something or is this card just awful? I tried a few decks with it and it literally ruined matches for me. Anyone else have luck with this card?
I don’t have it yet but first thing that comes to mind is to use it with Approach of the Second Sun as the only other spell in the deck (or another powerful spell)
I don’t have it, but I look forward to try it with Nahiri and ‘Deploy the Gatewatch’ as only other spell. Should work as cheaper Deploy (21 Mana instead of 23) an 12 Creatures instead of 3.
Ah! Don’t have either of those but that makes much more sense! And yu get very powerful results. I guess I’ll keep winning those boosters and cross my fingers.
I got this last night and was trying various things with it… it’s not reliable, but this with Stir The Sands and From Under The Floorboards can be fun when it works.
Im using it with season’s past in my legacy Samut. Fun stuff! But hand management is important! And it’s frustrating to watch a huge cascade fill everything after it just to be drained.
Right now it’s my in my creatureless red/white ajani with approach of the second sun for the bolas node of RoGP. It’s a treat to be watch it pull 4x approaches haha
So, last week, I draw Approach of the Second Sun. And the first thing I thought was “wow, I can’t wait to try that out this we on Bolas, combined with HUF” .
I know that HUF can be sometimes unreliable. I was prepared for some “misfires”.
But man, I was not ready to see it pulls 0 spells, two or three times in a row … I thought I was going to go through Bolas much faster, but I was so wrong… I used this red/white combo deck three times on Bolas, each time the first two casts of HUF went fine, and after that it was just misfire after misfire after misfire … until the game finally decided I had suffered enough to get me a perfect cast with 4 copies of Approach to end the game.
Next timer, I’ll go back to my utterly boring creatureless Ob (faster, and much more reliable).
HUF is a pretty fun card to play around with, but please FIX IT !
Other than its bug, it’s an amazing card. Even though it isn’t supposed to fetch copies of itself, it still will and come up with nothing instead. It does need the right combo of cards. My favorite use is with Samut and green spells. Red/White Deploy/Approach combos are always great as well.
works fine for me. I use it to summon multi high casting spells. Make sure you empty your hand (exile) down to 2 other cards. i always disable the spell in hand so that I can prep to cast it. I used it with Lay Claim, 2nd Sun, Dreadwaters, Release the Gremlin. even more fun with Swarm Intelligent to cast HUF out. Your Mileage may varied.
The bug tends to happen when you’re about to end your first “Deck” and the 2nd deck hasn’t been created yet. I end up drawing 1-2 spells and that’s it. but then after that it continues to work until your current “deck” is about to run out.
I find HuF generally very strong. Especially with koth as you can cast it quite quick. Its perfect to just have those great expensive damaging spells or removals for free just sitting in your hand ready for reaction. And the combo with Approach…well lets just say Nahiri sparked something pervy in me thanks to this combo
What other card did you put in there with Seasons Past to cause the infinite loop? I run that combo myself but have never gone past a half a minute loop
