===Ancestral Recall=== In ''[[Ice Age]]'' appeared <c>Brainstorm</c>. Though the caster of Brainstorm has to put two cards back on top of their library after drawing three, Brainstorm is still considered a powerful card, and has been restricted in vintage. [[Time Spiral]] gave us {{Card|Ancestral Vision|}}; a Recall with a four-turn delay, similar to that used to balance Lotus Bloom. In [[Magic 2012]], <c>Visions of Beyond</c> functions as a cantrip, but can act as an Ancestral Recall if any player's ''[[graveyard]]'' has 20 or more cards in it. In [[Worldwake]], a [[planeswalker]] named <c>Jace, the Mind Sculptor</c> was printed. His [0] ability is a Brainstorm for free. The ''[[Alliances]]'' card <c>Library of Lat-Nam</c> allows the caster's opponent to choose between the caster drawing three cards at the beginning of the next turn's upkeep (a la Ancestral Recall), or the caster searching their library for one card, and putting that card into their hand (a la <c>Demonic Tutor</c>). In ''[[Khans of Tarkir]]'', the card <c>Treasure Cruise</c> gives three cards at a much higher mana cost, but can be reduced to Ancestral Recall's cost using [[Delve]]; this led to it rapidly being banned in Modern.
