This card is going to be fantastic in Limited, and may be a hit in Constructed too:

 

 

Izzet Chronarch was once the best common in its set, and it cost two colors. Mnemonic Wall could very much be the same thing; an 0/4 is no slouch of a blocker, and you can set up an eternal loop of blocking if there is some type of Into the Roil effect in the set. The real question is whether or not the Wall will see play in Standard. Consider it in a deck like Cruel Control, which could return literally all of its spells. Anarchist, Scrivener, Treasure Hunter, Cartographer, all have seen Constructed play, making it all the more likely Mnemonic Wall is next on the list.

 

What do you think? Is Mnemonic Wall good enough to see play in Constructed, or are Walls still too "bad" to be used in Standard? Share your thoughts in the forum link below.
