Hello fellow cardsmiths, it's been awhile since we've started a thread for something other than a contest. As such, we wanted to see your cards relating to other smiths and special people in your lives.
1) combines library and graveyard into one zone 2) hides the library and graveyard from tutoring, milling, jester’s capping, tormod’s effects, reanimating 3) keeps you from losing from not drawing a card because the draw pile and discard pile are combined in the exile zone. 4) grants the possibility of re-using cards in the exile zone that are not usually available to regrow. 5) nullify “draw a card” abilities and the card draw during your draw step.
To me, that doesn’t feel like a lot for nine mana.
On the other hand it allows unlimited tutoring using any ability that allows you to regrow a card from your exile zone. You can pick anything not in your hand or on the battlefield. I am not aware of any ability like that but it certainly could come to exist. (Eldrazi processors do it, but only move cards from exile into the graveyard.)
@Scott_Anderson Yeah I was at a loss for how to price the card because it does a lot of things that aren't seen in magic, and does one thing that magic kind of doesn't want to happen, which is moving stuff from exile back into the game. It does protect you from a bunch of nonstandard stuff, and gets you back anything you own that gots swords'd or path'd. Figured it would be better to have a jank mythic than some pushed card that everyone plays. Any suggestions for an alternate price?
My suggestion is that this would already be a bulk rare until such time as exile-tutoring becomes a thing. So it doesn’t need to be prohibitively expensive CMC wise.
Just thought of a hilarious downside to that effect. Anything that puts stuff into your library kind of becomes the "new exile", since you almost have no way of getting something out of your library except for tutors. So tuck effects become more powerful.

I had a cat who would follow me everywhere.
Love the card! Just wondering, is Naya from Naya? : )
Probably a dog or bearded dragon card as well.
Technically about someone I care about.
The mechanical effects I can see:
1) combines library and graveyard into one zone
2) hides the library and graveyard from tutoring, milling, jester’s capping, tormod’s effects, reanimating
3) keeps you from losing from not drawing a card because the draw pile and discard pile are combined in the exile zone.
4) grants the possibility of re-using cards in the exile zone that are not usually available to regrow.
5) nullify “draw a card” abilities and the card draw during your draw step.

It does feel incredibly blue though.
My suggestion is 3UUU. What do you think?
EDIT: Ring of Ma’ruf of course. Sorry.
