Bygone Marvels: Graveyard Recall with a Twist
Bygone Marvels gives you a focused way to rebuild a board plan from the graveyard. Cast it for two green mana and, if you have eight or more permanents in your yard when it resolves, it becomes a triple threat by copying itself twice. Each copy can target a different permanent which makes this card efficient in mid to late game draws or dredge style decks that aim to refill a hand and reuse battlefield pieces.
As a practical play this is a one card toolbox reset. You return a single permanent to hand and then exile the card so it does not loop. It pairs cleanly with recursion engines that put permanents into the graveyard quickly and with strategies that want to reuse enter the battlefield effects. Experienced players will value the timing and sequencing since copying a sorcery can create multiple targets and interactions with exile or replacement effects on the stack.
