Embrace the Unknown — Wager the Top Two Embrace the Unknown is a compact red sorcery that turns the top of your library into an extension of your hand. Cast it for {2}{R} to exile the top two cards and gain permission to play them until the end of your next turn. Retrace gives it repeatable reach from the graveyard by discarding a land and paying its mana cost, which fits nicely in decks that orbit card advantage and loose resource management.
In Commander play this card invites timing choices and sequencing. Use it ahead of a big turn to set up chains of value or late in a hand to find interacting spells. The extended art foil shown here emphasizes the outlaw mood of the set and the gamble at the heart of the card. Practical players will find it useful for digging without committing permanent board slots and for fueling both aggression and recovery.
