Reclaim the Requiem
Macabre Waltz is a compact tool for midgame recovery and graveyard economy. The sorcery returns up to two creature cards from your graveyard to your hand and then forces you to discard, which converts raw recursion into selection. Play it to refill options after a board wipe or to set up a reanimation or sacrifice line while trimming away a less useful card from hand.
In Ravnica the card reads like a pragmatic statement of intent. Use Macabre Waltz to build inevitability by choosing which creatures to retrieve and which to lose for value. The effect pairs well with hand refill, flashback strategies, and discard synergies where the cost becomes an advantage. The flavor fits the guilds of the city where necromancy is choreography and every return matters.
