Haunting Voyage

Sorcery4 generic manaBlack manaBlack mana

Mass reanimation usually pays for its power with either a random selection or a graveyard you can't fully control; the foretell clause here restructures that bargain into a two-turn commitment. Cast it raw for six mana and you get a double-return, roughly the reach of any midrange recursion spell. Foretell it a turn early, though, and the payoff mutates: the "up to two" becomes "all," and the sorcery reads less like a value play and more like a tribal payoff waiting for a full graveyard of one creature type. That naming requirement is the discipline that keeps the effect honest; a mixed graveyard returns nothing beyond the type you choose, so the foretold ceiling only exists for decks that commit to a shared creature type in the bin. The design cleverly hides its own tell: the exiled card sits face down for two mana, telegraphing that a swing is coming without revealing what, which turns the reload turn into its own bluffing window. It's a reanimator spell that asks you to build toward it rather than draw into it, rewarding a graveyard stacked deliberately with Zombies, Elves, or whatever type you've been feeding the yard, and punishing the pile-of-good-creatures approach that most reanimation strategies default to. The result is a spell that behaves like a modest two-card return until the foretell math turns it into a board in one motion.
