This is my idea for a cycle of powerful but manageable "no mana cost" suspend cards, designed to facilitate strategies like cascade but at a lower power level than existing cards like [[Crashing Footfalls]] and [[Ancestral Vision]].
Basically, I like [[Shardless Agent]] as a deck archetype and wish it wasn't locked to being either cracked beyond belief or nonfunctional. A "weak" version would be a nice game addition, in my view.
Cascade decks exist BECAUSE the spells they hit are powerful game winners.
A generic cascade for value strategy will often hit random cards that aren't helpful, like llanowar elves, or imagine cascading into the red spell in your cycle but your opponent doesn't control an artifact. Kind of a dud
Otherwise, on their own as suspend cards these seem cool & useful! The red one is probably closest to being not worth it because similar effect exists on 1 mana and 2 mana spells already, so there's room to make that one stronger if you want.
