Once Upon a Time, Instant, designed by Matt Stewart first released in September 2019 in the set Throne of Eldraine and was printed exactly in 7 different ways. It see play in 1 format: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 1.65.
Once Upon a Time would be beneficial in a deck that aims to ramp up quickly and find key creatures or lands early in the game, such as a green ramp or aggro deck. While it provides card selection and potential free casting, there are better cards like Rampant Growth or Explore that offer more consistent ramp or card advantage. However, Once Upon a Time could still see play in certain deck archetypes for its unique ability to potentially be cast for free at the beginning of the game.
Rules
10/04/2019
