About Fossil Find

Fossil Find, Sorcery, designed by Dave DeVries first released in May, 2008 in the set Shadowmoor. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.48.

This card, Fossil Find, would benefit decks that rely heavily on graveyard interactions, such as decks with cards that have powerful abilities when in the graveyard or decks that utilize the graveyard as a resource. While Fossil Find offers some flexibility in returning a card at random to your hand and reordering your graveyard, there are potentially better options like Regrowth or Eternal Witness that allow you to choose the specific card you want to return to your hand. Whether Fossil Find should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy within the deck, as well as the overall power level of the format it is being played in.

Rules

05/01/08

Except for the card that you return to your hand, reordering your graveyard won’t affect anything that’s currently targeting or enchanting a card in your graveyard. Whatever it is will be able to track the card it’s targeting or enchanting as your graveyard is reordered.

05/01/08

The easiest way to choose a card at random from your graveyard is to turn your graveyard face down, shuffle it, and pick a card. You’re not normally allowed to reorder your graveyard, but since this card lets you do it anyway, it’s okay to mix the cards up while you’re picking randomly.
