About Radical Idea

Radical Idea, Instant, designed by Izzy first released in Oct, 2018 in the set Guilds of Ravnica and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.19.

The Radical Idea card would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on card draw and graveyard interaction, such as a control or tempo deck. While it provides a simple card draw effect, the jump-start ability adds versatility and value by allowing it to be cast from the graveyard, making it a good choice for decks that want to maintain card advantage and fuel their graveyard synergies. However, there are potentially better options like Chemister's Insight which offers a more significant card draw at instant speed for a slightly higher cost, making it a stronger choice in most cases. Overall, Radical Idea could see play in specific decks looking for graveyard recursion and incremental card advantage.

Rules

10/05/18

If an effect allows you to pay an alternative cost rather than a spell’s mana cost, you may pay that alternative cost when you jump-start a spell. You’ll still discard a card as an additional cost to cast it.

10/05/18

You must still follow any timing restrictions and permissions, including those based on the card’s type. For instance, you can cast a sorcery using jump-start only when you could normally cast a sorcery.
