About Pools of Becoming

Pools of Becoming, Plane — bolas's meditation realm, designed by Jason Chan first released in Sep, 2009 in the set Planechase Planes and was printed exactly in 2 different ways.

This card, Pools of Becoming, would benefit a deck that focuses on manipulating the top of its library, such as a deck with scry effects or ways to rearrange the order of cards. While it offers card draw potential, its randomness with the chaos ability may not always be reliable. Other cards like Brainstorm or Sensei's Divining Top may provide more consistent card advantage and manipulation, making them potentially better choices for competitive play. However, for a more casual or chaotic playstyle, Pools of Becoming could still see play for its unique and unpredictable interactions.

Rules

10/01/09

A plane card is treated as if its text box included “When you roll , put this card on the bottom of its owner’s planar deck face down, then move the top card of your planar deck off that planar deck and turn it face up.” This is called the “planeswalking ability.”

10/01/09

If one of the revealed plane cards is another Pools of Becoming, its chaos ability triggers. When it resolves, you’ll reveal three more cards from the top of your planar deck, their chaos abilities will trigger, and you’ll put them on the stack in any order on top of any remaining chaos abilities from the first Pools of Becoming’s effect.

10/01/09

The controller of a face-up plane card is the player designated as the “planar controller.” Normally, the planar controller is whoever the active player is. However, if the current planar controller would leave the game, instead the next player in turn order that wouldn’t leave the game becomes the planar controller, then the old planar controller leaves the game. The new planar controller retains that designation until they leave the game or a different player becomes the active player, whichever comes first.

10/01/09

The face-up plane card isn’t currently part of its owner’s planar deck. If the chaos ability is rolled by the owner of Pools of Becoming, Pools of Becoming is not one of the three cards that are revealed.
