"Deja Vu"
Remove a reaction card in your ash heap from the game. Play this card as if it has the text, costs and requirements of the removed card.
What this card does:
It provides flexibility. Have an untapper, some intercept, or a bounce card in your ash heap? Well with one "Deja Vu" you have any of those in your hand as well.
It lets you play a "second" copy of a card. Play a Spirit's Touch, and then play "Deja Vu" with the card text of Spirit's Touch.
I think it can be a powerful card, but you really can't put a lot in a deck. It doesn't work well with things like Ashur's Tablets (which IMO is a good thing.)
You could argue that thematically this card could work for Temporis or Dementation or even Dominate (but Dominate doesn't need this!)
Independent Futurist. Contrarian (titled, X votes where X is the number of votes as the acting minion.) Target Vitals is always the better combat card.
Fun. But why do you think it´s needed? (Is it in line with the design teams current philosophy?) What decks will profit?
"My strategy? Luck is my strategy, of course."
Reminds me of Faster than Light .
I guess the card should be written as:
"[aus] This minion plays a reaction card from your ash heap. When that card would be burned, remove it from the game instead."
For balance, I think you have to choose between:
- copying a card played *during this action*
and - being able to play a card from your ash heap a second time.
But not both.
I would also make it require [AUS] with an average inferior effect such as
"[aus] Reduce a bleed against you by 1."

It gives some flexibility to the cost of some deckbuilding challenge (and sometimes it won't be useful, but that's also a tradeoff)

Maybe for you, but not for the other players.

Well, what I wanted to say is that with this card you can need less recursion and/or polyvalency so you are a bit less inclined to play ashur.
!ventrue will like this card a lot. Obedience, Deflection, eagle sight, eye of argus were the cards that springed to mind to re-use. Of course, maybe I miss the obvious.
Can you play this new card while tapped? You'll have to figure out some way to say, "This card is playable while tapped, only if the copied card is playable while tapped."

Seriously, can you stop pretending there are 9 Ashur Tablets in every deck nowadays?

What exactly is the intend of the post ? Showing you don't understand what I want to say ? Or simply being a jerk ?
Point is, ashur tablet is precious because (among other things) it help to have the good card when you need it. This card do the same thing. So, the card help make Ashur less useful - in some case you will play this instead of ashur, or with less ashur, or simply not feel like losing something by not playing them.
In the same way, Telepathic misdirection make Deflection less powerful. Psyche! make immortal grapple less powerful. Etc...
Point is that in your last few dozens of posts you are constantly bashing/comparing on Ashur Tablets. Its getting old and repetitive.
Yes, yes, we all know by now you (and Ashur) hate the card, think it's broken, gives free tournament wins and that it needs to be banned or else VTES will go down the drain.

No I don´t think this. Stop being a jerk please.

I simply don't think that, and I don't say anything like tgat. It would be like saying you believe Ashur tablet to be useless.

That is a nice card. I would like it even as a NEC version which plays cards from grave and removes both cards from grave after.
This topic still needs something about Tupdogs to be classed as a normal topic.
