Your ideal sequence on turn one is land, pitch a Black card to Grief, place the incarnation's death trigger on the stack, place its discard trigger above it so it resolves first, and remove your opponent's interaction if any so the way is clear for you to target your incarnation with Ephemerate
Red(?) I'm pretty confident in saying blue and green are the two best colors in the Legacy Cube, but with so many changes to black and red, I'm not sure how the last three colors line up
Technically, ability words don't either, but they're always followed by rules text, so, for Alexander's purposes, any line with an ability word is going to count
Though rare, reusable copying effects like Cloven Casting, Bonus Round and Reiterate are massive force multipliers to the point of becoming win conditions in their own right
It is likely that we will see a counter spell soon (we play 6 of them in the sample list above), and by the time creatures become a major issue, two white sources will probably have been drawn to fire off our Wrath of God
Cryptic: For a character with such great lore, this card doesnt really seem that impressive
