Last Minute Study
U
Sorcery
Draw a card. Then, if you have ten or less card in your library, draw an additional card.
This is another old Checker card. I'm really skeptical on making a spell that draws two for one, but I'm thinking that it's situational enough and come up so infrequently that it's okay. I made it a sorcery to curb the cost a bit, as I didn't want it to cost 1U unless it absolutely has to. A card that only draw one 90% of the time for 1U is lame. So, is it okay?

There would be absolutely nothing wrong with making this an instant. I like the flavour, but in truth, the card is kind of anemic in anything except a combo deck that already draws a lot of cards. Weak is okay, though, since it's interesting.

I love it, though I think it coudl be strengthened by making it instant and changing 10 to 15. I could see this in a deck sort of like the old Balance-Digger decks that ran off Thoughtlash. Today we use Traumatize but it's the same idea. Also note how this gains a lot of power in limited where decks are 40 cards, not 60.

Is this interesting enough to continue tweaking? Or should I just let it die?

I like it, but theres really not much else you can do to it. This would get played in doomsday by the way.
Why not just start the clock?

I like it...  Oh and in doomsday it wouldn't get played (not in vintage that is), we already have ancestral recall...And in the off chance that's removed we can use a plethora of other spells (brainstorm, gush -wich is even better-, sphere or any combination off the above)... Would upping it to 20 make it to powerfull or just on the edge? (especially for limited, if you up it to 20 make sure to make it uncommon) |

I think this card should be neither scrapped nor modified. I like it just the way it is.

Good idea. Wizards needs to make more 1 cost draw spells with additional abilities. I like it as an instant and with the 15 card clause. Good job.

It should be fifteen or fewer, not fifteen or less, because you're talking about something that can be counted (cards, in this case).
Because you're using "last-minute" as an adjective, it should be hyphenated.
