System says it's not legal in modern. Submitting a fix now, thought it was hilarious.
Well why the hell did I open that can of worms?!
I apologize for my transgression.

Very fair card. Not over powered or oppressive at all.

I really hope it doesn't get banned, I love it in burn.

I have seen Burn and Delver decks resolve multiple Treasure Cruises and still lose (against me no less). I'm pretty sure it's actually not that oppressive in Modern, or at least as oppressive as everyone thinks it is, it's certainly infinitely better in the better format (Legacy).

I'm not trying to make a cruise flame thread. I just found that cruise isn't modern/legacy legal on the database, thought that was funny.

Hey, I heard there used to be this card called Ancestral Vision. Like Ancestral Recall, except you couldn't cast it early in the game. Supposedly it enabled too many powerful blue decks to exist in the format, so it got banned. But Wizards can't make another mistake like that, and especially not at a lower rarity. What if it could be used in Pauper?

Actually Ancestral Vision never saw any modern play. It's been banned since the format's inception. (This is IIRC, I could be wrong but pretty sure I'm not.)

To be honest, anyone who doesn't think the card is insane in modern, legacy in vintage is a very bad player.

Ancestral Vision is actually on my short list of cards to be unbanned. It's a cute card, but I'm not sure it'd make as big of an impact in Modern as people expect. It was great in Legacy decks like Shardless BUG (which is now defunct) or RUG Cascade because you could Cascade into it, but Modern's two Cascade decks (post Bloodbraid Elf banning) are Living End and Restore Balance which cascade to win, not for value. Would people play it? Sure. Over Treasure Cruise or Dig Through Time? Probably not. I mean, it can't even be flashed back for value.

I already submitted fixed for Treasure Cruise a few days ago so it may just be the website not updating it. :3

A portent for the future perhaps?
