Venser, Shaper Savant

Legendary Creature - Human Wizard 2/2, 2UU (4)
Flash (You may play this spell any time you could play an instant.)
When Venser, Shaper Savant comes into play, return target spell or permanent to its owner's hand.¹
His marvels of artifice pale in comparison to the developing machinery of his mind.
Illus. Aleksi Briclot

Gatherer Card Rulings

• 5/1/2007: If a spell is returned to its owner's hand, it's removed from the stack and thus will not resolve. The spell isn't countered; it just no longer exists.
• 5/1/2007: If a copy of a spell is returned to its owner's hand, it's moved there, then it will cease to exist as a state-based effect.
• 5/1/2007: If Venser's comes-into-play ability targets a spell played with flashback, that spell will be removed from the game instead of returning to its owner's hand.
