Oracle Text

Shuffle your library, then reveal the top card. If it's a nonland card, you may cast it without paying its mana cost. If it's a land card, you may put it onto the battlefield and return Unexpected Results to its owner's hand.

Character Background

Unexpected Results is a quintessential value-tempo gamble: for four mana, it can either “ramp” you by dropping a land and bouncing back to hand for another try, or spike your board with a free nonland spell off the top. That flexibility makes it best in midrange, combo, or high-curve Simic shells that can exploit both outcomes rather than relying on one specific hit. The card rewards deckbuilding that smooths the top of the library—effects like top manipulation, cantrips, or cards that let you stack your draw increase the odds of turning the reveal into something devastating. It also pairs well with a land-heavy build so the land-bounce mode keeps the spell alive for repeated attempts. In practice, treat it as a swingy engine card: great when your deck has a dense mix of impactful spells and lands you’re happy to replay, but less reliable in aggro lists that need immediate certainty.
