Apocalypse - a Complete Review (split)

Fire/Ice (U) 1R/1U
Instant/Instant
Fire - Fire deals 2 damage divided as you choose among any number of target creatures and/or players.
Ice - Tap target permanent. Draw a card.

==> FUN: 4
Fire is strong and Ice can be useful in the right circumstances. You can always burn Ice for a card if you don't have any red mana. I never thought I'd ever seriously suggest burning ice...

---
Illusion/Reality (U) U/2G
Instant/Instant
Illusion - Target spell or permanent becomes the color of your choice until end of turn.
Reality - Destroy target artifact.

==> FUN: 3
Both effects are too situational. Because the color change only lasts until end of turn, it doesn't even work in a Reap-lace deck.

---
Life/Death (U) G/1B
Sorcery/Sorcery
Life - Until end of turn, all lands you control are 1/1 creatures that are still lands.
Death - Return target creature card from your graveyard to play. You lose life equal to its converted mana cost.

==> FUN: 5
I like Reanimate enough that one extra mana doesn't worry me. Life has the possibility of being very sneaky. Cast it after a Death Pit Offering to give your opponent a nice scare. Or cast it to boost a spell like Collective Unconscious. With an Ashnod's Altar and a Fecundity in play it can even jump-start a combo deck. The possibilities are endless.

---
Night/Day (U) B/2W
Instant/Instant
Night - Target creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn.
Day - Creatures target player controls gets +1/+1 until end of turn.

==> FUN: 2
White creature pumpers are generally not that useful and Day is no exception. Three mana can get a +1/+1 for all your creatures permanently, so why settle for temporary?

---
Order/Chaos (U) 3W/2R
Instant/Instant
Order - Remove target attacking creature from the game.
Chaos - Creatures can't block this turn.

==> FUN: 3
It looks like a strong card in limited, but it's not all that special otherwise.
