About Pick the Brain
Pick the Brain, Sorcery, designed by Mathias Kollros first released in Apr, 2016 in the set Shadows over Innistrad and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 3.37.
This card, Pick the Brain, would be beneficial in a control or midrange deck looking to disrupt the opponent's strategy by removing key cards from their hand and potentially from their deck as well with Delirium. While Pick the Brain can be effective in certain situations, there are better options available such as Thoughtseize or Inquisition of Kozilek for hand disruption, making it less likely to see play in competitive Magic: The Gathering decks.
Rules
04/08/16
If there is no nonland card to choose, and you have four or more card types among cards in your graveyard, you’ll search that player’s library even though you won’t be able to find any cards. That library will be shuffled.
04/08/16
In some rare cases, you can have a token or a copy of a spell in your graveyard at the moment that an object’s delirium ability counts the card types among cards in your graveyard, before that token or copy ceases to exist. Because tokens and copies of spells are not cards, even if they are copies of cards, their types will never be counted.
04/08/16
The number of card types matters, not the number of cards. For example, Wicker Witch (an artifact creature) along with Catalog (an instant) and Chaplain’s Blessing (a sorcery) will enable delirium.
