Why is this card good?
Faithless Looting is a premier graveyard enabler, and that's the whole point — this isn't card advantage, it's card selection and self-mill.
The math matters: you draw two, discard two, so you're card-neutral but filtering toward what you want while intentionally dumping fuel into your graveyard. Flashback lets you do it again, meaning two looting effects from one card. That double-dip is why it's better here than most rummaging spells.
Who wants it:
- Reanimator decks pitching fatties (Krark/Sakashima, Jund value, any deck with Reanimate/Animate Dead) to graveyard.
- Aristocrats and graveyard-recursion shells that love things in the bin.
- Spellslinger/storm decks that want to discard reusable instants/sorceries and rebuy them.
When NOT to play it: Decks that need raw card advantage, not selection — Faithless Looting nets you zero cards, so it's dead weight in fair midrange or token go-wide builds without graveyard payoffs. If your graveyard isn't an asset, skip it. It's a synergy piece, not a generic include.
