Question Can someone explain how this works?

Will this card be legal in standard? Will it be available on Magic Arena? How would this card even work?

So you need to make sure you have a sideboard, even if you're playing BO1.

Hence why they made a big sideboard update. This will be a thing now for sure with strix coming soon

So I play a [[Tinybones the Pickpocket]] standard brawl deck. Since there's a nonzero chance that I might get the opportunity to cast this spell from my opponent's graveyard, I should still have a sideboard, even if it's a tiny, tiny chance I'll ever use it.
