Rationale
3cmc 3/2 Minotaur Shaman that on attack recycles an instant/sorcery from the graveyard to the bottom of the library and impulse-draws the top two cards. Signature in red spellslinger and graveyard-matters shells that want to recover spent instants/sorceries and generate card advantage through attacking. Requires a stocked graveyard and an open attack to function, making it slow and conditional.
