    Painter's Scarecrow/Glittering wish

    If I name red can I wish for any non red card in my board, with the crow in play?

    I don't think so:

    Painter's Servant
    Cost: 2 Mana
    Card Type: Artifact Creature - Scarecrow
    P/T: 1/3
    Rules Text (Oracle): As Painter's Servant comes into play, choose a color.
    All cards that aren't in play, spells, and permanents are the chosen color in addition to their other colors.
    It doesn't specifically mention cards outside the game (like the wishes do), but then again, it should affect cards in the removed-from-game zone. I'm not sure if that's the same thing as cards in a sideboard, though.

    Of course, if they Swords your dude, then you play Painter's Servant, you should be able to wish it out of the RFG zone.

    In short, can we get a second opinion?

    "Removed from game" is still part of the game, but sideboards are not. Painter will affect RFG cards, but not sideboard cards.
    “It's possible. But it involves... {checks archives} Nature's Revolt, Opalescence, two Unstable Shapeshifters (one of which started as a Doppelganger), a Tide, an animated land, a creature with Fading, a Silver Wyvern, some way to get a creature into play in response to stuff, some way to get a land into play in response to stuff (a different land from the animated land), and one heck of a Rube Goldberg timing diagram.

    Nice, maybe WOTC will do an "RFG Zone Matters" theme eventually

    "Removed from the game" is one of the worst misnomers in Magic.

    It's important to note, though, that it will only find cards that have another color. If you name Red, it won't find Artifacts in the RFG zone. Or Red cards.

    It's true. They should probably have called it 'removed from play' or something, but it's not really a big issue if you know the rules.

    So Blessing disrupts this combo, but does not cause a draw.
    Could you just activate a Tormod's Crypt while the trigger is on the stack to remove everything just milled (including the Blessings) from the game?

    I think you want a separate thread, but yes, that works as I understand the situation (context is king).
