Glamerdye, Instant, designed by Ralph Horsley first released in Jul, 2008 in the set Eventide.
Glamerdye would be beneficial in a control or disruption deck that aims to manipulate opponents' spells or permanents by altering their colors. While it offers a unique and potentially powerful effect, there are better options like Vedalken Plotter or Sleight of Mind that provide more versatility and impact. Due to its situational nature, Glamerdye may not see widespread play in competitive Magic: the Gathering decks, but could be a fun and unexpected inclusion in casual or themed decks.

Casting a card by using its retrace ability works just like casting any other spell, with two exceptions: You’re casting it from your graveyard rather than your hand, and you must discard a land card in addition to any other costs.

Glamerdye affects each instance of the chosen word in the text box of the spell or permanent, as long as it’s being used as a color word. Glamerdye won’t change such words in card names, such as White Knight. It also won’t change mana symbols.
08/01/08
Glamerdye changes only words actually printed on the spell or permanent (if it’s a card), words that are part of the spell or permanent’s original characteristics as stated by the effect that created it (if it’s a token or a copy of a spell), or words that were granted to the spell or permanent as part of a copy effect. It won’t change words that are granted to the spell or permanent by any other effects. For example, if an Aura grants a creature protection from blue, you can change that to protection from red by targeting the Aura, but not by targeting the creature. Glamerdye also can’t change what color was chosen for a permanent (such as Painter’s Servant) as it entered the battlefield.

Glamerdye’s effect has no duration. It will last until the game ends or the affected spell or permanent leaves the relevant zone, with the following exception: If Glamerdye affects an artifact, creature, enchantment, or planeswalker spell, it will also affect the permanent that spell becomes when it resolves.

When a retrace card you cast from your graveyard resolves, fails to resolve, or is countered, it’s put back into your graveyard. You may use the retrace ability to cast it again.
