Are there any other ways to get cards back from exile other than Riftsweeper?

Pull from Eternity is one off the top of my head

Torrent Elemental and Misthollow Griffin may be relevant too.

For reference I need to get Necromantic Selection back. I like Torrent Elemental though and might actually use it clayperce.

the second wave of eldrazi when they did ingest there were also ones which pulled from exile. could work well with something like Wrexial, the Risen Deep if that was your plan.

Oh yeah, I forgot about those, Bhaal666.

Not sure the Processors are relevant in this case, since they only work on opponents' cards, but here they are, for completenesss.

Death Wish or Burning Wish are what's able to get that back.

I think Death Wish is the only one able to get back Necromantic Selection in mono black, although it has a big down side attached to it too.

dbpunk,
Wishes don't work on Exiled cards.

Here's the relevant Gatherer text:

  • You can't acquire exiled cards because those cards are still in one of the game's zones.
  • In a sanctioned event, a card that's "outside the game" is one that's in your sideboard. In an unsanctioned event, you may choose any card from your collection.

For what you want, the only real option are Riftsweeper and Pull from Eternity. getting it back from your yard is easy enough afterwards. Riftsweeper also combos with it though. Any particular reason you want to use this card? And remember that Pull can be imprinted on an Isochron Scepter
