Wrexial or Thief of Sanity?
Commander Deck Help forum

I have Wrexial, the Risen Deep in every EDH deck of mine that contains the colors black and blue, because it is a 5/8 for six mana and has an array of awesome abilities, but it still is very expensive, so I am contemplating replacing it with Thief of Sanity .
The thief has lower power and toughness than does Wrexial, but it also has a much lower mana cost and a far nastier ability, and I also prefer flying over landwalk, even two of them, so I feel that it would be a great replacement for that card.
What does everyone else say about this? Should I replace Wrexial, the Risen Deep with Thief of Sanity ?
I'd have to agree with Thief of Sanity to help you in the early game and potentially steal some valuable cards from your opponents.

bushido_man96, Joe_Ken_, in that case, I shall definitely make that replacement.

I'm partial to lower CMC, and a lower curve overall, so Thief of Sanity might win out here. With Wrexial, you're tied to what is already in the graveyard, and unless you run a bit of a mill strategy, it can be hard to really get what you want. I think the Thief might win out here.
