i guess it's a good thing that this card got banned,i mean, remember the thopter foundry with sword of the meek combo, tap 5 land , get 5 1/1 flying creatures , gain 5 life AND have target opponent lose 5 life, it's game over.

Well guys, you don't HAVE to make them lose 1 life. See? Not broken at all...

@ Th3_Dark_On3
because this card is incredibly more exploitable then the jitte in so many ways also legendary status is what keeps the jitte from being banned..
the jitte cant just end games they way this card has or made them so rediculously one sided as this card did for a time until it's banning the jitte is annoying and troublesom and in the right deck DEVASTATING but not on the same level as this guy was/is the jitte almost always needs a creature to equip to if it's goign to be effective in anyway and it's susceptable to a lage block of artifact removal, ability countering, equipment stealing, that was available during that time on top of that you needed the creature to deal combat dmg if you were'nt getting charge counters on it through other means. like a Core Tapper
where this guy hits the board for a single B mana needs no equiping is not targetable by a huge block of removal that cant hit black creatures his ability is static affects "all" graveyards in the game d... (see all)

My most successful early pick for a sleeper hit. Normally cards I look at and think 'this will be huge' end up as tier-2 roleplayers or casual & limited stars at most, but this one ended up banned. So not actually that successful at all, now I come to think of it.

This plus Shatterstorm wrecks an artifact deck

This isn't quite as Top Down as M10, but I see it.
Anybody else look at this guy and think of the Millenium Items from Yu-Gi-Oh? Yeah. Cursed Artifacts that do something when they go to the Shadow Realm. Or in this case, the Graveyard. Mind you, the creative team almost certainly didn't think of it like that, but since it just happens to fit...
>:)
By the way: There is no reason for the From the Vault Series to exist if this guy doesn't eventually make it. Mark my words.
