Incredible. Just replaced my Hellkite Overlords and Akroma with 4 Chimney Imps in my reanimation deck. But with a mana cost of only 5, sometimes I just go ahead and play him from my hand instead of my graveyard.
The only problem is that my deck is so powerful now, no one will even bother playing against it anymore...

I actually took four Hellkite Overlords and four Progenitus' out of my "Dramatic Entrance" deck so that I can combo him with Painter's servant. When I get a Chimney Imp onto the board third or fourth turn, my opponent usually just scoops.

If I had three wishes I would wish for one chimney imp with each. I think a wish could only handle one of these monsters at a time.

True story.
So, I went to Tropes to add discussion on comments (like Laguz's) about cards (like The Imp) to the page for Asbestos-Free Cereal. Far as I know, I had the syntax all correct, the preview showed up correctly, links were working fine. Then I hit submit. The page was GONE. Empty. The source is still fine, but the page won't display.
Say what you will about its raw power, but I'm staying clear of any card capable of BREAKING TV TROPES.

Dude, this card gets me so psyched. I remember when I was opening packs from the four hundred and ninety-two boxes that I bought, checking just the first card ( if it wasn't the first card, it might of had bad luck and been misprinted... I didn't want to take any chances ). I remember, I was getting shit like artifact lands and cranial plating, throwing them out. LOL. I remember, out of all those boxes, I only got like 2. Maybe there would be a few more in there, but I wasn't taking any chances of a mishap. So I try and go trade.... this card is rare as anything. Some kid wouldn't even accept a Black Lotus for it, and I insisted. Finally, I found one, but the guy wanted me to sacrifice my son. Considering upon sight of this card I had no son anymore ( nananana go away timmy I dont love you ), I happily agreed. Now I have my playset, and god damn it I feel the rush of it every minute. Did you know, you can put Unholy Strength on this to make it 3/3???!?!?!?! That's cheese right there. T... (see all)

Steps to EPIC WIN:
Step 1: Go to Amazon.com, order Three-Wolf Moon T-Shirt
Step 2: Order Chimney Imp playset on eBay.
Step 3: Wear the shirt while ripping Imps off the top FTW.
(CAUTION: Imps + 3WM may - er - WILL attract babes)

WHY does wizards feel the need to print cards like this!!!?? As soon as it was released it was an immediate 4 of in any deck that could produce black mana, and most that couldn't. At easily over $100 a playset it makes it hard for casual players to keep up.
