Gilded Lotus now has a reason to be played. Gogo Grixis control.

Better in formats like Commander where "big mana" is more common, but still not a bad card.

The biggest "F YOU" card in the game now. And I didn't think ANYTHING could beat Blightning for that honor.

I splashed this into my Golgari deck at the prerelease. One match, I made someone discard Rakdos, Lord of Riots. In a different match, I used it to kill a player who was about to kill me with him.
Rakdos seems to be his own worst enemy.

I can see this card being played, but aggro wise Blightning is still better.

Rakdos: So you like to Crush Minds, planeswalker? Here. Let me SHOW YOU HOW IT'S DONE!"

I don't understand how anyone can complain about a Blightning cranked up to 11. Kinda wish it wasn't Mythic, but oh well.
The only real problem is ramping enough early game to make this thing really effective. Don't wanna drop this when they don't have a hand, after all. You want to get your money's worth.

I think this spell is really good, and a true bomb in Limited.
The thing with Discard was that without Megrim or Liliana's Caress, you couldn't really win with it. Now you can.

Man, this card is incredible. They tap out for Jace, Architect of Thought and you trash him and their hand.

When I saw this, Sphinx's Revelation, and Epic Experiment, I thought there was going to be a cycle of instant/sorcery guild mythics with {X}. Needless to say, I was disappointed. This was the card that excited me the most.
Also, though, Blightning is almost this for {X} as {3}. This would cost {2} more. And Blightning is a common. And this is a mythic.
