@ people wondering why Prodigal Pyromancer is rated lower:
Cards translated to other colors are better or worse depending on how rare their effect is in that color. Cheap damaging effects are easy to come by in red, whereas they're much rarer in blue. However, I do think that this card is rated too highly for its power level, there's definitely a nostalgia bias going on here. Not that I mind though, Tim deserves it for the mark he's left on the game :).

All those people commenting on how bad the art is are obviously blind.
Pure. Genius.

@Shadows_Vengeance: The flavour text on the card:
Occasionally, members of the Institute of Arcane Study acquire a taste for worldly pleasures. Seldom do they have trouble finding employment.

Because of "Tim the Enchanter" from Monty Python's Holy Grail.
Search that on YouTube, you'll understand.

What does it say about Magic that one of the most iconic blue cards would never be reprinted in today's color pie? IT SAYS IT'S FRICKIN' AWESOME, that's what.

I always thought "Prodigal".
As in, "Child Prodigy".

Whenever I see this guy's art, I can't help but stare at the zit on his right cheek. Then, my eyes migrate up to his bizzare hat, and down to his beard... *shudder*
