This is like a land mine. You play it turns 1-3 & forget it. Sometimes the games over before it resolves (oh well, you can't win em all). But sometimes your investment matures RIGHT when needed. How many times is your hand FINALLY starting to blossom but you you only have 2-5 life at that point and need just 1 more turn but don't have enough mana for life gain AND life drain? It happens enough. This is your card and it helps.

This is one of my favorite cards. It's not a good card practically, but I love the flavor of a hero on the brink of death coming back for one last chance to save the day.

@Infernox:

suspended cards are not permanents. They are removed from the game, so hexmage wouldn't do a thing to it.

I feel like making a Sanguine Bond-Heroes Remembered Deck. Gonna need a huge mana engine.

@Piechart: Rift Elemental, Fury Charm, and Dust of Moments also work well. And, of course, Jhoira of the Ghitu would get it out quickly.

It might be decent as a standalone in EDH.

It is true that usually lifegain does not allow you to win, as it only prolongs the inevitable. Nonetheless, my best memory from my first games of Magic were hardcasting 2 of these in the same game. The deck had a few tough cards such as Akroma, Angel of Wrath that might have helped win the game if I had drawn them. Surely with the mention of Sanguine Bond and with the newer Serra Ascendant and Felidar Soverign this card has a place in casual decks more than just to prolong your defeat. But even without them, the stories can be fun.

My favorite part about this card is the name. I can't read it without getting goosebumps and slightly teary-eyed.
