From the Legends set, so the attack drawback seems par for the course in terms of weirdness/bizarre mechanics and abilities, strictly for flavour's sake.
This card reminds me of the days when I played mono-blue control with Tradewind Rider.

combine with gideon jura and mirrorweave. If they have four creatures they die. simple.

One of my first cards! I love that kind of art and back at the time it was good.

@Mode: I think you mean Temporal Adept. Agreed, not as good, but was a staple of denial decks early on.

Back in the day Timey kicked alot of butt, if it didn't get bolted or plowed it started ruining somebody's day fast. It was also fun to bounce something and then counter it away.
bounce himself and wrath was another common trick, only to have the Elemental come back and rule the table.

This card, in terms of art as well as abilities, is outrageously bizarre. IF IT ATTACKS YOU HAVE CAUSED A TIME PARADOX BECAUSE IT IS A 0/2 AND ATTACKING WAS NOT IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. IT DIES. TAKE FIVE FAT POINT OF DAMAGE. DO NOT PASS GO. DO NOT COLLECT 200 DOLLARS.

@Mode: Those who played between June 1994 and June 1999.
@jsttu: You mean Nettling Imp and Clone or Siren's Call.
This was awesome card in its heyday: reuseable Boomerang. Very good in Stasis-deck.

who needs a Time Elemental if you can have a Time Adept?
