First card since mirrodin block that was so laughably powerful that it wasn't fun to play or play against. Go die in a hole somewhere Jace, and take that terrible return to ravnica storyline with you because wow, that sucked. I'd have rather read twilight.

Don't get me wrong, this guy is powerful, but in all honesty who would even let this guy reach the point where he could use his ultimate sorcery spell. I mean its as simple as targeting him with an exile target permanent spell or ability and he's caput, moot, etc. I've taken this guy down more times than not, well at least in casual play. I don't play competitively so I can't say anything about that, but he's not so scary during casual play.

I love Jace. As control spammer he's one of my favorite in manipulating ones deck. That being said, I think Jace is somewhat balanced. His +2 is, as has been said previously , great for manipulating your opponents next 2 draws, his 0 is great at manipulating your draws, his -1 is hardly relevant unless something pops that could potentially hurt you and his -12 is reasonably priced to rarely, if ever, actually go off. You'd have to build a deck solely around getting his ultimate off to have a chance of doing that. That and your opponent would have to have no way of dealing with him.

Gotta say, people I play with said I was foolish to buy a playset of these for $120, in addition to the other playset I already had... But guess who they go to when they need him for the PTQ or GP deck... I took a gamble and it paid off for me. I would baulk at paying the prices they go for now...

There's not much left to say about Jace 2 that hasn't already been said, he's going to be remembered as one of the best cards ever printed. He has proved how powerful the Brainstorm effect is, that at 4 cmc and sorcery speed it's still an incredibly powerful effect.
I can lather praise on this card all day, but in the same breath I'll say I can't wait until he rotates out. It's frustrating that you can't build competitive control decks without this guy being a 4-of in it.

You know, the reason this guy is so good is because he has 4 abilitys. This makes his so versitile that he can go in any matchupp and be an all star.

Mono red is rarely seen in high level tournaments, 5k, 10k, State, U.S., WORLD......WTF. I was a proud red and black player and spent bucketloads on red and black supplies, and they make Jace the Mindfucker and Leyline of Sanctity
I don't think red and black exist anymore, just BUG and WU all the time.

After Worlds 2010 the card has risen to £70 :'(
I pray today I get at least one in the 30+ WW boosters.
