YES! It's back! Simply one of the best tap cards, a colourless Artifact which more or less controls what your opponents can do.
Delay a spell one turn by tapping there land.
Delay damage by tapping creatures.
And simply stop artifact's from happening.
This card with an un-tap card, such as Voltaic Key is amazing.

How about... Howling Mine...
Draw 2, tap Howling Mine... your opponent draws one. Untap/Upkeep/Draw FTW.

This is my all time favorite card, i have approximately 4.5 thousand icys. I have a ton from each set, including Alpha, Beta, Foils, etc. Love the artwork, love what it does, simply put: I <3 Icys!

I can see why so many old players like this card. It's one of the only Alpha cards that hasn't become broken or to weak to play.

The only thing that irks me about the Manipulator the mana cost. A lot of powerful spells these days have a converted manacost of 4, which means that you'll either have to choose between one of them or this.
If you can accelerate it, then by all means, the Manipulator is great. But in that case, you would perhaps be better off just playing another 4cc spell that much earlier :/

It's like a nerfed Stasis.

When I have this card out, I feel pretty safe.

Ever since I kept an Emrakul tapped down with this card I've been a fan. So much control.....
