i imagine it useful in EDH, a good way of locking down a general, or a few generals at once

Of course this has flavor. It's the arena where all the legends try their mettle against each other. That's why they are tapped and don't untap; they are too busy to organize their own amusement.

Btw. there are so many legends today that I think this hoser should be dug out from the moth balls. Reprint this.

P.S. Why are these cards blackbordered? Actual Chronicle cards are white bordered.

Yeah this card isn't that great. But the artwork could have made for a really cool looking land.

I could see it finding a home in a few EDH decks.

Wow, the people complaining about this card have obviously never played EDH. For 3 mana, you can instantly douse any Voltron deck, or where commanders need to tap to use abilities, and at the very least, hamper any EDH deck's plans. Krenko, Mob Boss? Heartless Hidetsugu? Jaya Ballard, Task Mage? Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker? Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind? Marrow-Gnawer? Visara the Dreadful? Zirilan of the Claw? Need I share more generals that you can completely douse?

Take general damage winning out of the question. Put it in a lifegain deck, and your opponent has got to mill you. Then chuck in a Elixir of immortality and laugh in their face. Don't forget to chuck in a Darksteel Forge to keep your Arena around, mind you. Then they've got to exile it.

And what about your own general? It's an artifact, so it'll fit in any deck. ... (see all)
