Maze of Ith + Magus of the Candelabra + Blue Sun's Zenith = Good game!
Wizards, please bring me a new Simic general! I have so many things I wish to break in EDH.

Don't forget Prismatic Omen, just in case you want this card for mana for some odd reason.

Imagine having 4 of these on the battlefield.

I've never understood, from a flavor perspective, why this card untaps the creature in question.
So, tapping usually represents a creature being busy doing something. Often, it means that creature is busy attacking your opponent. Sometimes it means they are busy zapping your opponent with a spell (Prodigal Sorcerer) or helping you power your spells (Llanowar Elves). Regardless, it means they're busy.
The only way I can think of for a maze to stop a creature from attacking is if they are trying to get to you, but encounter a maze they can't solve, stopping them from getting to you. Wouldn't wandering through a maze keep a creature pretty busy?
Then again, using the same logic, I also think that flying creatures (and most other forms of evasion) should be unaffected by this as well, but that would make the card a lot less useful.

A friend was telling me about this card and was really confusing me. He said, essentially, that creatures that untap during combat do no combat damage. We were talking specifically about this card, and I wasn't sure what he meant, but now that I see the card it makes more sense.

Use with Master of Cruelties or Lim-Dul's Paladin...neither assign combat damage to opponents, anyways...

I didn't understand how good this was until I realized it's ANY attacking creature. Brutal.
