Used in Standard in red decks to kill Master of Waves.

I am not kidding.

Don't pass this up in draft. This is not a card meant to sell boosters. This is a card meant to undermine the multitude of common and uncommon X/1s in draft.

Never underestimate colorless sources of damage, and never underestimate the impact of one damage in general.

Ball Lightning? No thanks.

The bad news is that this takes up an uncommon slot in your boosters.

There is no good news.

I'd totally grab this in draft if I got a Dismiss into Dream :D

It would take awhile to get online, but draft games are often slower and you'd almost always win in that situation unless they're winning really really hard or have a Naturalize.

Lots of self-deprecating flavor text in M14. I kind of like it.

How this has seen twelve core set printings out of fifteen is beyond me.

This + Training Grounds + March of the Machines + Voltaic Construct + Sol Ring = Win

Use some Etherium Sculptors to get your combo going by turn 4.

Turn 1: Island, Sol Ring
Turn 2: Island, Etherium Sculptor, Training Grounds
Turn 3: Island, Etherium Sculptor, March of the Machines
Turn 4: Island, Voltaic Construct, Rod of Ruin

Then you just tap Sol Ring for 2 mana, use 1 to activate Rod of Ruin, and another to activate Voltaic Construct (untapping Sol Ring). Tap Sol Ring again for 2 mana, use 1 to activate Voltaic Construct (untapping Rod of Ruin), and the other to activate Voltaic Construct again (untapping Sol Ring). Repeat until win.

Now of course... (see all)

I lost to one of these in a draft.

You know those moments when you think you should just stop playing? Like when you're playing EDH and you keep trying to play your General, only to be constantly slapped out of play? Or when you're trying to play your win-con in constructed but it keeps getting countered?

You start to feel older than you actually are. You consider taking up different hobbies. "Maybe model trains" thought I. "At least I won't be smacked down by scrubs who play this and Pillarfield Ox".

Morel of the story: Regathan Firecat doesn't fare well against the rod.
