@ The-Earth-Dragon:
Uhh...
Late 90s we had Survival of the Fittest, Lotus Petal, Tolarian Academy, Counterspell, Academy Rector, Forbid, Dark Ritual, Memory Jar, Oath of Druids, Time Spiral, Wasteland, Yawgmoth's Will, Reanimate, Entomb, Buried Alive.
But I guess you're right though, The-Earth-Dragon:
Other than land destruction, mana acceleration, counterspells, library manipulation, reanimation, card draw, and graveyard recursion, I guess everything did get more powerful...

This isn't a bad Ponder, Ponder is a better this. This came out like a decade earlier, but back then it was actually not bad.

actually, since it's EXACTLY ponder with one more mana, it's more like a bad ponder...

yeah but it might help if you need 4 ponders in your vintage deck

Perfect example of how everything is stronger now over what it was in the late 90s

I don't know why this card has such a low rating. You know what this is? Go ahead and have 8 ponders (word for word) in your legacy deck, but you'll have to pay 1 more for 4 of them.
