Yesss.... just traded in my playset of Jace, The Mind Sculptor for a foil one! This flying fiend even survives top-notch kill spells like Spawning Breath and the mighty Doom Blade. Just stellar card all around, no drawbacks...useful creature type (imp tribal). Like other game-breaking cards they paid tribute to him on other cards such as Mass Polymorph.

Using the "falls to Doom Blade" logic, this is strictly better than Baneslayer Angel.

Extremely overpowered. Mid-game hand and tempo disruption accompanied with a body well suited to going to the graveyard easily? And it's a common. Constructed staple.

They should never have printed powercreep like this.
So cool... And yet so broken... I have four in my Homarid/Brushwagg tribal deck of course, because he is definitely worth splashing red for.
Just think of what they would have said if he had been in Urza Block. No one would have noticed YawgWin, because this is actually strictly better, since it does something that YawgWin never, ever will be able to: IT FREAKIN' UNTAPS FOR FREE!!!
It's even stricly better then Black Lotus. Black Lotus may untap for free as well, but does it have Flying? No!

I had to read this card a few times before I realized:
It IS that broken.

the second deck I ever built was based on reanimating and saccing chimney imp to lock out an opponent. it worked.
