I don't see what's so great about this.

Sure, an affinity deck could probably cast it turn 5 or so... But by that point, wouldn't an affinity deck have already won anyway, or be very close to it?

I wonder why untapping everything is worth more CC then Broodstar? I think its because this is fifth dawn, and they didnt want to break affinity even more.

In theory, it's certainly interesting, and the cost should be high, but in practice the cost has just proven to be a bit too high, even in an artifact-based deck, to be of practical use.

As we can see, affinity was really nerfed by this point in the block. Too bad it was much too late, and standard/magic had already been ruined forever. Being a bit dramatic, but affinity does fall under "ungentlemanly magic."

Ungentlemanly magic deck types--
Infect
LD
Tinker
Affinity
Prime speaker edh


These deck types are rightly stigmatized for their immense power, flawed design and utter lack of strategy. Feel free to add on to my ever expanding list.

Turn One: Swamp

Turn Two: Island, Glimpse the Unthinkable targeting self.

Turn Three: Mountain, Noxious Revival paying two life targeting Blinkmoth Infusion in graveyard to top of library. Tap three lands, Erratic Explosion for fourteen.

Nice.

And now for the internal monologue of Mercurial Chemister

"Hmm, Affinity is a pretty strong strategy and I cou.. nah, I'll just pay R and chuck this huge spell at someone's face."

This has been the internal monologue of Mercurial Chemister.
