to make the afore mentioned combo with ashnod's coupon a game winner. carry a drink with you, put a modest price tag on it of ohhh, bout $1000, even if they do buy it, you just made $1000! otherwise they'll have to concede

@A3Kitsune: Due to the rulings on wording changes, currently the only "lifelink" card from before Time Spiral that actually changed functionality in the first place is Loxodon Warhammer, because it had already been reprinted to say lifelink. The other cards' wordings and functionality did not change.
@Ratoly: Then your opponent calls a judge to give Floral Spuzzem a game loss for stalling. So, your creature loses the game. XD
...5'd for awesome!

I just happen to be a rules lawyer that will defend the official comprehensive rules to the death. However, the first question I ask when I take on a case is "does this involve R&D's Secret Lair?" Those are the only cases I will not take.
This card is the essence of rules chaos in Magic: The Gathering, however, as a rules lawyer, I am compelled to remind all of you what Mark Rosewater said himself in the FAQTIWDAWCC (Frequently Asked Questions That If We Didn't Answer Would Cause Chaos (http://www.wizards.com/magic/tcg/article.aspx?x=magic/faq/unhinged))
" Remember kids, the law trumps all _Magic_ rules"
"The rules don't allow you to touch other players without their permission. Okay, it's not actually the rules, it's the law."
So, chopping somebody's hand off with a butcher's knife or murdering them with a chainsaw, would, according to Rosewater, be against the rules because it's against the law XD
I hope this ruins everybody's fun ;)
5/5

Progenitus can be played turn 1 one with this, because it has protection from rules.

You can't just..you can't just change the rules. A hand, in magic terms, is a hand full of cards, not a physical hand.
There are a lot of cool interactions with this card that people are ignoring because 'with progenitus you can't touch him c:' and that's wrong.

this plus the original version of Time Walk, the one that said "target player loses next turn."
Turn one, underground sea, tap for vampiric tutor or mystical tutor or something.
Turn two, this, tap this and underground sea for time walk.
There is no turn three, you already won...

Donate an old Icy Manipulator, then Mindslaver, while you control a Vile Bile. Proceed to make your opponent physically tap the bile as many times as they have mana.
Speaking of mindslaver, the newest one gives you control of target player during their turn. Think about it, you now have control of a player, and they aren't an instant or sorcery, so you can argue that they are a permanent. You just need to use Rishadan Pawn Shop while they are under your control to shuffle them into their own deck.

This still works with "comes into play" effects, and "remove from the game" effects exile cards
403.5. Previously, the battlefield was called the "in-play zone." Cards that were printed with text that contains the phrases "in play," "from play," "into play," or the like are referring to the battlefield. Cards that were printed with that text have received errata in the Oracle card reference.
406.7. Previously, the exile zone was called the "removed-from-the-game zone." Cards that were printed with text that "removes from the game" exiles that object. The same is true for cards printed with text that "sets aside." Cards that were printed with that text have received errata in the Oracle card reference.
