This is one of the most powerful effects they've ever printed at only one mana cost.

Kicks the pants off of all those 'give your creature(s) protection from x until end of turn' spells-- essentially strictly better, since there are almost no creatures I would rather have than my own life.

Platinum Angel causes you to make wierd prioritizing decisions compared to this, but other than that, I'd rather save myself. And Split-Second might somehow be relevant in being better than than Platinum Angel.

Faith's Shield gives it a pretty good run for it's money though!

Nothing? I mean, really, this does nothing but prevent. And I love it.

This card with Ad Nauseam WITH Tainted Sigilx1-x4. Tutoring? What tutoring? >_<

If you could afford it (or had it already down somehow), omniscience (or Myr Infi-mana or whatever) would make that hilarious. Plus, anything in your graveyard? Use Elixer of Immortality that you just drew!

Needless to say, this would be an awesome set of cards for people like me who enjoy large numbers of large cards. (say, 200+ card decks)

Timmys... gotta love being one.

@ad nauseam comments: It only works if you win the turn you cast it.

@battleofwits: It's what allows counterspells and some other things to work.

@sarcasmelemental: Not if you're at 1 life.

@buridan: Still negative.

Actually, wouldn't this card allow you to draw if both you and your opponent went into negative life/0 at the same time.

I.E. imagine you and your opponent each have 3 or less health and a Soulcage Fiend dies, then each player loses 3 life. This, I believe, doesn't effect the fact you draw?
