The first defense against milling.
The card that stretched a million 20 minute games into 2 hours.
The card that went from $300 uncommon to $.25 common overnight.
Such an innocent card these days, this card did WAY too much for the game when it was printed.
5/5 then, 3.5/5 now.

A great card, allows you to reuse your graveyard...This was a long-time tourney staple...

The cheapest way to get a Loaming Shaman effect. Good for the paranoid Golgari user.

Graveyards are too important a resource now, but back in the 90's, this was defensive tech against Tormod's Crypt in casual play.

This was more of a defense against Millstone, and Tormod's Crypt was the response to this. Back then there wasn't much you could do with your graveyard, so in most cases having it removed from the game wasn't a big deal.

Vastly outclassed by Elixer of Immortality, but this fella was the cheapest graveyard recursion in the game for many years. It was also a sort of 'poor man's Timetwister" for those who thought it was cool to bring back their graveyard.
