I have a question. Does a creature get summoning sickness after blinking in and out like this? I assume that it does... but I pray that it doesnt.

(And this is where I regret just abandoning my first account when I got fed up with constantly forgetting its passcodes...)
Somewhat interdicted by Cloudshift once AVR goes into commission. At least this is still good for the flashback aspect.

Does this remove -1/-1 counters on creatures?

Such a shame that damage doesn't stack anymore. Even if they reprinted this, it would be way less cool than it was when it was played in limited. Shame, shame, shame. One of my favourite cards ever... it was.

Although i have to say Zher0 stated that perfectly, although it can also help immensely against your opponent's enchantments, such as Pacifism or even against Dark Banishing and Wrath of God.

@Sleazebag: Short answer: Yes. If you blink the creature during your turn, it can't attack or tap unless it has haste. If you blink the creature during opponent's turn, it's like playing a creature with flash; it could attack or tap next turn.

Mmmkay, so this issue has not really come up before with me, but does anyone know whether this counts as a blue spell rather than a white spell when it's played for it's flashback cost?

Its casting cost contains only white mana, therefore it's a white card, and when it's on the stack it's a white spell. It's just a white spell that happens to have an ability that uses blue mana.

The Blink is a classic Johnny card that doesn't require a full Johnny to utilize it. Amazing synergy with any "Enters the battlefield..." effects and effectively a counterspell against a spell targeting your creature. But best white instant ever? I think not: Swords to Plowshares, Path to Exile, and Unmake are just more ubiquitously useful.
