very good indeed. I got one and always overlooked it, when I went back in serious magic business I made sure to include it in my 
tourney deck

I use this in my casual Pyromancer Ascension deck and it works so good to get me where I need to be, which is having PA on the next few turns.

It occurred to me that if you put an Elixir of Immortality in a deck with this badboy, you can go through your deck until you find an elixir, stack that section, play the elixir, use the elixir, recover your lost life and the vault - and repeat all over...

This card is great.
Personally, I like to hold it in my hand as long as possible. The moment my opponent thinks I'm down to nothing, I toss this out and ask them to take a short break while I set up my next 5 turns up.

Pulled off the greatest shit ever w/ this + wheel of fortune + mind twist the other day. used this to stack the mind twist in my next draw, emptied my hand, cast the wheel to fill our hands, and then made my friend discard nearly his entire hand with mind twist. Thank satan for dark rituals. Granted, i could have filled my hand and emptied his with just mind twist and necropotence, but this way made me feel like a sir. True story

@scumbling1 - I assume that it's supposed to be where Lim stores all of his unused stuff (parts of unfinished skeletons, old spellbooks, etc).

I immediately ordered a playset online. I'm replacing my demonic tutors with these diamonds.

For how much everyone is gushing over this card, how come we never really saw it in tournament play? Better options at the time? Either way, I have to agree that it's pretty damn useful. Maybe we'll get a functional reprint in Gatecrash- it seems like a very Dimir-y card.

5/5, any day of the year.
Maybe one of the best cards I have ever encountered for Legacy play. At the very least, it's a Cruel Tutor & Index with flash. This is a universally legal "any card" tutor for 2 mana. Demonic Tutor, Demonic Consultation: illegal in Legacy, and for good reason.
Already 5/5. The following is just a potential bonus.
In clarification of a prior controversy, Corey_bayoudragonfly is mistaken; tcollins is correct:
This can get you any 5 cards, not just 5 cards consecutive at the time of resolution.
Keep in mind, with a library count indivisible by 5, you are not stuck with distinct, immiscible groups of 5. Every complete loop through your library allows you to migrate your desired 5 cards a little closer to each other. Once they are consecutive, it's just a matter of time before they surface as a group.
Granted, this is just hypothetical. Even if you're perfectly ef... (see all)
