Can't knock the John Avon 5th Edition art, but the 7th Edition art edges it just for the humor factor.

Do you have any idea who I am? Basically, kind of a big deal.

Hey Duskdale_Wurm...
Opponent: Overrun!
You: Fog...
Opponent: Ha, ha - attack again. (and keeps drawing cards while you play around with Fogs)
The problem is, each time your opponent attacks with an Overrun and you counter with a Fog, you're just doing a 1 for 1 card exchange. That's why Fog-like cards need to be cantrips: even in great situations (e.g. using Fog to counter an massive "Overrun" assault) you're still just delaying the inevitable. Your opponent will just launch his massive attack the very next turn, while also drawing an additional card that may help him advance his position. On the other hand, if Darkness, Holy Day and Fog are cantrips, you stifle your opponent for a little while and also have a chance to improve your situation with extra cards while catching a breather. Of course they should probably cost 2 or 3 mana in this case, a cantrip Fog for 1 mana would be a bit powerful.

@DrJack See: Foxfire (yes, I know it only targets one creature, but in most games with a rotation of removal, one creature is often the only threat)
