This card makes me really wish we DIDN'T have internet spoilers, actually.
As Mythic Rares, only a few people would have had this and Eye of Ugin (provided we also decide that only store proprietors can buy anything larger than a Fat Pack)
I know, I know- ultimately, the game is so awesome everyone wants as much of it as possible, and those ideas will never happen- but the cat is out of the bag, and can't ever be put back in, and because of that, some moments of AWESOME are lost to us forever-
Can you IMAGINE what Rise of the Eldrazi would have been like if it was ACTUALLY A SURPRISE?
Oh good god....the first time anyone saw Emrakul, the Aeons Torn in a world without spoilers.....they would literally shit. their. pants. Vendors would insist on checking for signs of Eldrazi being fakes. It would have been COMPLETELY. INSANE.
They're still pretty nuts....but I wish it had been a surprise. I really do. It would have been epic.
If you feel like destroying everyone at the E... (see all)

You will NOT make it in time to cleanse anything if a smart player uses this card. It's just that kind of "I win" card. Amazingly powerful.

This+Conqueror's Pledge=6 or 12 turns of flying, pumped indestructible creatures.

"Gods don't die. They merely slumber." best flavor ever

I've slotted it into my artifact deck now, and it works pretty well. Put it in during your turn, enjoy all the benefits, and just before the end of your opponent's turn transmute it back out so you keep all your creatures. Repeat each turn.
Of course, if your opponent 'forces' your transmutes during their turn (ie. to avoid combat damage or destruction spells), you can just take the sacrifice and rez your artifact with a Sanctum Gargoyle or Sharuum - or not if you've sacrificed something weak like a Thopter token. It isn't surprising that such a powerful artifact works well in an artifact deck.

"With strange eons," and all that. This is broken and I hate it. Then again, I thought everything the Eldrazi touched turned to stupid, so maybe I'm just not getting it.

Just add Ant Queen.
I know a guy who does this, and he does it a LOT.

Get this in play with Luminous Angel or some other creature that creates tokens each turn and it's pretty much good game from there.
This card makes me drool a bit.
