Boros Gideon rumored to be in Return to Ravnica's second set. So. Psyched.

Now that I look at this card, I think that one-third of the FAQ's of Vorthoses will likely be covered in an article about Gideon:

Q1 "Why hasn't Nicol Bolas destroyed the Multiverse yet?"
M13's answer: wait for it....

***Q2 "Why haven't the Eldrazi destroyed the Multiverse yet?"
Ravnica Gideon's answer: About those guys...I'm apparently a BAMF.

Q3 "Why hasn't New Phyrexia compleated the Multiverse yet?"
WoTC answer: Well, OK you have us there. We are returning to Time Spiral/the whole Multiverse eventually, but first we have to show you this cool place called 'Shandalar' we dug out of an old videogame we think everyone's forgotten....

At least, that's my theory :)

Very hard and risky. I'd like to see the combo players using this to see how it works :D

Use anything that allows you to pay life at instant speed, then stack 2 Angel's Grace in your hand. At the end of your opponent's turn, cast an Angle's Grace and pay all but 1 life. Use the second Angel's Grace on your turn if you need to and win at 1 life.

Ad Nauseam could help trigger this. You have to hope you hit the right cards to not lose to much life.

Phyrexian Mana makes this card so much more fun.

@Lord_of_Tresserhorn: No player receives priority during the untap step, so you can't do anything during that step. Even if an ability triggers during that step, it doesn't go on the stack until the beginning of the upkeep. And this ability *only* triggers at the beginning of your upkeep, and *only* if you are at 1 life. So you have to put yourself down to 1 life during your opponents end step, at the latest.
