Saw one of these against a mill deck at Game Day yesterday. The Mill player did not look happy when three quarters of his opponents deck went onto the field.

What if this is the first spell you cast this turn, and you bring back a Maelstrom Nexus? Is Open The Vaults considered to be still on the stack when the nexus resolves? Would open the vaults get a cascade, or would Nexus' ability just fizzle?
Thoughts?

when you "open the vaults" if there are artifact creatures in the graveyard, do they have summoning sickness when they enter the battle field. for example if glassdust hulk enters the battlefield as a response to "open the vaults" resolving, does it get the benefit of +1/+1 counters (with other artifacts comming into play) and being unblockable ?? can i attack that turn or does the art. creatures have summoning sickness ??

@Morphling1005: The creatures still have summoning sickness unless they have haste. If you stack the cards so that Glassdust comes into play first, it gets the +1/+1 bonuses and becomes unblockable, but it won't be able to attack.
About the flavor text: "When the vaults are empty, everyone is rich." Wtf? More likely "You are rich."

I thought about making a casual deck with this and Mirror Gallery along with the Shrines (see below if you don't know them) and some way to get a lot of my cards in my graveyard. Mill myself or something like that, dredge possibly.
I don't know if the legendary enchantments would survive if they came into play at the same time as Mirror Gallery of if I would have to get that out ahead of time. (?)

Alright, how's this? Blue and White artifact deck... If the draw permits it, turn 5-cast Traumatize on your on library; turn 6-Open the Vaults.

Darksteel colossus can be in the graveyard! Yixlid jailer
Also put 4 Reaper kings in your grave with some other scarecrows for MAD DESTRUCTION!

This card ends games, following a Day of Judgment.

Yixlid Jailer doesn't work either.
"If Darksteel Colossus would be put into a graveyard from anywhere, reveal Darksteel Colossus and shuffle it into its owner's library instead."
It never goes to the graveyard. It goes straight back to the deck.
