It's ironic that the original legends were really, really bad and this is a legend-hate card.

great with zedruu the greathearted, or other generals that never need to be untapped, in EDH

I find it hilarious how a bad card from an awful set still manages to kick all those hordes of kamigawa legends firmly and effectively in the crotch.

Yea, not a whole lot of flavor, and yes, vaguely ironic, but hows-about playing it in EDH? That's the stuff.

This card has no flavor whatsoever.
This card is not very good.
This card is rare.

Wow, the people complaining about this card have obviously never played EDH. For 3 mana, you can instantly douse any Voltron deck, or where commanders need to tap to use abilities, and at the very least, hamper any EDH deck's plans. Krenko, Mob Boss? Heartless Hidetsugu? Jaya Ballard, Task Mage? Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker? Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind? Marrow-Gnawer? Visara the Dreadful? Zirilan of the Claw? Need I share more generals that you can completely douse?

Take general damage winning out of the question. Put it in a lifegain deck, and your opponent has got to mill you. Then chuck in a Elixir of immortality and laugh in their face. Don't forget to chuck in a Darksteel Forge to keep your Arena around, mind you. Then they've got to exile it.

And what about your own general? It's an artifact, so it'll fit in any deck. ... (see all)

Use it in my Rayne build for EDH, she doesn't need to be untapped and Arena screams target me, they play a card on it + I draw a card, Win, Win. If it stays it's stasis' alot of generals.

LOL, I agree this card completely nerfs Kamigawa. 4/5 for the surprise factor alone.

Totally random... at least have the Legends actually fight or something... oh, well.
