S***...this little guy won me four games, two matches in a draft tournament this week. Give him some equipment and he's doing a ton of damage to people playing 40 card decks. Everyone, including myself, were surprised I had obtained a player set of these. Especially when two people drafting beside me were playing blue as well.

My opponent in a Mirrodin Besieged prerelease had just played a Blightsteel colossus, and was priming it up to swing at my creatureless field next turn. I had 2 poison counters at this point. I thought i was completely toast, when i drew this. I grinned, played it, and my opponent immediately conceded. When I asked him why later, he replied: "Because you just would have just played Disperse to bounce blightsteel when i swing, played Memoricide and have me exile it. Then you just would have played your Screeching Silcaw again, and mill me untill i died. That card is broken tier and should be banned. One damage, AND milling for just two mana? Ridiculous." Unfortunately, I knew he was right.

So i foolishly felt bad, and traded it for a playset of Jace, the Mind Sculptors. I still regret that trade even now. Because think about it: Jace takes a while to actually mill and costs 4. You could play two of these instead, and mill... (see all)

Unlike old school poison cards, this guy will finish you off with mill before combat damage. Mill, it's the blue poison!

I don't see any parallels between this and Storm Crow, you guys. Where are you getting that? Oh, wait! You mean Storm Crow, not Black Lotus, got it.
