So can you cast the card you chose from your opponent's library and put into exile multiple times? Or only once? When you play the card from exile.. does it still remain in exile and a "copy" of it goes onto the field? Sorry, it can be a bit confusing.

This card is great! At the very least, it's land ramp for black (very uncommon). Plus, your opponent will probably forget that you have one of his/her cards in your hand at all times, making for a great surprise instant.

I have a question for anyone that knows the right ruling on this card... It states " You may look at and PLAY that card for as long as it remains exiled." - It doesn't say you have to CAST... so can you just put it on to the battlefield? I was just wondering on that. And another question, it can be countered when comming from exile correct?

In limited, stealing your opponent's best card is far more crushing than it is in constructed. That is, indeed, why they are called "bombs." I'd at least consider this card as a first pick in any pack, but the BB really hurts it. Most times picking a card that doesn't commit you to a color will be a better pick, but if this goes later than fourth, it should be taken as a clear signal that black is open.

Given Batterskull, Sword of Feast and Famine, Sword of War and Peace, etc it seems like at least a couple of these would be good in any deck playing black and creatures. Add in Tumble Magnet, Ratchet Bomb, Wurmcoil Engine and the various Phyrexian mana cards and it seems worth having another couple in the sideboard.

In EDH, this is a more expensive Top.

At the prerelease, used this to pull out an opponents Life's Finale, then cast it a turn later and buried his Phyrexian Obliterator (and some other creatures) it was mega-awesome.

I have someone who plays this to leaf through your deck, see your combo pieces, take a land (or something amazing he can play),
Then Memoricide you the next turn.

Someone used this on me once in a mono black mirror. I was expecting to get Memoricided with my own copy of the card, until I cracked a fetch to look at what was missing. My opponent apparently misclicked and took Horrifying Revelation instead XD.
