The way I usually play this card in my green "stompy deck" (which includes Progenitus, Legacy Weapon, etc), is I play at least 2 helm of awakenings to minimize the cost.

Otherwise, it's really only a mana-conversion card that costs 1 less than the actual effect returns to you. With the helms, I've been able to play Progenitus for two green mana before (on the fourth turn, nonetheless).
These would be a lot nastier if their cost wasn't so stifling for their effect.

Still, a great card; glad I own four of them.

Feel free to play this with any of the Bringers.
You know, those really awesome creatures from the same set?
Or try something with sunburst. It's a mechanic from this set also.

Originally fueled Sunburst decks, and made it pretty easy to cast the Bringers in the same block. As mentioned, also works alongside Fist of the Suns

T1: Two lotuses (one red/blue and the other green), channel the suns, twincast/reverberate, progenitus. Go.

@ Forgeling
At least a functional reprint would have been nice. Though there's nothing to suggest that Grixis actually has a sun.

I would use this with Fist of Suns and Emrakul, the Aeons Torn.
1st turn: Forest, Llanowar Elves
2nd turn: land, Fist of Suns
3rd turn: land, Channel the Suns --> Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
3.1 turn: swing for 15dmg w/Annihilator 6

@Etragan

Or Jund for that matter.

Though the fact there's not a single card from either shard that isn't obscured by clouds makes this something of a moot point.

This could have been reprinted in Alara Reborn. I'm sure Bant, Esper, Grxis, Jund and Naya all have their own sun.

It's a good card, but it works best to use Fist of Suns to cast this
