@zntumall: the card needs to have a printed cost of 0. A card with NO cost printed on it cannot be cast normally. So only magic cards can actually be played this way. Besides, cards that are not magic cards are illegal in the deck. However if your friends ALLOW it, go ahead...

The most skill (/encyclopediac knowledge) testing commander out there. Plus then you could effectively play any card in your deck regardless of whether it's banned or not or you can afford it (Black Lotus). I so have to see if anyone would let me play this. Worst case I can always use him as a backup general in case I'm ever actually allowed to use him.

@ Mata-nui3

Zantumall is actually somewhat right about this. It says cards, not magic cards. While you're correct in stating the card needs to have the same mana cost you're forgetting some things... I believe those things are called Ancestral Vision, Evermind, Hypergenesis, Living End,
Lotus Bloom, Restore Balance, Wheel of Fate.

Thank you Richard Garfield, Ph.D. for making a pair of twos able to win you a different game.

Guys. That crappy Time Walk that was sitting in your hand is now a Storm Crow.

Making this is the second best card ever made.

I think I found my new EDH general. My playgroup will probably kick me out the second or third time I play an index card as a Blacker Lotus (notice it says "you may play CARDS, not MAGIC CARDS").

I have a framed version of this I hang on my wall, and pray to every night before a draft.
