I just found out this is actually part of the PreCon deck "Rat's Nest". Which probably makes it the only killer rare ever featured in a PreCon... (I just wish it had also included Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni.)
I immediately bought the last two I found for a good price, soon I'll call three of these mine. Can't wait to try it out!

Kamigawa Block Constructed was something like
White Weenie with 4 Umezawa's Jitte, 4 Manriki-Gusari (there to kill Jittes)
Black Weenie with 4 Umezawa's Jitte, 4 Manriki-Gusari

Simply ridiculous in my casual Kor tribal, crazy synergy with Kor Duelist.

In kamigawa the theme was the lengendary rule. so if a card was too good. it was ok because they made legendary you were only supposed to have one. they had no idea that they would eventually make the cord doubling season, or the ability proliferate.jitte is strong enough that it could have a justifiably ban. my theory is wizards had to been distracted by some thing else at the time. not because of how unarguably strong it is.not the fact of howmake it though beta testing without mega-tweaks .it is the fact that wizards put it in a starter deck with inkeyes the servent of oni the best to rares in the set .

Jitte go home; get out of here. Legendary artifact, you sure got that right.
Personally I refuse to play with it, although it's kind of a moral issue with me and a belief that I don't need it, I mostly don't use it because a friend of mind has fallen in love with it, so it's unofficially become his forte.
The downside to what it promotes in the theory and technical deck/gameplay building skill is that sometimes my friend has a deck idea that he can't seem to bring to full or supposed full potential, then he adds the Jitte and lots of his problems are solved.
The question remains though: in those instances, was it just the right card his decks needed or was his decks generally or overall mediocre/flawed?
I don't want to knock one card as playing a critical role in a deck's success, there's nothing really wrong with that although practicality may suggest not putting all eggs in one basket (relying predominantly or exclusively on any one particular card).
It's a tough call. So for me, I... (see all)
