Goes nicely in some styles of burn, where you can potentially finish them off turn 1 or 2 with your new hand.

Oh, and another trick: Anything you have under one of your own Oblivion Rings will pop out and be ready for use after death. Not particularly useful, but you could potentially stick another Mirror under there...

@nerf: But what are the odds that in an edh game no one is going to get any artifact removal? Also, you're just going to come in second eventually anyway.

Play red and white. Get yourself down to low, low health with this out. The turn before you suspect you'll die, Balance. Then, on the stack, Lightning Bolt or something similar on yourself.

Keep your permanents:
Detention Sphere
Oblivion Ring

Then Infinite Reflection either
Wormfang Crab
or
Wormfang Turtle

OR just exile Synod Sanctum with Oblivion Ring after grabbing the permanents you want.


And yeah N3rf, beautiful.

@N3rf The only thing about that is that it says; shuffle all permanents "you own" not "you control".

@iHARBiNG3R: That's the point. That player can never truly die, since the mirror will always be on the field under their control.

@N3rf: That's.... the most evil thing I've ever heard....

Occasionally suspend a Restore Balance while the mirror is out to buy yourself some time. If no one wants to waste removal on the mirror, then they can't risk killing you or else they lose everything when Restore Balance resolves. Even better if you have a Pact of Negation at the ready for any attempts to remove the Mirror or counter Restore Balance.

Probably best in straight Burn or RDW
Why? When you plop this and lose on your T5 (which is often too late for those decks anyway) you start off with castable spells and quickly burn through your hand again.

Perfect way to get yourself low safely? Immolating Souleater.
