To VegaSecureA: Because Dark Ritual costs in the neighborhood of $0.25 to $1.00 to buy, where Black Lotus can cost up around $3000 to buy.

@DarthParallax: The Coldsnap preconstructed theme decks included some Ice Age and Alliances cards in the modern frame, Dark Ritual was one of those (as were Swords to Plowshares, Brainstorm, Disenchant and others - all with Ice Age artwork). Those cards were black bordered though. They don't show up in Gatherer but are in magiccards.info

Dark ritual: crazy powerful, crazy flavorful, a true classic. And though easily broken, it so nimbly skirts the edge of "over-powered" and "smartly-designed." One of R&D's better creations.

I once drew three of these, a Swamp, and Phage the Untouchable in my opening hand. 5 stars.

Dark Ritual is a classic black card. I really hope they reprint this for M11.
