It helps that he looks like a total badass.

I would make an Unreal Tournament joke, but the only thing I know about that game is that it exists.

This card also begs for an Inception joke, based upon the flavor text, but I'm lazy.

As for the card, he's awesome. I'll wait for him to rotate out, grab him for cheap, and slap him in an Illusion deck using all the illusions from Time Spiral and Coldsnap. Why? CASUAL!

This really crowns the broken Blue phantom creatures. Nice idea, design and result. Only problem is that undercosted creatures in Blue are very much out of color pie.

Illusions: MTG's new Tribal Jerkfaces. Pounding butts at your local card shops, everywhere.

Jace's Deck in DoTP 2012 is a hint that this guy helps make a casual Illusion deck incredibly fun.

Anyone who doubts this guy obviously never sat across or in front of him yet. Watch as a bunch of 1 drop 2/2's that are easily disposed of w/a cheap targeting effect become 3/3's, 4/4's, 5/5's and untouchable. It gets ugly.. FAST.

It was stupid to print a Lord replacing Merfolk and then not give them any support in the following set. They should have left Merfolk or just made a spirit lord in m12. I hope to see Merfolk again in M13.

EDIT: I reposted this with the links.

POSSIBLE mana curve?

1st turn: Island, Phantasmal Bear
2nd turn: Island, this card
3rd turn: Island, another Bear and a Phantasmal Image targeting this
4th turn: Island, Phantasmal Dragon
You can attack 5th turn for 20 damage. Pretty sweet.

@Mode Considering I once had a conversation with a player named "Kitsune Blademaster" (and that I run a Factions W/A called "Kit Blademaster"), the Guild Wars connection doesn't surprise me. (My E/D is also a bit Jace-like, except he wears orange.)

For RJDroid: Clearly someone at WotC loved Inception. If a Phantasmal Image copies him, does that make him Lord of the "Lord of the Unreal"?

Now someone make a Ghostbusters II homage and print "Phantasmal Train"! Turn your opponent into Winston!
