QAZAZ, that won't work. Wild Pair requires that you cast/play the spell, but T&N puts them onto the battlefield/into play.
Still, this is a very strong card, used in plenty of mono-Green beatdown and infinite combo decks.

Any two creatures in your library directly into play for 9 mana, and who knows how soon it will hit the table in a green deck? Very strong card. 4.5/5.
Mirrodin gave us the troll, too. Wasn't it supposed to be the anti-green block?

Phage the Untouchable + Platinum Angel
You're welcome, everyone trying to cheat Phage into play.

Phage says that "If you didn't cast it from your hand, you lose the game."
Tooth and Nail says "Put up to two creature cards from your hand onto the battlefield."
Putting cards onto the battlefield is not the same thing as casting them. If you Tooth and Nailed for a Phage, you'd lose.

"Belz_, you wouldn't lose the game because it isn't putting a card from your library into play. It's putting it into your hand, then into play."
No, Phage kills you unless you cast her from your hand. Even though T&N puts it from your hand into play, you still don't cast her.

Gah... Miroddin players have learned to hate seeing this card played.

10/4/2004 It is only considered "cast from your hand" if you cast it as a spell from your hand. Putting it onto the battlefield from your hand using a spell or ability will cause you to lose the game.
Quoted from the ruling on Phage. I wish it wasn't so, but it is.

Trolls were in Alpha (220), just not a major creature type . Mirrodin only added 4 more to the long list.
