This card invoked a little dialog on my head::
Who rule Barter-town?
http://mtgcast.hodgestorage.com/pict...qxwwkxcr_b.jpg
Master-Blaster! Master-Blaster rule Barter-Town!
Ok, so the card isn't that great, but I'll try to contribute.... how about:
Tattermunge Duo + Djinn Illuminatus + Pact of the Titan? Aw, heck, add Fling for good measure.
I admit it, I posted entirely for the movie quote, but you knew that already.
Replicate doesn't trigger this guy.Quote:

Return a card at random from your graveyard to your hand, then reorder your graveyard as you choose.
It looks like it has potential, i mean it's like gamble, but it can potentially loop, since it effects the grave...
maybe it can go in some combo, get back a random ritual?
Are they bringing back graveyard order matters? Then at least we can explain to people why they have to keep their graveyard in order, instead of, "It's the rules."Quote:

The fact that this card potentially has use in older formats that contain such cards is just a nice bonus.Quote:

what about it being a singleton in some combo decks..unless the deck runs fetches or land grant then the Fossil find will always grab you a relevant card (Disruption, Ritual, Tutor)

Players can't gain life.
Damage can't be prevented.
All damage is dealt as if its source had wither. (Damage is dealt in the form of -1/-1 counters)
Coolest card I've seen in a long while. There's a Johnnygasm hidden somewhere, too.
Also:
Elsewhere Flask http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/images/smilies/mana2.gif
Artifacthttp://mtgsalvation.com/images/spoil...oor-common.gif
When Elsewhere Flask comes into play, draw a card.
Sacrifice Elsewhere Flask: Lands you control become the basic land type of your choice in addition to their other types until end of turn.
Now this is a decent Blood Moon answer for decks with horrible manabases. It can be cast with a Moon in play, you aren't wasting a card on it, then you pop it when you draw the appropriate removal spell.
You're totally missing the fact that its an uber tutor in Burning Tog with a Tog out! Or something...Quote:

I think it's ok. Unfortunatly it doesn't actually do anything on it's own, unlike sulfuric vortex and it is also useless against many decks (decks that do not block with larger cratures, gain life, or prevent damage). At best a side board card.Quote:

But in legacy, it's at best a sideboard card for random aggro decks. I mean what matchup exactly do you want this thing bad enough that you would devote card space and 3 mana to it, Life? Yeah, that deck sees a lot of play.
Actually, you need 5 swamps for that. The combo works with any creature that taps for net 3 mana or more -- it's probably easier to work with Priest of Titania, Krosan Restorer, or Viridian Joiner. It's a good bit easier than the 5 mana required to combo out using Staff of Domination. Even then, minimum 6 mana for a finish isn't unreasonable for legacy.Quote:
