Re: Obscure Cards with Latent Potential
How about Force Field, it costs a fortune($$), and when they attack with emrakul you say, Ill take one sir, and enter scoop phase :P
On the same note how about moments peace? Fog with flashback

i guess it is dependent on that fast mana you got in vintage to pay for the costs and still be able to cast stuff or counter spells.
anyway this could be pretty nice though i guess people already tried to properly use it.

How about Jewled Amulet. Helps with metalcraft and can be good next to mox opal if you trying to get to 4 or 5 mana.
Re: Obscure Cards with Latent Potential
One of the most undervalued Legends rares out there is Land Equilibrium. There *has* to be a way to fit it in Stax, or anything that can make mana out of nonland permanents.

Bequeathal is one enchant creature that actually makes sense. Looks dece with things like pridemage.

There's also my favorite, Casting of Bones.
I also like Mindslicer a lot. Theoretically, it works great with stuff like pox and bloodghast.

Don't forget that Parasite can knock off Planeswalkers without having to sacrifice itself, unlike Vampire Hexmage.
Re: Obscure Cards with Latent Potential
Hex Parasite also interacts favorably with Death's Shadow. :laugh:
Re: Obscure Cards with Latent Potential
Am I being trolled?
Hex Parasite removes counters. Death's Shadow gets -x/-x.
Re: Obscure Cards with Latent Potential
You're not. Shadow has got an even better interaction with the Firebreathing Phyrexian.. shame that it's nowhere near playable anyhow. Mystic Remora continues to intrigue me however.

Activate the ability on Hex parasite multiple times removing 0, but pay 2 life instead of B.... lower your life total at will for death's Shadow.
Re: Obscure Cards with Latent Potential
Hex Parasite and unstable mutation.
Re: Obscure Cards with Latent Potential
Is anyone else eyeballing Noxious Revival?
I want to use that with a BUg setup with Loam, cycle lands, and Mental Missteps.

Chameleon Colossus?
As far as currently underrated: Phyrexian Revoker
Re: Obscure Cards with Latent Potential
Actually Death's Shadow has became almost playable with Phyrexian mana. Throw in Phyrexian Metamorph as Death's Shadow 5-8, Gitaxian Probe for free draw, Misstep for pro-Stp, and all 3 pump Shadow. You can even play Fow now, as you have enough blue count (I'd play Daze too, as Shadow decks tend to win or lose within the first 2 turns) in a deck made of 56 cards thanks to Street Wraith.The rest is black instant mana sources and Infernal Contract+ Cruel Bargains. Sounds fun.
Re: Obscure Cards with Latent Potential
Mana Vortex is an interesting lock piece
