Goyf days brought us Goyf, Venser, Golgari Grave-Troll, Dark Confidant. In Standard itself, Wall of Roots, Riftwing Cloudskate, Loxodon Hierarch, Yosei etc. were pretty great. Lorwyn has the first modern creatures, and I'd say those Standard bannings... do they hold a candle to Reveillark, Mulldrifter, Vendilion Clique, Mistbind Clique, Demigod of Revenge, Cloudthresher, Heritage Druid, Kitchen Finks, Figure of Destiny? Hardly. The answers just suck, unlike back then. Port Rune Snag, Doom Blade, Incinerate, Skred, O-Ring, Wispmare, Ingot Chewer, Wrath, Damnation, Venser, an assortment of other random things and see how long the problems stay as problems.
