that is 3 force spikes every time you want to play a spell.

this makes black control viable...Although it hurts you as well...could serve as a a finisher...

I can see this being great with manlands.

Back in the 4 Stripmine days this was incredible, still viable with Sinkhole, Wasteland and cheap creature.

I can see this going really well with Rebels, because they are never played (except the first Rebel), but are put into play.

I had a Minotaur deck with Nether Voids and land destruction. I used Didgeridoo to put the Minotaurs in play once Nether Void was out.

Not good in every deck, so its not a 5. However, this card is still immensely powerful. Its the black stasis or armageddon. I love playing it with mishras factory, maze of ith, land tax, paralyze, and tons of other stuff. turns paralyze into a swords to plowshares. So good. 4.5

This allows you to discard every spell by playing its cost.

Sure it applies to you too, but it's a universal constant Mana Leak. It'd be great in Archenemy, assuming you ARE the Archenemy.

Stupidly powerful in the right deck. Cheat things into play to ignore, destroy their land, etc. Yeah, good card!

Probably not good OUTSIDE of Archenemy- what it does is make Target Table Hate You. Even if you get away with it in Game 1, Game 2 you get beat up.
Except when you're the Archenemy, and all your cards do a variant of this, and no matter how many games you play, the heroes still end up rallying behind the cry of some variant of "*** YOU!!!" right before they all die. 3:D

Almost three years now of clicking Random Card, and I have not encountered this card until today. What a great ability in black!! For some reason I want to play this with Urzatron and just pay the cost with brute mana. Run Mishra's Helix and a bunch of board sweepers in the deck? Anyway, awesome card.

The perfect card to use with Guile. You still get to cast your spells!!

Wait... is the effect cumulative? As in, if I had 2 of these, would the person casting have to pay ? If so, this can be quite abusive in more than one way, I love it. :D
however we have good budget replacements for them, for the void we have trinisphere, for the abyss we have night of souls' betrayal, i have yet to find a replacement for the chains..

Also, I LOVE Harold McNeill's artwork. Jeez he's so good.
nether void, the abyss and chains of mephistopheles are the reasons why my pox deck will only be at 97%..
