Clearly the weakest of winds... or perhaps a tie between this and the white wind :(

Clearly no one plays with mana flare any more. In my U/R deck replete with Izzet Chronomancer-s, false demise-s, and the Mirari....I cast the shizzle out of this card.

This art is fantastic. I'd love to have a print of it.

This type of effect was very rare at the time (still is), so they didn't have a good handle on how much it should cost. Additionally, they were still in power level recoil after Urza block, otherwise this would have probably exiled more cards. I'd guess 12.

This card is a c-c-c-combo breaker.

At least this one is very expensive to cast, meaning you won't have to worry about it early in the game, and it's not likely to happen often. That's the way it should be for effects that let you search through someone else's deck. (Actually, I'd prefer that it doesn't ever happen).

I actually quite like this in EDH. It's pretty good for getting rid of certain cards that you'd prefer not to deal with, and it's pretty castable in that format in the right deck. Things that come to mind for exile: Eldrazi, Praetor's Counsel, Iona. Hell, you can even do it on yourself if your General has been Spell Crumple'd and you want to thin your deck of land in the late game. Sadistic Sacrament is obviously better, but this has the advantage of being in blue, which has more spell copying stuff, and the General finding aspect of it is better in blue, which has less tutor than black.

Has no one thought of panoptic mirror? Imprint this on the mirror is response to it triggering, search for any card that can get rid of your mirror, then search every turn for anything that might be a threat. GG

Powerful affect...but if I'm going to pay 9 mana for an effect, I want it to be something that can win me the game.

To bad its not instant speed. Got to tap out during your turn for this effect would be stronger at instant.
