Much more powerful in a lot of RDW and red control decks than people often give it credit for.

Powerful finisher. Pure red.

littlebeast is right this should work great with Magosi, pretty much the only thing that does.
Anything that prevents you from losing for a turn combos wonderfully with this. See Lich's Mirror and Angel's Grace.
the isochron scepter combo only adds value when some sort of combo is already in place though.
Lastly this has been reprinted as Warrior's Oath and Last Chance.

I'd give anything to know what these guys are listening to, they're rocking hard!

@Tynansdtm:

RDW stands for Red Deck Wins. Not sure what that entails, exactly, but there you go.

With Simian Spirit Guide or Lotus Petal, I can cast this on the first turn!


Definitely NOT the card you want in hand when the opponent Mindslavers you.

Sundial of the infinite, enough said.

I don't think Magosi, the Waterveil would work in this situation, as you still must end your turn to begin the next turn given to you by Magosi, and at the end of the 2nd turn (given by Final Fortune) going into the 3rd turn (by Magosi) you'd lose the game. Assuming I'm not missing anything.

Sundial of the Infinite and Platinum Angel would do the job though.

I don't understand how very few ppl here get this card... This thing is a bomb! Don't bother trying to Johnny-abuse this thing unto infinity! Just cast it to get that last bit of damage thru! Its a red frickin Time Walk!

They basically printed Time Walk, with red seasoning, in the Mirage block. Recognize!

I even run this in EDH. Command the board? Ready to alpha strike? How about World At War followed by this? Say hello, to goodbye.

Sometimes, one extra turn is all it takes.
