Not a straight bad card. Very good against monoblue and may win you the game later on. But usually it's not good enough to be used.

Nooo!

Poor, poor Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge! What an awful way to die.

I like the Visions color hosers. Unlike SOME others(glares at Mirage color hosers) they actually have an effect on other colors.

This one's pretty useful cause it deals damage, but it does it slowly and has C-upkeep above all that. Not exactly the best.

It's a lot pricier than its compatriot Elephant Grass, but the effect is really something. If you can keep this in play for just a few turns while you attack with some persistent attackers it can really help wear someone down. With 1/1 creatures in particular it gets very painful, since every block costs them just as much life as if they hadn't blocked.

This card has won me games on multiple occasions. It's only powerful in the right deck, but in that deck it's amazing.

@yyukichigai: Then you may as well use Raid Bombardment, which doesn't have cumulative upkeep and deals one damage for each attacker, not just the blocked ones.

If I'm gonna be attacking full-out every turn anyway, I'll take Bedlam over this.
