A perfect example of how Wizards tried to dumb down the game for Portal. Note how it fails to mention regeneration, and specifies that your creatures are destroyed as well.

When I first started back in the day I pulled one of these. The Jerk store owner talked me into trading it for a bunch of junk commons. Im glad he lost the shop.

@Tiggurix: It's the worst printing of the card because of how stupidly Wizards dumbed the wording down for Portal, not because of the flavor text.
The flavor text comes from one of Shakespeare's greatest plays. Do not *** with Shakespeare.

What are all of you talking about? This is easily the best printing. The best picture, big bold words, unique wording. If you all don't want yours, I'll take them off your hands.

Yea, I wish they had put this flavor text in the regular editions. Too late now though, since it's not being printed anymore.

Since when did Wrath of God need flavour text? Easily the worst printing of this great card.
@Azazyel: Of course its dumbed down rules text is also foul, but Wrath of God never needed this, in my opinion, unfitting flavour text. Also, Shakespeare wrote plenty of stupid things, such as "silence is the perfectest herald of joy". WTF? You can't bend "perfect", dumbass.

Saying Wrath of God doesn't need flavor text isn't insulting Shakespeare, or the flavor text for that matter. Wrath of God is a beautifully simple and elegant card that does best with as little extraneous text as possible.
This card is cluttered, which is the exact opposite of how Wrath of God should look.

i agree that the wording is bad and that it shouldn't have flavor text, but i do like the picture.

This is the strangest reminder text ever. The coolest still belongs to Obsidian Fireheart.
P.S. I know how you feel, Xtwistedsoul. My local store owner bought my foil gideon for $20. Only later did I realize it did not sell for $40, but $80.

Combine this version of wrath with R&D's Secret Lair to nail indestructible creatures.

While I don't have anything against Shakespeare, the flavor text on this version of the card sounds like it would fit better on a black or red card.
