10 CMC

Can destroy all lands, leaving many players without options.
Has 7 power, making it the most offensive Myojin.

Would be an awesome Reanimator target if it weren't for that annoying "if you played it from your hand" bit. As it is, the cost is just absurd.

@Gezus82:

It won't actually counter anything, however. The other player can still tap his lands in response to the ability being put on the stack; there is nothing that can counter a mana source ability, which is what tapping a land for mana is.

Easily my favorite Myojin in both function and appearance.
Best used when following a board sweep effect of some kind, leaving everyone manaless and you with a 7-power beatstick.

This guy is disgusting with pariah's shield. Play him in a r/g/w deck with 2 Privileged Positions, and just sit back and laugh.

"Destroy all lands" always means "you win the game" if you know what you're doing. There's a reason that armageddon will never be reprinted. It's a perfect win condition packed with 7 indestructible power...if it didn't cost so much it would be the best of the myojins, but the green and white ones are better.

AUKingClow: life's web is an 8/8.

@EnV:
Terra Eternal works for all lands. Which means this has no synergy whatsoever with it :P
I'm hoping you meant that Terra Eternal is good against this guy.

In my play group, this Myojin is known better as "Myojin of the Rage Quit" than it is by its actual name - and for good reason. Everything is ruined if his ability resolves.

Hmmm....Good game finisher, if you have the supplies to back this up

It would be funny to have this, the ability to make 4 mana from arties/creatures, and a Contagion Clasp. Proliferate and destroy all lands every round :)

Fist of Suns lets you cast if from your hand for {WUBRG} instead of {7RRR} and you'll still get your precious divinity counter.

even though it's not necessary I feel obligated to mention artifact lands and darksteel forge in case you we're feeling queezy about giving up your own lands.

This Myojin has the most rage that it is possible to have.

That's a lot of rage.

It's probably not good for your heart.

@Condor_96:
You don't even need to leave red for proliferate if you run Volt Charge. So go ahead, have your cake and eat it too.

It's funny to me how all the other Myojin have a sort of duality going on: the White one negates the advantage the Green one gives you, and the Black one negates the advantage the Blue one gives you. This one is just like: Lands are gone. You have no defense.

Contagion Engine

Let's hear it for PROLIFERATING ARMAGEDDON!!

Also, this is the most expensive monored spell in the game. There are only three others with CMC 10, but those have {9}{R} (Greater Gargadon) and {8}{R}{R} (Decree of Annihilation and Dragon Tyrant) casting costs.

I still think land destruction is an anti-fun ability.
Why could they not give the red Myojin something fun, like doubling all damage your creatures and spells deal until the end of turn, or dealing 10 damage to all other creatures. :(

Proliferate. Myojin of ANGRY Soup Nazi.

NO LANDS FOR YOU!

(compare to Myojin of Soup Nazi: No Creatures For You!)

Fun combo with Blasphemous Act in multiplayer. There will generally be enough creatures for the Act to cost {R}, and then you can just drop this baby and pop the counter for the win.

7 power? He's still able to smack up stuff normally. Nice.

EDIT: Also, just realised if anyone gets smart and tries to Dismember him or something he can just nuke every land in response. So he does sit there being one awkward little time bomb.

Smokebraider
Soulbright Flamekin
Koth of the Hammer
etc..

Koth himself makes this a T5 drop if all of your lands are mountains and you used no other ramping. Soulbright makes this guy T8 with no other ramp, but with other ramp could easily bring this online T4-T5.

I.E.
T2: Smokebraider
T3: Smokebraider, Soulbright
T4: Drop Myojin by using 2 mountains plus activating Soulbright's ability three times with the other 2 mountains and your two Smokebraiders

If you want easy red proliferating, use the 2 mana throne of geth so you don't need more mana on the turn you drop this guy.

Use Dark Ritual and an Onyx Goblet to get out Rakdos, Lord of Riots turn 3.
Swing with Rakdos and tap the Goblet to get out the Myojin on turn 4, then blow up all the land.
Play a land, keep swinging with Rakdos and the Myojin plus another terrifying baddie you can now cast for one mana... while your opponents cry themselves to death.

Hilarious in EDH if you time him just right.
