What horribly designed card why did they think that card was a good idea. I mean the general concept seems neat but, did they even consider the feasibility of the activated ability. I think just for being such wonky ability it should be banned.

The ability isn't that bad, it's the CMC that kills it, 6 mana???The ability is simply a different version of Merfolk Looter's. You don't like your draw, try again...

Jandor must have been a pretty crappy wizard if this ring was the most powerful piece of equipment he carried on his person.

I like how you get to look at the card before you decide if you want to activate the ring or not.

...and it makes a good target for Animate Artifact! See, 6 mana CC is a boon!

One of the few cards where your opponent is expected to take your word on a hard-to-track quality...unusually trusting for a Magic card :P

I just gave it a .5, and its rating went UP.

Considering madness and blue control decks this is not bad effect, just way too overcosted.

I love the trusting nature of this card! Ah, yep, back than it was all casual play!

6 mana is way too much, of course, but that was also typical. Jalum Tome is arguably the straight-out improved version of this card.

Oddly similar to Obelisk of Alara.

.5 for being black bordered.
