Shouldn't this creature be of type Human Gamer?

Quicksilver Amulet! But really, I'm a Timmy at heart.

Wizards several times stated that Elvish Piper was inspired by this card.
I love Un-card for both being entertaining and partially serving as avant-garde of future Magic cards.
And I agree with mirrorman, yet the problem is that Un-cards don't get any Oracle updates ;)
I'm a Johnny at heart, but Timmy gaming can be great fun as well!

elvish piper and quicksilver amulet are both better than timmy, the elf because it's cheaper and the amulet because it's colorless.

edit: you don't gotta tap this one so...

Mirrorman: Back when this card was printed, Legend was a subtype, not an supertype. Additionally, WotC doesn't bother updating the un sets when the game changes. Elsewhere in the set, there's a card that's still listed as an interrupt, FFS.

Timmy's are my favorite type of gamer. Spike's however are boring. "well that card can be killed by this." Shut up spike.

Haha... he's still just a "legend." Cool stuff.

Timmy refuses to be defeated by these silly, encroaching "new rulings" you speak of.

Between the three, I think I personally lean somewhere right between Johnny, Combo Player and Timmy, Power Gamer.
However, Spike, Shot Elder is my preferred card.

If he were designed today, he'd be a planewalker.

Best way to get into the game? Be 9 when you get into the game and get into it right when the first Un set comes out. Timmy, Quicksilver Amulet, Elvish Piper, and Incoming! have always had a special place in my heart for the hilarious shenanigans that ensued when playing my younger brothers at the time.

Timmy is a 1/1? Oh the irony!

What a fun card. I like how it isn't utterly outclassed by Elvish Piper due to the possibility of activating the ability multiple times.

Lol at that dragon smirk. Would love to see them in planeswalker version.
I wonder if they would make another wacky set.
