Let me put it this way - if you can make this card work, then you deserve to win the game :)

Play it using maelstrom archangel

Difficult to use but not impossible. Turn 1: land Turn 2 : land, rampant growth Turn 3 : land, Harrow to get domain Turn 4 : Maelstrom Archangel Turn 5 : swing and coalition victory comes in for free, with all basic lands and a 5 color creature to win.

easiest combo from Shadowmoor and eventide. Swirling Spriggan and Prismatic Omen.

Transguild Courier + Dual Lands = Awesome...except it's so expensive...if you're playing against a blue deck it'll be countered, no question about it, and the conditions are still difficult to meet even with the courier.

This card can in fact work pretty well in standard with terramorphic expanses, diabolic tutors, lilliana, maralen, horde of notions, and a lot of other little shenannagins. i recommend predominately a black/blue control deck with tons of card draw, tendrils/CS, and counter spells specifically to counter the counter spells on your horde and victory. wont win you a PTQ, but it may enrage some FNM playerrs. If you want another cheap win deck, try barren glory. No one expects the spanish inquisition.

This is an awesome...in conjunction with the dual Ravnica Lands, Transguild Courier, Flagstone of Trokair and the Planar of Chaos Dragons...takes time to set up but with 4 Overrules to counter spells and gain life...it works pretty well....It has won me several battles when my life point has been low...

Transguild Courier, Harrow, Rampant Growth.

I ask you, can you actually pull this off without getting stomped on, flown over, countered to your death, or even being milled? This card is rather bad for most, although I suppose it does turn the gears of a Johnny though...

can you say fastbond and natural affinity....three to five turn win!

It is average if you wish to build a deck around it. Dual lands and farseek can contribute to the land part while Transguild Courier can fullfill the creature part.

Not likely to win you the game. If you really want to pull this off use the dual lands from the beta expansion. Thawing Glaciers can also help you bring them into play. Then you have to have a very multi-creature deck (I personally reccomend slivers).

Use Crystal Quarry to get it out and Gaea's Cradle to take care of the lands and pattern of rebirth (4) to get out the creatures

Dual lands, multicolored creatures (Sliver Queen), 8 mana! Watch out for your opponentīs power sink...
