if you run a B/R burn or a B/R in general NEVER hesitate to pop a few of these in the deck, or even the sideboard. Take it from a pro, if you run any black deck but a discard deck, this card can win you games. Also, if you play the B/R deck previously mentioned, all red players know what i mean by "BBAAALLL LIIGGHHTTNING" ;) Got the picture? Any black deck should find this card lurking in its depths, because there is nothing like getting through a beefy for 2-mana

used to think about this card in conjunction with 'phyrexian negator' but it just wasn't that good of a combo.....
