Legacy- Panoptic mirror + imprint Glimpse the Unthinkable. 10 cards each upkeep? Plus more from other mill card? Say goodnight.

This plus Time Walk is the greatest combo in all of magic, this plus Time Warp is the best in EDH and it is just the greatest card in existence in my point of view, as a combo player and long time tournament goer. I have been playing since '94 and this is my favorite card out there.

I'm sorry, but I think that Panoptic Mirror + Time Warp (Time Walk) is the best of all...just my opinion :)

This card combined with Paradox Haze would double the effect per turn, whatever you were to combo with it. So you would get an additional (insert imprinted card here) per turn per Paradox haze in play. The effect says during your upkeep!

Just use any of the "Wish" cards on it, then your possibilities are endless :3

Try using this in conjunction with paradox haze which gives you 2 upkeeps/turn effectively doubling the effect of the card. Also could use inflame or crushing pain to optimize damage in a burn deck.

Panoptic mirror + time warp = infinite turns? I ordered it to use on diabolic ( diabloic not demonic) tutor but i might just have to make a deck using the panopitc/ time warp combo.

"Soren, you idiot!! Whenever you imprint a spell with X for part of the mana cost, X is always ZERO!!! Sure, you can get an artifact card every turn, an artifact card with a mana cost of ZERO, that is!!!!!! God, that is a great combo, NOT!! Hey bonehead, if you're going to write a review, do it right!!!"

X is zero when you imprint the instant or sorcery, but when you play it, the X becomes a variable digit, just like when you play it from your hand. So essentially you can imprint a fireball onto it for one, and then every turn if you choose to play it you tap the amount of mana you want into it.

Works great in a syphon deck with consume spirit, drain life, syphon life, and corruption.

Imprint some of the Zero cost sorceries - the ones you normally would have to suspend. They have no converted mana cost so they can be imprinted for for free. Ancestral Vision - target player draws 3 cards. Restore Balance - very evil. Wheel of Fate - each player discards his or her hand and then draws seven cards. Hypergenesis - just mean... "Starting with you, each player may put an artifact, creature, enchantment, or land card from his or her hand into play. Repeat this process until no one puts a card into play." Might seem messed up but it can speed the game up.

You could do it with Isochron Scepter but you'd have to pay the mana cost every time you used it. Isochrons would still be good in a Panoptic Mirror deck. You might need it to play Counterspell, or my favorite, Hesitate.

You could use something like Donate and then give them a card that does them wrong, like Bronze Bombshell. If you had a way to make tokens of it you could give them 7 damage every upkeep.

You could really make it fun with some old casual cards. Coin flip cards like Game of Chaos or Squee's Revenge would be fun.

Simply amazing, a card truly worthy of being protected... imprint sudden spoiling on there for 3 mana and your opponants can become 0/2's on your turn every time.

I can only think of a few cards to use with it, but- hell, everything works with this card! One of my favorites is Feudkiller's Verdict, because you gain ten life and get a 5/5 token every turn! You could also use this with Evangelize, Time Stretch, an Epic (the Epic won't trigger because it's removed from the game), or anything else that would get you closer to winning the game. The only possible problem is that it's an artifact, and so many cards can deal with it. otherwise, it's amazing, because if you imprint more than one card, you can choose whatever card suits the situation best!

Even basic uncommons like chromatic escape (opponents won't be able to attack you) work good with this. Such a good combo card that it will probably be restricted after a while...

What about panoptic mirror and four paradox haze, that way you get to play a sorcery or instant five times, or five different spells in one turn, for free!

What an amazing card! The ability to copy an Instant or Sorcery every turn is deadly and there are limitless possibilities. A personal favorite is copying Glimpse the Unthinkable, which causes the opponent's deck to lose ten cards. Such an effect each turn will often win the game unless they have an immeadiate cure. Damnation and Wrath of God are choices as well, though they aren't nearly as effective. Token Generating spells are a blast too! There are really no limits for a card like this. Be creative and everyone can find a good use for this card that fits their playstyle.

Panoptic Mirror + any of the beacons. (Beacon of Immortality, Destruction, Tomorrows, Unrest, Creation)
You'll never run out of cards, every upkeep you'll add a copy to your deck, as per the beacon's effect.

Or, any other instant or sorcery, the most interesting I've found being Shahrazad. LOTS of Duels inside Duels.

ok this card has almost limitless possibilitys but one of my favorites is to put out a frostwielder and imprint crushing pain whenever a creature is played it can easily be not only destroyed but due to frostwielder's ability, its removed from the game

People, people....Panoptic Mirror equipped with Time walk....or Time warp. Every turn you get to take another turn on your next turn....it's godly. How can your opponent win when they don't even get to have a turn?

It would work with any card...but has anyone noticed that you can imprint multiple cards on the mirror? Just imprint putrefy(or any other creature destroy), an extra turn card, and disenchant. You can then handle almost any card in the game of Magic: The Gathering.

Such simple ideas! None of you are really thinking hard enough... Try Panoptic and Fatigue? Opponent doesnt draw another card for the rest of the game. Imprint Walk of the Aeons. Infinite turns. Imprint Dichotomancy. Eventually control the opponents entire deck...Imprint moment of silence! Opponent never gets a combat phase! Think big people! Think big!

This is a great card, but Ares Wargod has it wrong. Book burning does not deal 6 damage to a player and remove the top 6 cards of the library from the game. It does either or. "Any player may have Book Burning deal 6 damage to him or her. If no one does, put the top six cards of target player's library into his or her graveyard.

Panoptic mirror plus beacon of tommorows equals infinite turns for you which is completely unfair but it still works. If you think that is cheating the use it with beacon of immortality for infinte life or beacon of unrest for indestuctible creatures.

This card lets you play your favorite Instant or Sorcery spell EVERY TIME IT'S YOUR TURN. There are so many different ways to cripple your opponent. Natural Spring can make you gain 8 life every turn, Recollect can return a card from your grave yard every turn, Govern the Guildless can steal one of your opponents creatures every turn, Exhaustion will make it so your opponents creatures NEVER untap, Creeping Mould will destroy a land, artifact, or enchantment every turn.... there are so many possibilities its unreal. If you really want to screw it to them just play a card like BEACON OF TOMORROWS and they will never get another turn. This card is one of the BEST COMBO CARDS that I have come across.

An awesome card, get free copies of your favorite instant or sorcery every upkeep! This cards in underrated, the possibilities are almost limitless.
Use two with Plow Under and Creeping Mold, this combo can slow your opponent down so much. Or you can use Beacon of Creation (w/ Coat of Arms) and get an army of Insects. OR if you want to make everyone mad, use it with Beacon of Tomorrows.

now alone it is useless but of course it is used to make your other cards better
How I use it is ether I time warp or traumtize(I have 4 raven guild masters in along with other nasty cards)
but ether way you could own or get murdered(number of times i have imprinted time warp then lost control of panoptic :)

hello, here I am again!

Let's get straight to the point! Panotic Mirror is, of course, a good magic card. But what makes it good is the combination of two cards... Panotic Mirror and Reshape! They make and excellent team!
Play Panotic Mirror, and use its ability to imprint an instant or a sorcery, imprint Reshape! Then at any time during your upkeep you can take an artefact card from your library into play, how cool is that!!! of course there is a lot of other combinations but this was just a "sample".

Once again, a review from the one and only: Søren Crawack!

hey voro. let the others put the X cost cards on there mirror, and then KICK THERE ASS!!! if they dont know, dont tell them, you can win many games because of error. thats how i have.
remember, you can print as many cards on it as you want, so if you want to protect it, do this, there is a white card (old school) called fountain watch, which protects all of your artifacts, as long as it remains untapped, so what i do is use diplomatic immunity on my fountain watch, and then lookout!!! all that can be done is global effects. and if your playing diplomatic immunity, you better be playing counter. the two cards that i imprint are evil, one, glimpse the unthinkable, and haunting echoes. grind 10, then next turn remove a ton!!! most people scoop after about the 2 or third time. another one that i like is fatigue, dont let them draw. again scoop phase usually happens!!!!!!!
tramatize also is good.
so is any suspend card, or mana short.
