Holy Crap check this guy out

First spoiler of Rise of the Eldrazi

[lem0nhead]

O yeah.... Discuss....

[FM]

Right now I want to say... fake. But it might actually not be, considering the rise in power recently seen in creatures. However, 8 (there's a land that reduces his cost) seems awfully low for what it does.

[lem0nhead]

Yes Eye of Ugin from Worldwake, i have 1 and im trying to get 3 more as the price is already sky rocketing, cos depsite your "feelings" FM, its a real one. Was given to a genuine MTG source on the net by wizards.

Thats why I want you to discuss. My feelings are WOW.

Holy carp (yes, carp). I need 4. You need 4. You, there, who has stumbled on this Forum by accident looking for magic tricks on the internet and doesn't even play Magic, you, too, need 4. End discussion.

im guessing this is a good card...

[FM]

Yes, it is. You need 4.

It's okay. I've already played a game with it, and it is simply ok. A game winner for sure, but no more than BSA for BSA junk. If it gets anymore support though, watch out.

EDIT: I played this with Green Ramp and Blue Draw to get it out as fast as possible... turn 7 is my record. Too slow at the moment, though only barely.

DOUBLE EDIT: Yes, it is real...http://www.wizards.com/magic/tcg/products.aspx?x=mtg/tcg/products/riseoftheeldrazi

wow. That is the most op card I have seen. I haven't seen too many cards recently though

[Witchkingx5]

This one is definitely one thing: overpowered.

You said turn 7, sharkey? Turn seven is unbelievably slow for just a creature. I mean, depending on the format, I can drop this guy on turn 2 or 3 for sure. Without any problems. Chance is 99,99%.

So, I just repeat what I've said before: O-V-E-R-P-O-W-E-R-E-D!

He makes for a better Tinker target than Darksteel Colossus, btw. Of course, Doom Blade DOES kill him, but still, if you cheated him into play you most likely have a way to take advantage of him. And if you actually cast him, he's well worth it. Pure card advantage any way you see it. And also, he makes for a fine addition to Extended's Hypergenesis.

You could elvish piper this guy in on turn 3 if u did it right. Or using eye of ugin and elves it could be turn 4/5 easy.

Im so going to abuse this man.

[sharkey]

Ok, to clear some things up:

He dies to removal of any sort, including Day of Judgement and also the legendary rule (Clone!).

Tinker does not work on him. He is not an artifact.

If you use a card like elvish piper, you do not draw 4 cards.

He is good, but not WAY OVERPOWERED (unless your meta has all mill). He is currently balanced to not that good.

[Witchkingx5]

Who said something about Elvish Piper? I did not. I say Oath of Druids ftw! (OK, tyrant oath is still better, but in casual, you'll die against him!)

[FM]

Summoning Trap also works well enough, albeit slow. I don't meant this guy is awesome because he draws cards, but mainly due to Anihilator 4. If you combo him out early, 1 swing means game.
