This
is a super rare Promo card to commemorate Hasbro
buying out Wizards of the Coast. The card
has long been kept a secret....until now. We
have been able to secure one of only 3 copies that
were ever printed. The card, very simple and
even unglued in nature, shows what would be the
future demise of Wizards of the Coast once the
Hasbro Corporate Machine got a hold of it.
The
card is playable, though.
Since "Wizards" and
"Wizards of the Coast Employee" are considered the
same creature type in the Oracle (Look it up!
It is!), this is the most ridiculous anti-Wizard
sideboard card ever made. Even if you're not
running Wizards yourself, all you have to do is
run Riptide Replicator or Volrath's Laboratory to
make them. At 7 mana, you own the game.
Sac 5, and bring in the big bad booty daddy of
hosers. There is nothing your opponent will
be able to do except sit there and cry like a
little girl. They just lose. Within a
couple of turns, the board is clear.
As this card was never
printed in a booster pack, they never had to worry
about it's limited impact, and thus never
playtested it for that environment.
Constructed:
47
Limited: N/A
Current Price:
$14,995 |

This is a MUST PLAY!
I have never felt so strongly about any other
card. If you don't play it in every deck, then you
should just quit Magic. I mean, what the
heck is wrong with you!! I will personally
come track down every player that doesn't have
this in their deck and rip up their Black Lotuses.
Got it, bub? Don't take the car!! You'll
killllll yourself!!!!! Just goes to
show you... uh... whatever.

This card shows the
incalculable costs of Hasbro's buyout of WOTC.
The Wizards deck just took a big hit, as you
can't keep Kai around any more to prevent your
opponent's dirty deeds. And with the loss of
Pokemon, your army takes a further hit. No way I
would play Wizards in any environment with this.
It's just too strong.
Rating: $millions
and millions

Yeah it's rough when people get a hold of stuff
and start throwing their
weight around.

limited - yeah |

Wrath of Hasbro has no
in game effect and if left in play too long it
completely removes any chance we have of seeing
any new sets, let alone the long anticipated
Unglued II.
Constructed If you
already have enough cards and dont feel like
collecting more or keeping up with new sets you
may as well 4.20
Limited Hard to cast
and if you are playing limited chances are you
like to see some new sets 0.00 |

I'm not sure the new
WotC combo deck is Tier I, but this is amazing in
the mirror. A bit overpriced, but it gets the job
done.
Ltd.: Combo is
impossible to pull off unless you happen to draft
all 12 pieces.
Constructed: 3
Limited: 0.5 |
