Card of the Day Reviews 

Tim Stoltzfus Shahrazad

What?? That’s really the best word to describe this card. It has a cool flavor to it, but was made back in Magic’s early days when things were much more innocent and we didn’t have ways to make our opponents flip the table in frustration via tricks like Isochron Scepter. It’s a fun card to goof around with, but really, doesn’t have much applicable value to any format that people play regularly. As for limited play, well, if you are playing limited with Arabian Nights, you are a better human than I.

Constructed -- 1
Casual – 3.5
Limited – 1

Shahrazad - Rare

hey peoples, today we have the crazy, kooky, and widely hated Shahrazad

the reason why people hate this card is because of its tendency to create very long games, but here (exclusively for you pojo viewers) I have a secret 4 card combo, that will make the opponent concede 99.99% of the time (the other .01% is from disruption). and here it is:
1. play panoptic mirror and imprint Shahrazad
2. play isochron scepter and imprint fork/twincast

whala 2 subgames of magic a turn, don't you just love it ^.^ just imagine the mirror match...

Ratings:
constructed- 2/5 not much use for it now adays
limited- 4/5 half of your opponents life gone? sure ill take it (or a tie from extremely long games)
casual- ?/5 it depends if you are playing it or not. for you= 5/5 for your opponent -1000000000000000000000000000000000000000/5

final thought- tomorrow: one of the craziest cards yet
