Synod Sanctum       1 (Mirrodin Uncommon) 

2, T: Remove target permanent you control from the game

2, Sacrifice Synod Sanctum: Return to play under your control all cards removed from the game with Synod Sanctum

This card is very underrated in Constructed. Card of the day December 10th reviews have shown that this card is pretty useless.

In my opinion this card could be combined with:

Leonin Abunas serves GREAT purpose with this card

Blistering Firecat (Skizzik, Ball Lightning and etc.)

Wrath of God (likely when you have one or two creatures and they have a barrack)

With Card Control (a until end of turn control card, i.e Chamber of Manipulation)
and the plus is....the state based effect doesnt end at end of turn...woot! i can dream about taking a leveler...

Permanent Defense, an In response to your opponent destroying your creatures (say goodbye to your Exalted Angel..oh i think not! drop a Dark Ritual...take 1 burn. XD)

and i think that covers all the colour versatility.

Its LOW CC allows a turn one drop but the key is strategy...NEVER tap out when you have a bunch of cards on it...its obvious that you should never tap out period but if you notice you have to play something, play it.  A lot of people underestimate this card but it has won me a few games with the lethal combos i throw in...

Unlike other cards, you can ACTUALLY use 2 of these...make 2 piles of cards and choose some mid game choices...deploy one set of cards and savour the rest...
