Top 8 blue cards: 1) Ancestral recall 2) Force of will 3) Time walk 4) Tinker 5) Brainstorm (Could honestly be number 3) 6) Time twister 7) Jace, TMS 8) Mana drain Sorry mystical tutor, gifts ungiven, ponder, mental misstep, merchant scroll and all the others :) And of course the power3: Snapcaster, clique and delver of secrets Edit: Forgot mind's desire and frantic search...also high tide. Blue is pretty good, and the most fun color in magic :) If it was a historical top list, morphling should be there. For several years morphling *WAS* the colour blue.

I've been rewatching some of these top 8 videos and I think probably this one holds up the best to the present day. Certainly the top 3 is still intact and likely the top 5. Pretty impressive considering some really absurd cards got printed for Blue since then, like Cruise, Dig, Narset, Paradoxical Outcome and Urza.

I agree. I'd love to see these lists revisited every 5 years. These lists have changed so much since these videos. There have been so many broken spells with each passing year. Jace is top 8 here and wouldnt even make top 20 blue as of the time i'm typing this comment.

Interesting that Cryptic Command didn't get an honorable mention. Honestly, I don't think it was as good as people said it was. It was just that the format was so creature-heavy that tapping down a bunch of dudes was a good alternate to Dismiss. Next week, how about top 8 cards that got dismissed at first look? Things like Jitte and Tarmogoyf or Spectral Procession, just to name a few.

i've had my playset of force of will since alliances came out, and they're still in mint condition, which one of them is signed by Bob Maher Jr. after he won PT Chicago in 1999 when he cast Force to win game 5 against brian davis, it's valued at 300 dollars

@TheNethertyp He meant that he force of will'd his opponents spell, then force of will'd his previous force of will while on the stack, and then mana drained that last force of will, to give him 5 mana the next upkeep, while still countering his opponents spell. Obviously because, as LSV said himself, the opponents spell cost less than the 5 cmc, so simply mana draining it wouldn't suffice.

No surprise that Timetwister is not on this list. I still can't figure out why Timetwister is considered a Power 9 card, why it's restricted, and even why it's so valuable. I'm surprised Jace is considered better than Windfall, though. Windfall was one of the key cards in a dominant deck for quite some time.

Underdog cards would be great. Tarmogoyf would probably top that list. When it first came out, nobody noticed... Dream Halls was a pretty big underdog when it came out. In fact, I remember the article in Inquest naming it the worst card in Stronghold. A few months later they had to print an article about the "worst" cards to ever get banned. :P
@Pinfeldorf

@TheNethertyp So, his opponent has Gifts Ungiven on the stack. LSV plays Force of Will targeting Gifts Ungiven and Mana Drains it. This will give him 5 colorless mana during his next precombat main phase. He then Force of Wills the Gifts Ungiven. Basically, worst Seething Song ever.

I think if you do "top 8 green cards", you'll have to mention Exploration, Tarmogoyf, Wild Nacatl, Life from the Loam, and Terravore. Those are just format defining green cards.

as stupid as it may sounds with all these insane spells on this list, I think delver needs at least an honorable mention here. 1 Delver alone won me so many games in legacy, its not even funny. Its obv close to OP in legacy and its staple in many decks in modern and vintage, it introduced new viable archetypes and actually warped formats. so yeah delver all the way. ^^

My worst memory of magic: I was just beginning the game and I was going through a pile of bulk cards that someone had just sold (their collection, I assume) to the shop I played in. Lo and behold, I find a mana drain. Not know what it is, I mutter something like, "this seems pretty cool," and put it back. Behind it were three more. Every card in that box was being sold for a quarter.

Top 8 Auras (or local enchantments). I expect this to be a challenge because it is considered one of the worst card types, setting yourself up for getting 2 for 1d, but which aura's get around their inherent drawback the best or are just so good that you are willing to risk it. My list would likely have Faith's Fetters and Rancor on it just off the top of my head.
