No, that's what I got for coming second.

i'm thinking about writing an article about how much of a badman i am, do you think anyone would publish it?

 

actually i could do some bullshit gavin verhey style article but have every vignette be about strippers. i reckon that would prolly be published if i kinda loosely tied it into some advice about mulligans or some shit like that

[Dan Barrett]

Pretty sure I can find somewhere that will publish it for you, yes.

It's a $20 card at maximum. Don't waste your money now.

 

In standard, It hits the board and Liliana Vesses you. Whoop-di-doo. Just attack the player and don't worry about him. Unlike Gideon who FORCES you to attack him, Karn just watches creatures run passed him straight for his owner's dome.

 

If he exiles one of your permanents, your opponent just cast Spine of Ish ah. Whoop-di-doo. How many decks play that piece of crap?

 

Outside of Standard, it's unplayable (other than EDH and Cubes OBV).

 

Don't be fooled. It's not that good.

Karn will be played in Standard, but $45-50 is pretty bananas as far as I can tell. In control mirrors he is a lot more powerful than Spine of Ish Sah, and I can see him finding a home in sideboards for control mirrors, or in something like Eldrazi Green.
