==Notable cards== *<c>Chain Lightning</c>, though almost always inferior to <c>Lightning Bolt</c>, is still well above the curve in direct damage spells, and is a staple inclusion in any burn decks allowed to use it. *<c>Chains of Mephistopheles</c> has a very unique effect in punishing players for using card draw effects. *<c>Eureka</c> is a powerful spell that has been a favorite of many players for years. *<c>Land Tax</c>, a card designed to give opponents a disincentive against destroying lands, is a powerful card-drawing and shuffling engine. *<c>Mana Drain</c> is the most powerful hard [[counter]] ever printed without an alternative cost, and became strictly better than <c>Counterspell</c> once the [[mana burn]] was eliminated in the ''[[Magic 2010]]'' rule changes. Mana Drain was reprinted in the ''[[Iconic Masters]]'' set of November 17, 2017. This was possible because it wouldn't appear in the [[standard]] environment.<ref>{{EzTumblr|http://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/165195073583/dont-get-me-wrong-i-am-super-excited-about-mana|title= I seem to recall you saying that it shouldn't be reprinted.|September 10, 2017}}</ref> *<c>Mirror Universe</c> was a powerful [[finisher]] until the rules changes of ''[[Sixth Edition]]''. *<c>Moat</c> was the primary creature defense card for [[The Deck]] (one of the first-ever tournament-level decks) and is still one of the most effective attack prevention cards ever made. *<c>Nether Void</c> is a powerful tool for "stalling" the game. *<c>Reset</c> has recently gained popularity as a mana-production engine in <c>High Tide</c> decks using only lands and instants. *<c>The Abyss</c> is a powerful anti-creature enchantment that punishes creature-based strategies. *<c>The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale</c> was once on the [[Restricted List]]. It has now begun to find new life in a variety of control decks in the Legacy format. *<c>Underworld Dreams</c> was a powerful enchantment that punished an opponent for drawing cards, something an opponent fundamentally wants to do. It has been reprinted in several sets starting with ''[[Eighth Edition]]'', and has since proven itself not to be as powerful as it once was.
