    The most professional thing I think I've ever seen in your videos is you talking about Uktabi Orangutan without mentioning the monkeys in the background.

    So many great cards and beautiful packs to be opened over the years. But, the best pull from a pack I'll ever have was a vampiric tutor in April of 1997. Visions and Mirage mean a lot to me.

      Visions is the set that introduced Sisay and the Weatherlight. Mirage already introduced Teferi. This block certainly introduced a large number of memorable characters.

    back in the day i would man-o-war my ornguntan back into my hand all the time. and fireblast is one of the best red cards ever printed, easily a game ender all the time you would rarely ever hard cast it. played four of them so it was easy to slam your op with a ball lightning + lightning bolt for 9 on turn four and usually finish the game with two fireblasts when your tapped out since jackal pup and mogg fanatic. god have mercy if its ever reprinted into standard or modern it will get the banhammer i guarantee it.

    Quirion Ranger also lets you get 2 mana out of 1 land. You tap your land for mana, return it to hand, then play your land/a land. You’d rather draw a land and play it, you’d prefer to get 2 mana that way. Someone actually beat me in a tournament with Quirion ranger. I pulled out forest-walk creature out of my sideboard. He used ranger to return all his forests to his hand, removing my creatures forest walk. I didn’t see it coming and attack right into it.

    This set really drove home the difference (back then) between the 'good' players and 'casual'. Casual players loved creatures, always have, and back then creatures sucked. But Relentless Assault... It was a $20 bill during that window between release and tournament legality. Vamp Tutor... $10 maybe? But then the decklists started to appear, and Assault slowly drifted into 'meh'...
    Back then creatures were secondary. Even stompee was all about Winter Orb and 16 lands when everyone else was running 24.

It’s not Great in all those 4 decks, the drawback is still kinda there, but it’s been used in those kinds of prison decks. Not sure if anyone has sideboarded it or played it as Defende against prison.
