One of mine...

I think you mean "PoN", but it seems to me that "PwN" is more appropriate
(the 'w' stands for 'win', I think)

I think that WoTC felt that a lot of the players thought Standard was becoming mundane and a joke from all the nuked cards floating around. R&D took a vacation, and MaRo just started reprinting things.
My favorite is off of cremate. Cremation of the dead is not a religious ritual in Ravnica. It's a business designed to keep the Golgari from growing in numbers.

I like Sky Swallower. The other day I was playing a friend and he drops that bad boy on the table with a huge grin on his face, not realizing the card didn't have "nonland" written on it. Plus, it just seems to fit the drawback so well.

It is just to cool not to like. Also if this ever comes on a test I know the answer. If they ask to show my work though I am screwed.

Izzet flavor text is the best.

Niv-Mizzet's flavor text is “(Z–>)90º – (E–N²W)90ºt = 1”
Short answer: turn it sideways.
Long answer:
Z-> turned 90 degrees is "NIV".
N^2 is NN.
E-NNW turned 90 degrees is "MIZZE"
Put it all together and you get...
Niv-Mizzet = 1, or in other words "Niv-Mizzet is #1" or "Niv-Mizzet is The One".
Because Niv-Mizzet is just that awesome.
Not neccesarily the best flavor text ever, but definitely the most creative...
