Telemin Performance - 3UU
Sorcery (R)
Target opponent reveal cards from the top of his/her library until a creature card has been revealed. Put all non-creature cards revealed this way into that player's graveyard, then put the creature card into play under your control.
Art crop:
Definitely not a Bribery but *may* find its niche use against certain control decks.
Hope you like it.

If there's any T2 deck that would play this, it's Sanity Grinding.

Several years ago, WotC apparently surveyed Magic players across the globe. They found that people liked turning things sideways, and hated LD. This is the result:
This card is printed in the wrong era. It preys on decks that plays a bunch of control spells and only a handful of bomby creatures. Those decks don't really exist nowadays in Standard, but against those decks this card could be better than Traumatize as it might mill more cards and even get you a creature.
Then again, said decks are usually full of counterspells so this would never resolve anyway. =/
Bomb against control decks, since they play maybe 12 creatures. Beyond that it mills. You people are spoiled, because this is a decent card. It mills them (for possibly a small amount) and snags something our of their deck.
It's understandable blue control players would be shocked and in denial at the notion of this card, since their decks have been dominating multiple formats for an eternity yet they've curiously never once had to deal with any counter-hosers that weren't ineffectual, narrow CRAP.
If milling deck ever becomes a contender, this is the bomb sideboard card to bring in against a mostly creatureless deck... otherwise yeah, not that interesting. May be playable in EDH as a backup Bribery which is at least more likely than not to hit against your more timmyish decks (e.g. anyone playing Mayael)
We've only got one image and a tag line to go on. For all we know the portrait could just have been 'taken' on a gloomy day and the world could be populated by Pegasus's, squid-folk, and bear people who sing songs about friendship and ride rainbow rafts of chocolate.
Sideboard ageins oath??? He he. that would be prizeless. "Your running just one creature? Now i have it. Good luck" No not realy, but would be fun to ruin some creatureless or very creature light decks day with this, but yeah worse than Bribery.

And now...the dancing banana
I think this is pretty cool. Its a random creature and some mill for 5 mana. At best you could rip something HUGE on turn 5 and mill some other key spells. Its a pretty solid deal.
I still think it's a cool card. I like the element of either completely game breaking or complete crap. I'd draft it. Nothing better than ousting some removal and grabbing a creature that's not yours, especially if it happens to be a bomb. Would be fun to grab charnel hoard wurm and then get it back every turn. Ah...me and my pipedreams.
Again a niche card. Conflux seems to have a lot of these. Usually, it's just a completely crappy card. Still, against certain decks it is instant win if it resolves.
The thing is, decks without creatures are usually combo decks that aim at going off (or just plain loosing) before you can manage your 5 mana in your blue control deck to cast this.
Perhaps it'll turn out to be a sleeper, but I don't like it much.

Against a control deck it's nice, particularly given that at worst with QnT you'll get a finks or a mulldrifter and at best you could get an Oona(or other bomby finisher), it will also tend to mill for at least a few cards. The most fun you could have is against one of the planeswalker decks where this would mill just about everything and even if they had a creature it would likely be a Realm Razor to win the game with.
All that said, constructed iffy, limited i'd probably play with it in sealed because while at worst you mill nothing and get a bear at best you could mill 4-5 cards and steal your opponents biggest bomb, in draft I wouldn't pick it high but if it came round a 2nd time i'd be tempted.
This card reminds me a lot of Extirpate, in that it will turn out to be horrible because people know about it and plan accordingly. If the use of it picks up enough to prove it is powerful, I guarantee you'll see creature light decks pack smaller utility guys such as Kitchen Finks in Standard or perhaps Sakura-Tribe Elder in Extended so as to not be blown out while minimizing the impact to the deck's power.
Odds are this isn't really all that good anyway and nobody is going to care, but in the event that it turns out to be great this won't really work for more than 1 tournament.

How do you figure Extirpate was "horrible"? Yes, it made people worked their decks around so they wouldn't be blown out by losing just one card, but it still did its job. It still took out Mannequin targets, Reveillark targets, Pickles locks, Rune Snags, etc. It wasn't horrible at all, unless your definition of horrible is "pretty good'.

Yay, you spent 5 on a FoD or a Hell's Thunder. Aren't you efficient?

Anyways yeah this is only good against decks that run 1-2 creatures both of the finisher variety if you can resolve it.
It would have been good against UB Teachings from last meta assuming you won the counter war.
Feel free to bid on my cards here!
