".. Then i used polluted delta and looked on in horror as the bottom card of my deck stuck to the playmat as it had done about five times that tournament. Then i scooped it into my hand untapped my lands and played the batterskull post combat. I remember uttering some comment like “Oh my God i’m going to be the next bertoncini”."
I'm liking Brimstone Volley. Gives red decks more potential mind games as it makes people think twice before blocking 1/1s attacking into 6/6s (hello titans). It also gives mid/late game top-decked one drops a better chance of being something other than chaff. Pretty easy to meet the conditions too, especially for red decks.
It's a rare. It's the front card in one of the intro packs, so I assume this means that it's the foil rare in said pack. However, having this guy flying around at uncommon would be...kind of crazy, in limited.
Ah, forgot about that, my apologies. I was looking at the attached image, and the expansion symbol looked pretty silver to me.
Still pretty good for limited or the kitchen table. I liked it better at uncommon though.
Why would anyone want to run Leveler + Laboratory Maniac (Levelab?) over Pestertwin/Exarchtwin in Modern? Leveler costs 5. Laboratory Maniac doesn't even have Flash, and it dies to Lightning Bolt/Punishing Fire. Plus you need to draw a card from an empty library, you don't even win outright just from having one. I'm just not seeing it being a competitive combo.
Vendilion Clique player here, FYI I do not run the PolyEmrakul package.

Does the Dark Imposter get a +1/+1 counter?
I'm thinking yes, as exiling and putting a counter counts as one action when it resolves, regardless if it exiles a creature or not.
Too bad post rotation they'll most probably also be carrying a Sword of Feast and Famine with them when they swing..
+1 to Brimstone Volley.
I swear the vamp in the front looks just like Tom Cruise in Interview with the Vampire.

Elite Inquisitor kiiinda fills in this slot though.. Especially the (epic) Game Day alt-art one.
But even then, I think I still wouldn't play it.
