That'd suck if someone Rerouted that.

I just wanna point out that although the original post says other than the Power Nine, the list includes Ancestral Recall and Time Walk.

@SplodyCopter

I should've clarified more, the "other than the Power 9" cards was in reference to the conversation I had with my friends. You're allowed to vote for the Power 9 if you want to,its up to you.

My Three:

Vampire Nighthawk

Dark Depths

Dark Ritual

oh! then for sure dat mox should be number one.

In my meta there are also a few cards worth a mention:

Mirrorweave

Swords to Plowshares

Black Sun's Zenith

All cards that works well against just about anything. +1 from me :)

For pure nostalgia I have to say the Serra Angel gets my first vote.

Looking at the card now she's not all that great, but when I was 12 it was the game changing ultimate zOMG moment of countless casual matches with my buddies.

Today in standard I love my Blightsteel Colossus falling on turn 5-6 with Kuldotha Forgemaster with the help of a Mox Opal.

Add in the Slayers' Stronghold to haste it and is a fun rouge deck.

My $0.02 for 5 awesome cards.

My personal favorite power cards are as follows:

Back in the old days, Word of Command was the king card to have when playing black. Play any one spell of opponents choosing targets and mana tapped. Fireball a players own creatures.

Better is Balance. Evens out the playing field if you are getting the shaft. But really gives it to you if you have more land than a single opponent.

I think the best though has to be Nevinyrral's Disk. Resets the battlefield to a clean slate. Even gives your opponent a 1 round warning, but is great to have out as a threat if the battlefield gets too one-sided against you.

What about Hero of Bladehold ? Best card ever

It's a tie between these three: Brainstorm, Dark Ritual, Demonic Tutor

right now jms, Force of Will and Tinker are winning and for good reason so theres my top 3

Force of Will and Black Sun's Zenith!
