That one card that if it directly attacks the users points you win automatically.

Now that is just uncalled for. There's no need to be rude.

Hehe, this thread caused me to root out my cards too.
Here's another favourite of mine.
I can just stare at that picture for ages.

Mycosynth Lattice + Broodstar( http://magiccards.info/mi/en/31.html ) + 2X Cranial Plating( http://magiccards.info/5dn/en/113.html )
Having created a Broodstar Deck myself, I can safely say that having a Lattice is overkill. At the time of Mirrodin (before Artifact Lands were banned), if you have an Affinity deck (be it the Broodstar or Arcbound Ravager kind), you can kill most enemies within 5 turns. My Broodstar's fastest kill was second turn, when I was experimenting with Paradise Mantle for sources of Blue mana. Factor in Ornithopters and Cranial Platings in the mix, and you have one veritable air force (with the addition of Cranial Plating, it wasn't rare for me to have 10/2 Ornithopters by turn 3).

Any of the five major Dragons of the Champions block has that effect. My personal favorite is Ryusei:
Kinda reminds me of Leventhan from Odin Sphere.

EDIT: I'll give a cookie for anyone who can point me to a wallpaper of Ryusei.

A tie between Zombie Master and Royal Assassin. Okay, I know what the Zombie Master looks like on most cards (tribal leader), but on mine its an old mage in a dark cowl that has now become a zombie.

I have all the dragons except the island one.
There's a nice enough wallpaper of him on the first page of google pictures, just put in "ryusei the falling star", I would post it here but it just appears so small it would be a bit useless.

I had absolutely no idea about this until I read your post...looked this up and found the Arcbound Ravager + Disciple of the Vault(bro used to have that till he learned it was banned) were banned at the same time...we REALLY don't pay attention to what's going on in magic...

BRUTE FORCE FTW!
Darksteel Colossus 11/11 indestructible, and my friend's green deck could pull it out so fast, still having nightmares over that.
I like Magetta the Lion. the nuke everything card.
The cheese stands alone. or any of the unglued/unhinged cards. I really like Old Fogy.

Goblin Warchief, Goblin Piledriver, Siege-Gang Commander. See a theme going through that?
Throw in foodchain and watch hilarity ensue.
I'd be more of a traditional Goblin player if I could afford the cards. Unfortunately, the cards I need would run about ?500 - they include old double-lands and other expensive cards. There's a reason why the cards are so expensive - a well-made Goblin deck can be very impressive in Legacy.

Used to own a Goblin Recruiter, though. That thing was a blast; pretty much just "pay 1R: stack your deck".
I guess I was lucky to play when Magic first came out and got my hands on alot of nice cards, I stopped playing like 7ish years ago because it became too hard to upkeep, I tried coming back in Kamigawa but certain cards made the traditional goblin deck a pain, thought occasionally I play with my friends who are still active and faceroll them since I do own the traditional goblin foodchain deck (double lands and all). I was going to sell it a while back with all the rest of my cards but I kept the deck because I busted my ass getting almost all of them signed.

My favorite has got to be Pillory of the Sleepless.
<spoiler=Pillory of the Sleepless: Enchantment--Aura, Guildpact, White/Black>http://askthejudgemtg.com/guildpact/pillory_of_the_sleepless.jpgWhich is worse--the sleep which never ends or that which never comes?

Of course, I also love the White Samurai Legendaries, probably because the best deck I have at the moment is a Soldier/Samurai Red/White with Green, Artifact and Enchantment options. Needless to say, I have won several games with that deck. I'll spoiler a list if anyone wants to know all of the cards.

Thanks. Too bad it's not high-res (or wallpaper resolution for that matter).

It's just too bad that it happened before I could play at a tournament. My Deck at the time wasn't teribly expensive, but it could beat out most other decks in the metagame at the time with relative ease. I'd have a bigger pile of dead bodies if I had a set of Shrapnel Blasts.

Tooth and Nail a Kiki-Jiki and a DSC. Watch your opponent's face get plastered with his palm.

I haven't played in forever but the my favorite three cards are

Library of Leng
Land Tax
Land's Edge

in combination a game can end fairly quickly.

Also I don't know if any of these cards are still allowed.

Damn I've been ninja'd. Pillory of the Sleepless has been my favourite for quite a while but my other favourites are:

Jaws of Stone:

Howl of the Night Pack:
