The Cheese Stands Alone

 

[Someone Else 37]

Or, if you like tournament Magic, Barren Glory.

 

[lenscas]

does that mean that the cheese stands alone is actually sort of legal?

because unless I am mistaken they are the same card, even the manacost >_>

brb making a cheese deck

 

[Someone Else 37]

The Cheese Stands Alone was printed in Unhinged and has a silver border, and thus is not legal in any tournaments (save Unglued/Unhinged block draft or constructed, I guess), so people don't usually use it even in casual decks. Barren Glory was made later on because Wizards decided that "you win if all you have is this card" is actually not so far out there, and they wanted to make it tournament-legal. But because rules, and because "The Cheese Stands Alone" is a really weird name for a non-parody card, they had to make a new card that did the same thing. Hence, Barren Glory.

I know, it was more of a joke.

there are some pretty interesting mechanics in those un-sets for example the super haste that Rocket-Powered Turbo Slug has

Which, as it turns out, is fairly similar to the Pacts in Future Sight.

yes indeed

 

[Someone Else 37]

I think that that slug might've directly inspired the Pacts. Unglued, if I remember correctly, was printed during/shortly after the Mirrodin block (at least, a lot of the cards are Mirrodin jokes), which was a couple years before Time Spiral.
