This weeks card of the week is: Mirage of Nightmare
This card is the reason graceful charity got limited to 1. This is a card drawing machine. The only problem is ,it is a card drawing machine. The best way to play this card is to empty your hand activate MoN. On your opponents turn you can MST it. Wait till your draw phase. I have had several player MST it for me. They usally only do it once and they say"OOOHHH MAN WAS THAT DUMB". When the new PDF comes out you will be able to draw for your turn and chain MST to the draw before your stand by phase. This means if you dont have a MST set or in your hand and you draw it you can still destroy the MoN and not have to discard.
Now some poeple incorrectly believe that you can activate IO and choose not to pay for IO and not have to discard. In the American game if you activate MoN ,draw cards, the effect of MoN still has to resolve. You can choose , like in the Japanese game, to have the MoN resolve first then not pay for IO. That doesnt work.
Alot of people say this is a bad card in exodia. I disagree. Sure if you get the head in the graveyard you have a problem. I still think it is worth the risk. With no limit on back up solider. odds are good.
As for other decks, I think it is a must. the only thing is I think you really need to run 3 MST. If no you can cause yourself a huge headache.
Forgot to mention Emergency provisions. you can use EP to destroy the MoN and gain 1000 life at the same time
