Description Finest Hour - Card Number 21: Quest for the Lost Elements

“Princess Celestia, I also completed the studies of the elements. It is possible to reshape them to a new focus, but we need at least 5. And we only have four. So it is hopeless.”

A little smile was visible on Celestia.

“I think you will find that more unlikely than you think. Perhaps you will find the remaining 2 elements, or maybe not, but never give up the hope. Take the 4 elements with you, and if you come across one of the others, then you have them when you need them. And they might also be useful for you until then, you are venturing into dangerous territory.”

Rainbow Dash lighted up quite a bit, her face beaming with joy.

“So let me get this straight: We are going on a quest, for ancient spells and planar portals, and looking for an artifact as well? Best. Quest. Ever. I can finally be like Daring Do!”

“Well, at least you are having fun. Go and pack whatever you need for the trip, you will be leaving by nightfall. Luna and I will figure out a way to bolster our defences, as well as finding a way to get you outside the shield unnoticed.”

Quest for the Holy Relic is strictly better, is that what you were trying to do?

I know this card is slighly worse, but if there is going to be a quest involving the mane six, it needs to require six quest counter

This is awesome.. If I ever got back into Magic, I'd wanna see stuff like this none of that OP crap like Planeswalkers or a blue car that literally throws away half a deck. Its gotten ridiculous.

I believe its called Traumatize from M11. Its a rare and its soooo OP. I couldn't believe they made a card like that when playin my old man.

While half a deck is tough, I am very happy they banned Jace, the Mind Sculptor (can remove you entire deck). Much pain was had against it.

Yea Planeswalkers are ridiculous. It was a neat idea that just blew up into unresonable.

I've never had the privilege of playing with or against Traumatize or Planeswalkers, so i can't say.

Jace looks like a 5+turn almost-auto-victory timebomb, so yeah, he seems pretty OP by himself. Likewise, I can imagine all sorts of combos you cold play with Traumatize (on yourself to fetch things from the grave, etc.)

I wonder how my simple deck of burn and destroy would fare against them...

Yea and in my day of Magic people b*tched about Slivers (since I loves them). I know they were tough but this stuff is just...ugh...

I've heard all about slivers! I think I'm either too young or too poor/unlucky to have had to opportunity to be able to see them though. The funny thing about decks is that you hear how OP everything is on the internet, but it isn't until you've played a few rounds against them can you truly gauge its potential.

Indeed but yea, slivers were all my magic world back in the day. I wish they made more but I guess they had their time.
