i was wondering...

with any of the cards that have the ability "epic"
would you be able to stifle JUST the "for the rest of the game, you cant play spells" part of the epic ability...?

"For the rest of the game you can't play spells" is a static ability (not activated or triggered).

And that actually really pisses me off because cards like Nether Void were originally printed as a static effect, but the oracle text was rewritten so it was a trigger.

The only difference was that World Enchantments always affected EVERYONE is some way. Enchantments like Luminarch Ascension only let the owner play the ability.

Well, that is why it is called Enchant World...

twogun is wrong, they stopped printing world enchantments with the Mirage block having the last of them.  The only errta they have gone through is that they are now called "world enchantments" rather then enchant world.

While furance of rath is an enchantment that effects everyone it is not technially a world enchantment, the difference between the world enchantments and plain enchantments is the "world rule".  this rule states that if two or more permanents with "world" in the type line are in the battefield the one that has been in play the shortest amount of time remains the others go to the grave.  so basically the difference is you can have 4 furnace of raths in play at once, but you can only have 1 living plane in play at a time.

As for wizards not taking the enchant worlds anywhere, i disagree, Planechase is pretty much the next level of world enchantments
