So,

Ive seen the official card for the blue praetor,
if your computer lets you see the image, here it is.



If not,
Then its name is "Jin-gitaxias, core augur", it costs 8 and 2 blue mana,
it has flash, its a 5/4,

it REDUCES ALL YOUR OPPONENTS MAXIMUM HAND SIZES BY 7!!!
and lets you draw 7 CARDS ON YOUR END STEP!!!

You're missing the fact that it MAKES you draw seven cards at your end step, so make sure you kill your opponent in around 7 turns or put some Eldrazi in there to keep from decking yourself. 

I feel this card will get gentleman's ruled out in Champions!  lol

Are you kidding me. This is mind erasure's time to shine! I'mma get two on the board and I'mma be all BAM! MUTHERF$%K3R! Mill 17....this also may or not be with a few glasses of...."party fuel" In my defense the choice to play Jin is one that should be made responsibly and not while intoxicated, but once you get him out, feel free to chug away. PARTY LIKE AN AUGER (OF THE CORE)!

As well as that G/W enchantment that makes it so that things go to the bottom of your library instead of your graveyard...
or the eldrazi to shuffle your graveyard into your library...

and reliquary tower :)

Srry still had a little buzz going this morning.  The card I meant to say was Jace's Erasure, and due to my mathematical error it would only be fourteen. Not seventeen. I would like to apologize to all who had to witness the horror that is....(Sega?)

overbeing of myth thanks jin-gitaxias. assuming you draw normally, it gets +9/+9 a turn- pretty impressive for a monoblue combo.

I will now defeat him with the greatest blue, black, white, green, and red cards

Blue: Counterspell/Unsummon

Black:Terror

White:Swords to Plowshares

Green: 4 Hornet Stings :)

Red:Pyroblast

This card will have a bullseye like no other, and at 10 mana, it seems a likely counter target

Well if you run him in polycombo, they won't be able to counter him, and with blue you can back mister gitaxias w/ your own counterspells.

Most definitely not the best Blue card ever. POWER F***ING NINE! The 10 mana seems too steep in my opinion.

While this is a powerful card, I have to agree with Turbine (shivers...) and twogun, its far from the best blue card, the cost makes it unplayable in mono blue forcing tricks to play it.  which while its not a bad thing I can't consider it to be the best card because of that.  The best cards of each color should beable to be played directly, without needing to rely on another card
