Annul
is definitely apropos for Mirrodin. The question
is, will an artifact deck become so mainstream
that Annul becomes a maindeck card. I'm betting
yes. In limited, it's a mid pick and playable
considering the environment.

3
Limited: 3

Well, for most of the week, we're
messing with artifacts in Type 2. To start off
with, we see blue's answer.
As always, blue has to hit it
before it gets to the board. Blue, though, also
gets the added bonus of hitting enchantments
too. So this would be huge against slide, one of
the more popular decks in my area. Not very good
other then that, though, so it would be a
sideboard at best. And since Stabilizer is an
artifact, you would play the Stabilizer instead,
as it prevents the slide deck from doing much of
anything.
In limited, if you're playing
blue, you're playing this. With 1/2 the set
being artifacts, and random enchantments making
the number even higher, you'll find something to
hit.

Annul
The right cost, and obviously of great use in the
current block. A solid
piece of "removal" in limited, but probably still
a sideboard card in type
2.

A hard counter for
1? Sounds good to me. That it only applies to
artifacts and Enchanments..or, as we say these
days, that it only applies for half the
block...sounds good to me.
From the word go,
you have a potential answer to a potential
bomb. It is an easy way around worship, and
other assorted game stallers. It stops Isochron
Scepter/Boomerang before it can get too
troublesome (assuming you went first). All for
one mana. Call in now and we will throw in a
set of steak knives.
Limited, you play
it. Half your ooponesnts cards are likely to be
artifacts.
Constructed, we
should find a few in your sideboards if you are
playing blue.
Limited rating - 4
(was lovely having three until I came across the
smart ass witha pure green deck!)
Constructed rating -
3 (A counterspell is only as good as the threats
your opponent plays. There are more non
artifacts/enchantments in type 2)
Sounds like a
naughty word rating - Annulriffic

This is just gooood. With the release of Mirrodin,
every one is running
enchantments and artifacts. Heck, even goblins run
the Spellbombs. I think
these are def worthy of main deck in most anything
with blue in them.
And with a didenote, I went 3-3 at states with my
mono black discard deck.
I'm very happy with it for my 1st major tourney. |

This card is your classic sideboard counterspell.
Sure it costs just one blue mana, but unless the
spell you want to counter is a artifact or
sorcery, it'll have no effect. As is a classic
sideboard card, it will only see use as long as
there are key artifacts and/or enchantments in top
tier decks. In Mirrodin limited, half the set is
artifacts. You might play blue and you might face
a bomb, but if you don't see a lot of Annul, don't
pack it.
