I always advise my students to take
the Transfiguration Test before trying the Exam. You don't want
to wait too long to wipe the board clean of critters, as this game
already has many creatures that come out fast and hit hard. Even
with considerable effort expended in "learning", there
will be a critical and often fatal delay before this spell can be
used, if this card is relied upon as the primary defense against
creatures. On the other hand, if its role is more supplementary
in that respect, then the Exam shows some promise. But in this case,
you need to limit the number of copies of it in your deck to just
one or two. I still prefer the Test, so you'd have to have a need
for more than 4 cards that provide mass creature elimination to
include it. That implies a local environment heavily slanted towards
lots of small creatures, which is seldom the case.

Trans. Exam is really good if your
opponent is using creatures...but if they're not, this just takes
up room =/ And, you shouldn't use it if you use creatures...since
you'll end up hurting yourself more then your opponent. This card
is in most Potion Class Disaster/Obliviate decks, since of its denial
ability. Since it only targets creatures, its pretty much useless
in 1/2 of your games. I would recommend cards like Potions Exam
instead ;)

Creature, Creature, please beware
Your extinction is growing near
I only need a power of ten
To put you all in the discard pen
I must admit, ten is tough achieve
But with careful planning, I shall deceive
The only risk that I really take
Is, can I get it out, before I break
I know that this, is the one card you fear
But so few use it or hold it dear
So breathe easy if you think it is safe
But keep an eye out my T-Exam wraith

Lets just hop right into the ultimate
in creature devastation, Transfiguration Exam. Now that Minerva
is a tricky gal, and she's more sneaky then you believe, so while
your opponent is laying down all those creatures, hoping for glory,
Minerva pops an Exam on them, and wham bam thank you m'am, its bye
bye creatures. Now Transfig Exam costs 10T to play, a once high
amount but easily obtainable. This card is great for creature removal,
but there are a couple of things you need to watch out for. One
your opponent might not be playing creatures, but are you willing
to take the chance they aren't? Second, Transfiguration Test, costs
half as much and gets rid of all but one of their creatures. Now
that card in of itself is useful, and you could always use another
card to get rid of their other creature. Now here's the tricky part.
Most people don't play their bigger creatures until the middle of
the game, once they have their power up. Do you let the little creatures
stay out and wait for the Transfig Exam, or do you take the risk
of using it, and then having your opponent play a dragon or Fluffy.
All in all a tough choice, but I think this card is very useful,
not as useful as Transfig Test, but still useful none the less.

Transfiguration Exam. in the eternal
words of Cusco: "BOOM, BABY!" If you can get up to ten
and your playing trans and your not playing a heavy creature deck,
throw it in! the end!

Transfiguration is a great support
card vs creature but most decks that use transfiguration are quick
deck that need a little support and 10 power is too much. Only the
use of this card is necessary if u can learn quick enough. I prefer
an alternative combo that uses double the action but half the cost:
TRANSFIGURATION TEST/TAKE ROOT. You need 8 copies of creature removal
instead of 4, more lessons like I said earlier but Helluvalot quicker.
