Exhume - Much better than animate dead. Cabal Ritual - Great for storm decks
Exhume is a good point; I put down Animate Dead primarily because I love Worldgorger Dragon combo, but I had forgotten about Exhume, which is certainly better overall

712.5b The controller of another player can't make choices or decisions for that player that aren't called for by the rules or by any objects. The controller also can't make any choices or decisions for the player that would be called for by the tournament rules.
Example: The player who's being controlled still chooses whether he or she leaves to visit the restroom, trades a card to someone else, agrees to an intentional draw, or calls a judge about an error or infraction.

I’m always in two minds about that. Overall I would prefer the blade because it targets nonartifact creatures as well, but Terror ensures that the targeted creature can’t be regenerated as well.
most of the time i doom blade something it doesn't regenerate anyway; the loss in ability to target artifacts is too much.
Oh, and i think Dismember is better than the both.

She should be in everyone's top 10 (probably 10 like in my list due to broken/banned cards). She is the best planeswalker for a reason. (she is better than jace for a lot of reasons)

On mtgsalvation people don't want to discuss ideas, so I give people something else to discuss: my controversial opinions.
No. 7 Dakmor Sorceress. I'm in love with her, she is so sexy. I don't care about her swamp smell.
No. 6 Booster Tutor. Most of the time the cards on the booster will not help you. But who cares?
No. 5 Zodiac Pig. Ah little swine, you never thought you will made a top ten list, do you? No need to worry, Idiotic Specter is here to give you all the credit you deserve.
No. 2 Hypnotic Specter. Look kids, this guy has stolen my avatar image!
No. 1 Ravenous Rats. I used to play with them back in Invasion Block. They have survived and I still have at least 3 Invasion Block decks with those little rodents inside.
My favorite Magic card of all time is actually Black, believe it or not.

Close the thread folks...we have a winner.
Hard to argue with that list.
I would just add:
Exhume - Much better than animate dead.
Cabal Ritual - Great for storm decks
Exhume is a good point; I put down Animate Dead primarily because I love Worldgorger Dragon combo, but I had forgotten about Exhume, which is certainly better overall
Yeah, Worldgorger Dragon/Ghitu Fire is just so much fun to pull off.
Isn't smallpox better than pox?
Example: The player who's being controlled still chooses whether he or she leaves to visit the restroom, trades a card to someone else, agrees to an intentional draw, or calls a judge about an error or infraction.
How about this?
Duress and Cabal Therapy, but no Thoughtseize? I would also argue that Terror belongs on the list in place of Diabolic Edict.
Not even close, Terror is usually worse than Doom Blade.
And all 3 of them should be behind Innocent Blood.
