Just got to say, you've definitely earned distinction as an MTGS hero
Quote from Stardust »
Because he's the hero MTGS deserves, and the one it needs right now. So we'll global him. Because he can take it. Because he's not just our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. An expired rascal.

ExpiredRascals you sir are a god-like hero.

How has Shahrazad played out for you? Outside of a very small and informal group I would never include it, personally. Part of the appeal of the card is that the opponent might just concede due to time considerations..without that dimension (we just play out the subgame every time) I'm not sure its worth it.
Shahrazad is pretty amazing in Wx aggro. Wr is probably the best for it (followed by Wb and Wg). It also drastically improves under 6th ed rules. Pre-M10, cards removed from the game in the subgame would stay rfg'd upon returning to the main game. This meant that a subgame crypt could frequently force a concession even if lethal damage was on the stack. Leading with T1 savannah lions, T2 shahrazad, swing, is one of the most powerful unaccelerated openers in the game and creates a 12-life swing on t2.
Make sure that your playgroup doesn't mind the whole subgame process though.

To me, the errata for Necromancy is intuitive; however, cards like Sower of Temptation and manlands both frequently have rules questions and interactions brought up. Unless we're talking Sands of Time complex, rules interactions or foginess would never prevent me from playing a card.
I don't necessarily have banned cards. I don't run a powered cube, but that's not to say they're all banned. I would say the only cards that are banned would be Ante cards.
This card is fricking pain in my cube. I love it so much.
The boost it gives vs control for aggro/midrange is just insane (with mana burn)

Do outdated rules count as custom errata/house rules?
My mana burn and thawing glaciers might take offense

It's very good with phasing and mana burn. Without mana burn it loses a lot of its value.
So, very good for me. Probably not great for non-6th ed rules cubes.

What about the card makes it over-complex to you?
