Instant: Ancestral Recall
Sorcery: Time Walk or Minds Desire
Artifact: Black Lotus
Creature: Griselbrand
Planeswalker: Jace, the Mind Sculptor
Enchantment: Necropotance

Alternately, my vote would probably go to Misty Rainforest or Polluted Delta.

Tribal: Bitterblossom

I listed what I thoguht wer ethe best cards...and frankly only two categories have clear cut winner to me. Every choice can easily be debated, except for Tribal - Bitterblossom, which has no real stiff compettition. The other being Instant - Force of Will. Over the many years of playing Magic I've learned one true, ever important thing....this card single-handedly SAVED MTG. This isn't just the card that holds older formats together...it's the card that held MTG together for years and years. I truly believe that if this card had never been printed we wouldn't be talking about MTG today. With all the degenerate things that have happened over the years this was the one check/balance card that kept the game "fair". I might not rank it the "best" card ever...but it's certainly damn close if not #1, and it's probably the most important card ever printed for MTG. In fact...yea, I'd probably have a hard time arguing the importance or that a single card in MTG is better. It's just the best, most important, most nesscessary card that could have ever been printed...and it's "fair".

Won a big tournament in Ottawa because it was "Legal" to cast it there (unhinged release).

LOL, that would be hilarious!

On topic: This is pretty circumstantial. It depends what you're playing really (see comment of mm1983 about FoW).

For me, a case could be made for Morphling. Superman got screwed by the new combat rules. Mana Drain for Instant, etc. It all depends really.

Edit:
Best Artwork: AEther Storm!

Instant- FOW, lightning bolt
Sorcery- mind's desire, yawg will
Artifact - lion's eye diamond
Enchantment- heartbeat of spring
Creature- tarmogoyf, emrakul
Aura - rancor
Land- wasteland, fetches

Anyone could say power for artifact but LED is just so good. And heartbeat was for me the main enchantment that stood out. It was a force in block and standard when I played it. And the art is awesome. Fetch lands changed the game. The ability to play 3-4 colors and run successfully changed the game a lot. And rancor is just well rancor.

Either one. If my mana base was 2 lands, Lim-Dűl's Vault.

i agree with this, but would change enchantment to oath of druids or yawgmoths bargain. and change sorcery to minds desire or yagmoths will.

I'm inclined to agree with you on the Will. Bargain is just the "Fixed" Necro so Necro will always be top of my list.

Impossible to answer, how much mana do I have, how big is my graveyard, what's the storm count at?
