Miracle+brainstorm/jtms/sylvan library?
I suppose it depends of what other miracles are printed, since the only one printed thusfar seems really bad.

FULL DISCLOSURE:  The dream was post AVR so there was a copy of Slayer's Stronghold.  I decided to keep it pre AVR in my post here.

EDIT: I just remembered.  The Skirges might have been 2x Whipflare and 1x something else, probably War and Peace.

EDIT2:  Currently 4-0 in my first four games with this.  My opponents have been very angry.  I fought off a Wurmcoil from Grixis for six turns before I found my second Dispatch.  Jeez, I can do a lot of damage.

EDIT3: Streak broken.  Lost to an unexpected Overrun.    Cracking a Shrine for 10 wasn't enough.

There might be a rare miracle card that is just too good to not include in something. Top might see a resurgance.

On a tangent: It's a shame library manipulation is so easy in Legacy because I so badly want to play Elemental Augury

I feel some decks with Brainstorm are going to want Temporal Mastery.

Looks like wizards want to kill the format. It seems like they are trying to get brainstorm and JTMS banned. Legacy without brainstorm is going to be crappy. It might be time to sell legacy cards....

On the other hand Cyrus, Brainstorm has never been at a lower singles price than now for years. Jace and Brainstorm aren't even the big bad cards anymore, being repalced by Knight of the Reliquary and Stoneforge Mystic

broken cards in legacy thread?
broken cards in legacy thread.

time walk being allowed in legacy is irresponsible and shouldn't have happened.

also i heard theres a miracle card wizards was hesitant to even reveal and apparently it wasn't blue so its not even this, so i kind of want to see where this is gonna go.

anyways gristlebrand looks like reanimator fodder because being able to refill your hand in response to dying sounds really really good.

Griselbrand is not going to be played in Reanimator. 

First, it would cost you 8 life to Reanimate it.  That would likely put you to 10-11 life (after fetch lands, Force of Will s).  You can't afford to pay the 7 life to immediately draw 7 cards, leaving your win condition exposed to a lot of removal for a lot longer than it should be.  Even if you wait until it's removed, chances are good that you'd be too low on life to use the ability.

Second, there's already a more powerful reanimation target that refills your hand.  It's called Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur .  His ability doesn't cost you any life AND empties your opponent's hand, given you free reign to reanimate anything you want afterwards.

I also think that Time Walk 2.0 was a bad idea, but I don't think it can be banned without knowing if it actually hurts the format.  It's entirely possibly that it doesn't take over like everyone thinks it will.
