Another M13 card to rate...

Trumpet Blast

 Spoiler: Show

5.0
: First pick no matter what pack.
4.5
: First pick pack 1.
4.0
: I will strongly consider playing this as the only card of its color.
3.5
: I feel a strong pull into this card’s color.
3.0
: This card makes me want to play this color.
2.5
: Several cards of this power level start to pull me to this color.
2.0
: Should generally make the deck if in this color.
1.5
: Decent filler.
1.0
: 23rd card if you have to.
0.5
: This card will sometimes be sideboarded in.
0.0
: I will never put this card into my deck (main deck or after sideboarding).


I'm not a fan of Trumpet Blast .  I just really dislike that it only hits attacking creatures.  Thankfully they've fixed that problem in Return to Ravnica.

I'll go 1.5 on this.

I can't see anyone running more than 1, but in a deck that is on the token plan like W/R this card can pull out a win.  Still, you're going to end up taking this card late, but it can make the main-deck.
Tolkein was a jerk.  Seriously, what DM sends 9 Wraith Lords at a Lvl 2 party of Halflings.

The only 'correct' way to play D&D is by whatever method is making the group you have at that session, have the most fun.

Usually a 1 but in a weenie rush deck probably a 2.  I have played decks with 2 of these MD and in those types of deck they are immense.

1.5

If you're building a well-curved deck, this could easily add 10 damage to an attack. And that's if you hit curve, it doesn't include the above mentioned white weenie deck. I love me some combat tricks. 
Limited Guidelines:

5.0: I will take this card no matter what: Pack Rat
4.5: Bomb and/or splashable creature or removal: Aetherling
4.0: Excellent first pick first pack, will sway me into same colors: Advent of the Wurm
3.5: Excellent first pack pick two, will confirm colors or possibly sway into second color. Gaze of Granite
3.0: Good in-color addition, or splashable removal/creature: Ascended Lawmage
2.5: Solid pick in-color: Bronzebeak Moa
2.0: Creatures 10-16; removal 6-7. Haazda Snare Squad
1.5: My 23rd or 22nd card, depending on removal. Wake the Reflections )
1.0: 23rd card if I don't maindeck an additional land: Murmuring Phantasm
0.5: This card will sometimes be sideboarded in: Uncovered Clues
0.0: I will shred this card for counters: Possibility Storm

Occassionally when catering, I've been put the task of arranging Fruit and Cheese or Grilled Vegetable platters.  More than once a high class buffet has started with the mark of Phyrexia upon it.  Since i've got a good eye for color so it looks great to people who don't get the "joke" (it's a niceley divided circle after all: the outline gives you 4-6 "regions" to work with), this has actually got me put on platter design more often, resulting in Phyrexia's presence at more private and industry events.

I'm going to say it is a 1. But it's one of those 1s that's more like 2 in the decks it belongs in and a 0 other places.
