Genju of the Realm

   So sorry for not posting! Life has gotten in the way!
   That aside, this week's card is Genju of the Realm, a legendary enchantment from Kamigawa.
    Genju of the Realm is quite astounding (as five-colored cards usually are). For five mana, you can get a land that, for another two mana, becomes an 8/12 with trample. And if by some miracle your opponent manages to destroy said creature (or land), then the enchantment returns to your hand so it can be used again!
     There's a negative side to all this, though: it's a five-colored card. And since five colors can be extremely difficult to play, Genju of the Realm is nearly useless. If you can successfully wield a five-color deck, then congrats, but otherwise, this card is just another overpowered legend that no one can use.
