Worldspine Wurm is my personal favourite, it is not a certain kill nor even threatening one the next turn but for 2 mana three 5/5 tramplers is better than most things you can Reanimate

There were no player points to earn, age groups werent yet called Juniors, Seniors or Masters yet, no States, Regionals or Nationals preliminary events all you needed to do was just go to the tour events nearest your location, play in one of six five-round single-elimination events (three a day over two days), and as long as you manage to win the third round congrats
