*Obviously the artwork drew me in first, but using this card during the game was a no-brainer in almost all formats. Even low mana games could use this guy. He was substantially over-powered.
At the time. The eyeball was a 1man operation, everything else was just noise.
He can heal - and reflect all types of damage....
Sometimes, you could simply win the game by getting to the exhaustion rounds where automatic damage was being dealt - cornealus can heal 4 health per round and reflect whatever attack. Add in a tank healer behind and he just can not die.
It was an epic card during an epic time in the game.

Honestly, it makes me sad to see the prices for all these older legendary cards.
It brings back some nostalgia from back in the day when i used to play the game religiously and I would have been ecstatic to get another cornealus for $4.
Or a Kron the Undying for $8
Or a Phantom of the Abyss for $2!! wtf.
But, that still doesn't change the reality that even at these prices...
I am still not interested in owning the cards.
Nostalgia is all that is left when looking at the values -
remembering the good 'ol days
