[edit] Golgothian Sylex
A card from Magic: The Gathering that is not much more notable than any of the 7000+ other cards in the game. Apparently has some minor significance in the game's backstory (figuring in the plot of one book from the long series of tie-in novels), but nearly all references online are to the card (mostly stores selling it) and not to the magical item from the storyline (which I can assure you most Magic players care little about). Very crufty fancruft.

- It does not have 'minor significance', huh? It destroyed the entire continent of Terisiare and started the Ice Age. The article has nothing to do with the card. Keep Slobad 14:50, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- It is actually very much significant to the storyline. The card itself, yeah it's not worth its own entry, but as an item within the MTG storyline category, it certainly deserves to be there. The story of the Brothers' War -- ending with the use of the Sylex, is something of the creation myth for the Magic storyline. KeepVestdan 11:20 30 October 2005
