One of the best cards in-game IMO!

If you try to draw a card from the opponent and they have 0 left, you get a message that says you're already drawing a card or have eight cards in your hand.  I think you should have to lose the game.

Why should you lose the game?  You still have cards left in your deck.

Hmm. Another good - synergy.

With reverse time, you can control the first card of the opponent's deck, and so that you can copy the card that you want.

Exactly.

right.

mindgate copies the opponent's card in deck; it's not like hourglass, which draws a new card.

obviously it makes no sense for the mindgate using player to lose.

I really like using this card because then I can basically counter my opponent and be awesome.

It's not really countering your opponent it's just playing the same deck as them.

It also lets you see what your opponent draws, which seems pretty handy IMO.

It's really just a fun card. You never know what kind of deck is your opponent using or if his cards will help you win.

This may be the case if you simply throw 1 or 2 mind gates into a random deck, but I would say it's very different if you are using a deck specifically designed around it.

Assume your opponent has some sort of winning strategy(doesn't matter how effective it actually is, so long as it gives them SOME way of potentially winning the game).  Once you can get to a point of having 2 or more mind gates in play and being able to use them every turn, you basically have the option of playing that same strategy your opponent is trying to use against you, except you are able to do so even faster than they are(and even this is in addition to any other cards you may have in your own deck that will give you additional ways to win).  Of course, you also need the quanta to play all of those cards, but since mind gate will be giving you copies of their towers as well, this is usually not a huge problem so long as you have enough time to get things set up.  Ironically though, it may be entirely possible for a mind gate deck to lose to a farm deck precisely because the farm deck does NOT have a winning strategy for you to exploit.

I've heard this can be a crazy fun card to play with, though i usually fail when i try.

Just so everyone knows, you don't need quantum pillars in a deck that uses this, since you can draw your opponent's pillars as well.

you should have some quantum pilars. You cant know how much time will pass until that he will draw pilars, and also there is a chance that some from his creatures base on the quanta from the mark and not drom the pilars. so to be on the safe side- you should put some quantum pilars. when i playd this deck most of the quanta i used came from the quantum pilars
