Hmm.  Nope, never been done. Ever. Okay, maybe once.

You can check out my "Mind Blast" deck in Casual. I use it so feel free to have a peak.

Not worth it, over 5% of the time it'll flip a land, I don't know why but it does

Realistically more like 33-38% depending on the land count.

This would destroy decks that hunt for mana since they would get most of it out of their deck fairly early.

Throw in {Sword of Body and Mind} with terp blade could be fun.

Would the sword effect trigger the blade ability to +1 +0

No because swords ability happens after damage is dealt.

Here's something I've been pondering over.
What happens with double strike and the {trepenation blade}? Is it one attack and two strikes or two attacks and it triggers twice with the possibity of different values for each?
And then add the {inquisitors flail} into the mix?

Wow it acts as 2 attacks so 2 triggers

Nope. Trep blade triggers when the creature is declare as an attacker, long before combat damage step. It will trigger once per attack step. Double strike would be great, but wont mill any more cards.
