Yeah, I'm like Mikey on the Trix issue. I respect Trix for the fact that it is something born out of the players, and that it's evidence of the versatility of Magic, but this combo specifically just feels wrong. I don't say its "wrong" like it's terribly broken, I just say it's "wrong" as in it just doesn't feel right. Like Mikey said, it feels like an abuse of the rules. And flavor-wise it makes no sense:
You trick me into ... illusioning? ... that I'm grand? ... And so now I die?
Sure, any one-shot kill combo can be boring, and it's not like they all make perfect sense flavor-wise, but at least you end up dying for what seems like a decent reason - not because somebodygave you something as abstract as a faulty sentiment.
I just have a distaste for the whole thing.
