Nassif sounds like a muppet. It's too cute.

I looked up the actually ruling:

5/1/2008: Reflecting Pool checks the effects of all mana-producing abilities of lands you control, but it doesn't check their costs. For example, Vivid Crag says "{T}, Remove a charge counter from Vivid Crag: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool." If you control Vivid Crag and Reflecting Pool, you can tap Reflecting Pool for any color of mana. It doesn't matter whether Vivid Crag has a charge counter on it, and it doesn't matter whether it's untapped./END

I love five color so much! I recommend that everybody plays it because their is no particular way to play/build it. I still play it in standard and I made it and call it "Five color super-friends manlands control" I don't use any multicolor cards besides Sarkhan vol. Other versions are aggro, cruel, and allies. I'm serious, everyone should play this

MTG FTW !!!

i see what you're saying and i have no idea what the actual rule is. but technically, if a vivid doesn't have any counters, then it technically COULD NOT produce mana of any color. /shrug Reflecting pool can reproduce any mana a land you control could produce, but a vivid land without any counters can only produce ONE color...

wasn't it normally more than like 260 so that u could last a wile without going below battle of wits winning range
