With the new LoK set I figured I would make a card wtih a long title, anyway:

Last Hope of Victory
U
Instant
If your life total would be brought down to zero, it remains at zero but you do not lose the game.  Take one extra turn, at the end of that turn you lose the game.


Now, I do not know if I have it worded correctly (I am probably going to need help on this one jebus?)  but I want it where you can only cast this spell if you are at zero life (i.e. just lost the game) and it will let you still take your turn after your opponent has "already won".  Also, if you somehow killed yourself (like this could combo quite well with Bargain, pay 20, cast Last Hope of Victory etc) you get to take an extra turn still.  

This deck would probably only be used in Tendrils type decks to give them that one extra turn they needed, but didn't get so they died.  Also it's blue so FoW pitchable.  I beleive I have the right idea, but I am also sure the wording is horrendous, so please help me reword it.  thanx.

A card like this seems too abusable when paired with say Yawgmoth's Bargain and similar cards. At the very least it's way undercosted.

Plus Gerrymander is making this card right now, in the "second chance" thread.
