Last night in a type 4 game I had to choose one of these cards to give David from his Intuition. All 3 cards are amazing, one more so by the other cards included in the decision. Which card do you give David?
(note: nothing of consequence is in your hand that will impact the card that David chooses)

I'm most likely to give him Whispers, since if you give him Flash, he'll just tutor up something to fetch Agenda from his 'yard, and Agenda gives him both anyway. Flash is much weaker when you have to pitch your blue spells to dig.

I believe the correct call here is obvious... you cast twilights call in response so that your other opponent wins on the spot thanks to glasticaster

The reasoning is the most important thing here.
Paul mastriano claims that Flash is the strongest card in the deck. I do not agree. Alot would depend on the game state. Agenda is the easiest card to stop. If you can definatively stop the Agenda from hitting play, then you have removed the other two cards from his deck.
Intuition is a broken card in the deck with all the sick flashback and incarnation stuff.

I dont know if Flash is the strongest card in the format... but its definetly up there. In addition to being an instantspeed demonic, stacking your library for the remainder of your broken spells seems extremely strong. In fact the only downside I have ever seen from Flash is that it makes you a target, because everyone knows you have a stream of bombs about to show up.

I definitely agree w/ the target aspect of Flash. People just have to aim for you asap to avoid the series of bombs that will follow. Gleemax is often the same we have found.

I agree with the reasoning behind giving me the Whispers (which in fact was the decision Triple_S came to in the game).
I very nearly Intuitioned for these 3 though:
Yawgmoth's Agenda
Restock
Flash of Insight
...which would have provided another interesting choice.
