Oh yeah, onslaught was an amazing block. For all the bad wrap that mirrodin gets it really wasnt that bad. We can attribute the crappyness of that metagame to one card, ravager. I think that affinity was insane enough with broodstar without introducing that card. I actually had a friend who played broodstar affinity in a tournament so people would drop their meddling mages naming ravager and it was a giant screw you. I loved watching that happen almost every game. But yeah onslaught goblins and the mono white control with eternal dragon(hell yeah!) and exalted angel were amazing. Astral slide was one of my favorite decks to play in that era though. Doing silly stuff with moving their creatures in and out of the game, oh so much fun. Also yes, not to mention skullclamp... ugh, a dark day for magic R&D indeed lol.
