Perhaps you meant something other than interactivity, but UG was loaded with it, especially in the mirror. UG mirrors were all about creature interactions - manipulating damage before it stacked, manipulating toughness after it stacked, multi blocking with Aether Burst mana up, Quiet Speculation out of the board to fetch Krosan Reclamation, playing around your opponent holding Wonder, etc.
