Seeing as the first two guys that I made of this cycle actually seem to be okay, even if a little lazy and cludgy design, I'll try and finish the cycle.

Shouldn't it be either: Target creature you control and own to your hand. or Target creature you control to it's owner's hand.

Yes! Good catch.

I can't decide if this is broken or terrible. Which means it's probably fine.

This did very interesting things with Idaran Broodcaller in a basically lost game.

Is that actually a good thing?

Kieran Symington · 2014-07-08 22:13:41

I'm not sure. It gave Rob an out to a very difficult situation but only if he picked exactly the right path for about five turns in a row. It's the kind of thing I like very much about Magic but it's not very New World Order. There was a lot of board complexity.

Changing to a mono-U card but I'm not sure that helps it survive when we only have four uncommon U creature slots to play with. Could be an enchantment!

Seems to work well with immolate guys?

Paul Hodgson · 2014-07-09 11:43:50

Works with immolate and with resound and as a bad counterspell for their removal while also being a wind drake. It's definitely good/playable. Is it fun? I think so. Does it pull its weight for its complexity? That's where I'm unsure. To be honest we are pretty unsure how much complexity we actually *want* in the set so it's hard to judge. It's an uncommon so new world order doesn't apply so I would like to see it make it in.
