Probably a rules nightmare...

Totally blanks all token makers?

In fact now I think about it, it might not even work. Creature cards go to the stack first, and creature tokens are put into play via cards and so are never in your hand to begin with.

What are you trying to achieve with the card?

Paul Hodgson · 2014-06-16 15:12:04

One of the mistakes we made with Towerfall was to have very few hate cards in the set. Combined with narrow strategies it led to some problems. So I was trying to make a cards that hated on non-traditional creature play (husk, emerge, tokens).

hopefully cleaner and less restrictive wording.

This seems overly powerful for a hate card since it actively punishes three different strategies. I think instead we may want to have the 'hate' cards trigger from the effect in a positive way for you so they can also be combined with the very ability they are hating. For example, Flagellant is a good hate card against Emerge and Immolate whilst still being awesome in decks that use those abilities.

Actually I think this card is really bad. It's effectively a 2 mana enchantment only it's much easier to kill that only does anything at all if the opponent lets it. It's not like Emerge or Husk creatures don't do anything without their abilities.

retiring due to poor design
