Amorphous Mass

Is the intent to become a permanent copy, or until eot?

Intent was to become a permanent copy, though that might be a bit too good at this cost. Probably needs some playtesting!

This card is kind of ridiculous but fun. And very powerful once you have foresight going.

Maybe make it non-land permanent to prevent weird shenanigans. I think the rules manager will commit suicide once this becomes a land-enchantment-artifact-planeswalker-creature.

Good point - him turning into a land does seem a bit weird!

I kind of like him turning into a land EOT and then accelerating out your bomb, then next turn becoming a creature or something. Might be OP but the weirdness is actually goodness IMHO.

Pretty sure I didn't intend for it to hit lands originally - and not sure how useful it is to do so - but I guess for now we can let it do that and see how it works.

If the ability is not EOT, may I suggest exiling the card so players can remember what he is at all times?

Allan Chong · 2012-06-26 13:37:36

if it exiles can it be a copy of all permanents that it is exiling or is that far too insane?

Paul Hodgson · 2012-06-26 14:15:16

Might make sense to exile since it's not copying things that are in play. Would be a bit awkward to exile a sweet ETB effect, though! Copying multiple things at once would cause way too many rules headaches and is definitely out!

Kieran Symington · 2012-06-26 15:09:29

how about swapping the the mass and the revealed card until EoT if it's a permanent (& give haste if a creature) - that way you get the sweet ETB effects

Paul Hodgson · 2012-06-26 15:53:22

So, should this be until EOT, or exile (so ppl will rmb what he is)? And is 2 mana too cheap to 'copy' stuff?

Allan Chong · 2012-07-04 14:00:34

Instead of exiling the card, I'm making him mill it because it makes him way more synergistic with Black and Red effects. Should be easy enough to see which card in the graveyard he's copying.
