Mind Welder

Meant to both hose portent/foresight, and recur your own spells .Might be a bit broken.

Yep, seems pretty broken to me :)

This is a pretty busted effect. Return your best creature every time they kill it, get a removal spell every turn or just put lands on top of your opponent's library. That said, it is pretty vulnerable as an Artifact Creature, and it's definitely interesting. Would probably prefer the actual creature to be even easier to kill though since the ability is so good!

Yeah, I'm aware this is pretty dangerous if left unanswered, thats why I added an activation cost too. Changed to 1/1 so it can't affect the baord much.

The one time it actually survived to untap I went infinite, hard to tell how really broken it is

Simon O'Keeffe · 2012-06-25 20:29:21

As with previous infinite combos I think we have to nerf or remove one or other from the set. I'll let you choose which!

Thomas Baker · 2012-06-26 07:23:57

I think this is the one to cut, if it survives it probably takes over the game, with or without an infinite three card combo

I was thinking about this guy last night. Couldn't come up with a nice flavourful fix that wasn't really complicated.

Simon O'Keeffe · 2012-06-29 15:52:13

The ability is really strong, but I can't see a way to make it weaker but not terrible! Perhaps if you had to exile one or two cards from your graveyard first?

Kieran Symington · 2012-06-29 15:59:13

Here is the best fix I had, still pretty convoluted. Adds one extra turn required to play the same card again and again.

Simon O'Keeffe · 2012-06-29 16:41:38

Though it does need fixing, this just reads so badly it's not worth it! It looks like the Oracle wording for one of those old cards that no longer works the way it was intended to!
