See Challenge # 165.
Not sure I've finished iterating on this. I wanted some sort of "five times" and the four card limit seemed like an obvious tie. I also considered keying off casting the same spell four times.
I was originally going to reward you for casting it FIVE times (with a flashback or copy effect etc), but I wasn't sure what the reward would be. This way, the fifth casting is itself a reward if it's the right spell. Although I'm not sure what spell is worth multiple castings that way. Also it doesn't explicitly say "book", is that obvious enough?
Should it be U or R?
I chose the set by choosing a random card and got Orcish Farmer. I realise, it's sort of lovely to see every day working non warrior orcs EVER. I can't remember the last time I ever saw an orc who wasn't actively fighting (or avoiding fighting, or subverting fighting...)
This was definitely not a set I imagined someone choosing! Nice interpretation
Yeah, I loved how well this worked out as a premise. I may have pushed my luck too far with Magic 2010 :)
