How did I never notice the "Has two names" thing before? I like it. What's its purpose here?
Magic 20XX has a cycle of common, and a cycle of rare creatures that wish for a 'bad' creature from outside the game (like Dripping Dead or Pearled Unicorn... there's one for each color) and put it in your hand (for example, Snake Pactmaker). The five bad creatures take up the token slot to guarantee that you at least have access to three of them. I still get a kick out of it whenever I see someone fourth pick Mons's Goblin Raiders.
I did a few things to evolve the mechanic in the expansion 20XD6. One of those things was to make a cycle of cards that also shared the name of the bad card. I also increased the number of cards that wish for them by one. For example: Liquid Death.
Ah; I see. So it made the wishes more flexible. Interesting.
