What does any of this mean?
You choose one of those three items, and then shuffle this card into your library and reveal the top card of your library to see if it's the one you chose. if it isn't, you shuffle again and reveal the top card of your library again.
i might change the swap for mechanic to reveal cards until you get one, and change cards that care about being shuffled to being revealed.
Well, you noticed yourself that the wording beforehand looked like only the last mode includes any swapping.
So how does a spell end up in the library?
How does the card text imply that this swaps Choose a Future itself for a card from your library? It says "Swap from Hand", so... wouldn't that mean you swap a card still in your hand?
Additionally... I just noticed swap puts onto the battlefield, so this attempts to put instant or sorcery spells onto the battlefield.
Oof what a mess...
Maybe I should try a new mechanic for nonpermanents
Yeah Swap from Hand is a weird name and i noticed that, i'm gonna change it to Swap to Hand, and maybe have some which can activate from your hand
As for putting instant and sorceries OTB, that's a nother reason to get a new mechanic for spells and such, but just FYI this actually puts these into your hand.
