­Academy Rector + Spectrify

I thought that one was from the dark? Huh. Anyway, dies into exile and a new enchantment; and exiles a creature into a token of itself. Both white.

Clearly something white which exiles into something, then.

We've got creature and enchantment already. Artifacts maybe? White likes digging those up. Some kind of archaeologist. No! An archaeology department head who exiles people off into the wilds to be archaeologists. And sometimes mysterious finds appear at the museum.

Hmmm; this ended up way too wordy. And hammers the "Do this" story home a bit too hard. Was:
­: Exile target creature you control. It is now an archaeologist in addition to its other creature types. Search your deck for an artifact with casting cost equal to the number of archaeologists in play or exile. Put it into play.

Sooo... yeah, I think I'm gonna simplify and keep the flavour as more of a hint. Though ironically losing the 'exile' in the process.

Also, the art clearly needs to be a classroom full of fantasy creatures all wearing stetsons and carrying bullwhips. Image search fails me.

Ah no; I can make it a dig instead of a cmc-search. That's more flavourful ANYWAY (though only via fan-terminology) and exile the unwanted cards.

Still slightly too wordy. Of course; want to be an archaeologist itself.

Archaeologist tribal. It could have been a thing! (They're Artificers now, I think?)

Can this cost 2? Eh, maybe. I'm crap at pricing search cards. I guess it's always drawing some cards; so has to be kinda pricey. Certainly can't be common. Should it be rare? Maybe. It seems like a build hint "Make an archaeologist-tribal deck with a few really good artifacts to dig up!" to me though.

omegalul you got kermit'ed

also a pretty cool card, that's a neat way to make tribal matter.

Thanks :)
