Nice! Does this cost 16 to cast? I assume not, because the effect only applies on the battlefield...

Yup, you can drop it for zero (and probably will, unless there's a powerblast around) - but then it sits there just begging you to animate it.

And, you know, messing up fireballs and such.

All instances of X as a variable on all cards in all zones are replaced by 4. Clearer?

Cleaer, but less fun. The reminder/flavour text covers it, I think.

Yikes, "{x} is {4}" is very different to "X is 4". The former only affects mana. Don't do that.

Oops yes, that was overzealous templating on my part.

"red"?

No rocks in it, either.

Does flavour text have to make sense? Is that a rule now?

Hmm, I should fix the renderer so that parens in flavour text don't get un-italicised.

BTW, "X is 4" was very cool, "{x} is {4}" worked albeit far less cool, but "X is {4}" doesn't even make sense.

Yes, that was kinda odd.

Wanted an olde worlde jug of booze. Closest art I could fine: forex.

Amusingly; this art then makes this a social commentary card about the foreign exchange price-fixing 'scandal' (can business-as-usual really be a scandal?)

Maybe it should cost {4} instead of XXXX
