Hee. I particularly like that he loses the ability to loot when he turns into a Crucible of Worlds.

Oops, I meant to include a way to transform back.

Oh, I think I preferred it without.

What's the point without a way to get lands into the graveyard? If you have other ways, it will stay transformed; otherwise, you get your looter back.

I assume V is saying that more powerful isn't always more interesting.

I felt it was more interesting to have "Ok, I can discard a land, and if I do I can still play it - but if I do that it's the last time I can use this. But if I discard something else, I can use this again and try for something better than what I got this time"

Which seemed like a much more interesting decision than "Always discard a land, just like I would if it didn't transform and also let me play that land so in fact it's not really discarding it, is it?"
