Reactivate is an unfortunate name for a mechanic that has nothing to do with activated abilities.
I came here expecting a land from the cardname. :)
I m not an English speaking person. I mean with reactivate, the fact that system of the machine were off, and slowly restart themselves with the time. Is the word reactivate not the one for this?
Lost Mine would be better to describe an explosive mine?
"Reactivate" is the correct English word. The problem is not one of the English language. In the game of Magic certain words have special meaning e. g. "trigger", "cast", "die", "activate".
Since "activate" is a fundamental important term of Magic, related words like "reactivate" will always carry that baggage.
Maybe there is another word you'd like, to. "reinstate"? "reestablish"? "refresh"?
None of those words fit a machine powering up. I'd say reboot, but that's too sci fi rather than fantasy. What about hibernate? And when you remove the last counter, it awakens
I also thought it was this kind of mine, thus a land. Maybe call it Forgotten Landmine to remove the ambiguity
Changed the Reactivate Ability, I must change it to the other cards too.
Thank you for your comments! :-)
