This card (and a few others) have no creator...?

Whoever you are, I'm guessing you know that messing with the stack is taboo? It's fun on custom cards sometimes, though. This is an amusing design. What color do you intend it to be?

I don't know what color or mana cost, which is why I wrote {?}, but my guess is blue. However, I don't care that messing with the stack is taboo; I think it is OK.

I think here we find an explanation of the difference in perspective that lead to that whole conversation about changing the comp-rules into executable code.

The other perspective is that magic is a story-simulation - and the stack is a weird implementation detail behind the scenes; that lets "I counter this, in response I counter your counter" mostly work as expected. Rather than an explicit object that you can manipulate.

Still - maybe with a sufficiently creative creative this sort of thing can be represented. Maybe present it as something like messing with time, to deliberately cause a paradox?

To explain Link's original observation: I think that happens when someone creates a card by importing data. In an individually owned set that's no particular big deal, but it does look a bit odd in a communal set like this one.

@Vitenka, I don't think so: I make cards that mess with the rules like this with at least some frequency. zzo38 have some sort of fundamental break in understanding each other, but it's not with this. I understand and indulge in the temptation.

@Alex that makes sense.
