Why shuffle first?

This is supposed to emulate picking a creature type at random from those in the opponent's deck. If they didn't shuffle, it's possible that you'd have information about the top of target player's library, and then it wouldn't be random anymore

I feel like you should be rewarded for that kind of corner case then, not punished

removed words "shuffles, then" before "reveals"

Eh, I tried to keep the spirit of it as much as possible but gameplay-wise you're probably right. Changed it.

As someone who's made dozens of cards based of Aswan Jaguar, I approve of this version... with the exception that the original card was in violation of the color pie ad you don't address that issue.

As-is the card would need to be black. You could move from outright creature destruction to a fight or "bite" effect to keep the card green.

changed from destruction to bite

Changed bite to eat

I was actually thinking to introduce a creature "eating" mechanic at some time, this seems like an appropriate place
