Why do you tap the die first? There should be an inherent rule that rolling a die expends it from your dice pool
"Roll an unrolled psionic die"?
I actually don't like that you add the dice to a pool when they are also actually tied to a specific creature rather than being "pooled".
@dude1818
Because like other things that untap, you regain your dice at the start of your turn.
@SecretInfiltrator
The dice aren't individually tied to specific creatures. Each creature with Psionic just contributes one to your pool.
I think I'd agree that it makes sense for rolling to implicitly remove a die from your pool ueot.
But I think some word other than 'tapping' would be sensible. Since in magic, tapping is irrevocably tied to turning sideways, which doesn't really work with a die. And even if rolling implicitly taps; you probably want the concept since that way you can have psionic acitons that use up some dice but don't need a roll.
If the dice aren't tied to the creatures, then when a cretaure dies you can always sacrifice a rolled die; is your intention?
Ah, I hadn't really thought that through, Vitenka.
