For Challenge # 030

Not quite "different types", but I like the way DFC lets you have a spell flip that otherwise would be annoying to remember which mode it was in. It would be even more evident if it were a global enchantment on both sides, but a) that problem is solved with "on your turn/not on your turn" wording and b) for this challenge, I wanted an enchantment/aura.

In fact, both this and Rampant Bears really want to be like split cards and have the characteristics of both sides while they're not in play, but that would be a bigger rules change, so I went with "can cast either side". That's not strictly necessary, but I like the idea this can be played as either R or W and flipped later.

This card inspired Diffuse Essence.

Thanks!

I would totally keyword "You may cast either side..." That's insanely useful. Both these cards are great too, but my brain hurts at the thought that the white side doesn't just give the creature +0/+2.

"You may cast either side" has already been keyworded: it's called "split cards" :P

Split cards that have some way of then turning into the other half of the split isn't done though; so you could equally keyword that bit of it instead :)
