The problem with ripple is that there's no room for flavor text. In this case, it would probably just be "grraAAAHHH!!!!!" (You know, because it's getting bigger?)
Ripple 3 is kind of tricky. I wonder how often it would work. with some deck manipulation, I'd assume quite often.
It's funny. You almost want ripple cards to be bad so that people have a chance to draft multiples of them. I had the pleasure once of drafting 6 Surging Dementias once... a card that most people don't touch because it isn't worth it. With 6 in a 40 card deck however, it was murderous. On turn 2, I'd smash 3-4 cards out of my opponent's hand on average. Crazy.
Anyhow, if the card can't be bad, I do approve of the card being narrow.
isn't that hard to cobble together, but I can understand how this wouldn't be a first pick.
