For Challenge # 038

I wanted something in black. Compromised and went black, blue. It's probably still far too good, though. Not sure what a fair cost is, given the sorta culmulative upkeep.

The idea being that you can hold onto your superior position, at a cost of life (that being black's thing) but eventually have to give up and it all backfires (also black's thing)

Ooh, that's pretty awesome. It's certainly very powerful, but also vulnerable, if one naturalise can let everything out of pandora's box again. I wouldn't like to say for sure it was fair, (there's probably some degenerate combo I've not spotted) but it seems about right!

It's unfortunate that we can't use 1.5 life. 2 life seems too harsh, and 1 life seems to easy. Still, I like the card.
