­Phyrexian Librarian + SkyCharm UtiliRune ... Can I get a do-over on that selection? Madness! Ok, ok, breath. What do they have in common? Aha! They're both uncommon. That... doens't really help. They're both completely bonkers? Ok, they both can affect cards in your library, let's work with that.

Leave some punnery in the name, and done.

Despite Alex's permission to have the effect be "~ is a bannana".

I am right that the need to have a target limits the use of this as a library stripper (while not removing it) as well as it being a usable enchantment bouncer, if removing stuff from library is a cost to you?

Oh.. damn. You can always just never invoke it, and it's a probably-oversized body at the cost for blue. Tarnation. Downsized 3/3->2/3

Hmm. Unfortunately if there are any Auras to target, you can activate this 15 times in response to itself to mill your entire deck. Which is a bit easier than Wizards tend to make that effect.

A way around that which also gets more elements of the UtiliRune into this: Make the ability cost {t} as well, and add "and untap ~" to the otherwise clause.
