Created for Challenge # 058. Created from the first half of this absurd generation:

Creature - Drake (2/1, blue)
Flying
(4)(U)(U/B)(U/B)(U/B)(U/B): put a 1/1 blue Merfolk creature token onto the battlefield
Sacrifice six Merfolk: return target Plains to its owner's hand
(U), Sacrifice ~this~, sacrifice any number of Merfolk: that many lands gain "At the beginning of your upkeep, put a time counter on target permanent" and "(U)(U), Pay 1 life: return each creature with a time counter on it to its owner's hand" and "Each creature with a time counter on it gets -2/-0" until end of turn

See Rootwater Corrupter for the second half.

Ha! Sometimes I wish my cards had absurd lines of text so that, in the very rare oppurtunity when sacrificing six Merfolk to return a Plains comes up, I can feel like a champion.

I like this card. It's a good token maker... but more importantly, it's a reasonable LD supporter. There aren't isn't LD support out there that's fair. I hate it when a non-basic land gets out of control in our Modern Magical times and there's no proper way to respond to it, since LD is too inefficient. I don't want cheap LD... I just want something that could see play. ­
