For Challenge # 065. I wanted to put something that either put illusions onto the battlefield, or bolstered illusions, but I figured the simplest execution would probably pull the idea across best. The feeling to this set is high mellodrama, and focuses on capricious 'gods' that refuse to allow something as simple as 'consequences' get in the way of their goals. Lots of Deus ex Machina effects thrown around liberally... most people assume the Gods must be crazy. I figured 'Suspend Disbelief' was the simplest execution I could pull out of that world. Players just won't die, even when confronted with ridiculous odds. Obviously, you have to be careful when putting the effect on too many cards... but really, it isn't much different than a bunch of expensive fog effects. If you play too many, then you will eventually lose... it's just a matter of time.
LOL. Awesome.
Angel's Grace as a common keyword mechanic? I think it might be more suitable for a rare cycle.
Angel's Grace as a common keyword mechanic. It was only made rare because the idea, in itself, is new... but it isn't confusing, nor is it more dangerous than Safe Passage. See also Flicker and Mistform Ultimus.
Mm; fair enough, good point well made.
