Another Mutato Devil fix for Challenge # 068

Really, I probably should have made this pure red; and given it its green justification through guild flavour. I imagine this in a set with white getting "All my creatures are the same type" style boosts.

And... gah. I can't find a good wording to make it really REALLY clear that it only targets one thing. It's just "X damage where" but that wording is terrible. So this card is still bad. (And puts direct damage in green, which is ALSO bad.)

Consider this both my "Fixed" and "Please fix it" entry ;)

The way to word that will probably start "Choose target creature or player." After that it can go a few ways. One of those is "X, where X is". If you don't want that, then another would be "~ deals damage to that creature or player equal to the number of creatures you control with a creature type that no other creature has".

Neither come out terribly nicely worded though. And this way I do have the damage coming from a bunch of different sources.

If you really want it all from different sources then that offers yet another wording:

> Choose target creature or player. Each creature you control that has a creature type which no other creature has deals 1 damage to the chosen creature or player.
