For Challenge # 078
This time I got 5 for 1R. I toyed with some other ideas (flame slash plus one), but came back to the idea of bounce in red. We all know that bounce has to be better in blue, but is there any subset of bounce which could be more red?
How about, based on damage. Specifically, that it can bounce two small creatures or one medium-to-large creature, which is often better in a tempo match, but (as always) red is helpless against giant monsters?
Ooh... that's a really strong sorcery. I would definately play it alongside cards like Wood Elves as a sometimes sideways Curfew. That said, it doesn't look broken... and it ain't returning no titans... but it's an excellent way to sue for time, which red isn't very keen on. My mono-red Golems deck would love this thing.
Fascinating! I like it a lot. Often it'll be Peel from Reality, sometimes it'll be more or less. Nifty.
