For Challenge # 082. You know, I don't think I've seen a card that chooses players at random, so I ran this up the flagpole. It's supposed to look terrible if you normally play one-on-one matches, but gets better with multiplayer. Originally, I had this a sorcery... but I thought it would be more interesting to watch the player try to protect the Host, until there were less players in play. I'd be lying if I didn't think Flickering this guy in the desperate hopes for emergency cards was kind of funny, too.

Going by Goblin Test Pilot, this could be "target player chosen at random", I think.

One of the cards that makes you want to Donate Ivory Masks and then yoink them back at appropriate intervals. Which is a fun state to be in.

Whenever I think of "target player chosen at random", I can't help but recall a very memorable incident where I fired off the ultimate on Jace, the Mind Sculptor... forgetting that one of my opponents had Grip of Chaos on the table. We randomised who'd get hit, and it ended up... myself. 3 turns later, I died, killed by my own planeswalker.

Ah, that's right. I forgot about the test pilot. Oh well... I guess they're still in vaguely different mindspaces, though.
