Any Thoughts on this Shrine creature?
Interesting. It regenerates bigger, but resets everything else. And only if you have shrines.
It's... kinda like the undying ability; but also kinda not (since this works again and again, but needs mana)
And it's aggressively costed - but gold, so it's kinda CMC3?
I reckon it's worth a try.
One thing to note - you're gonna need a fair whack of non-shrine creatures to pad things out. And this can almost be one of them - it's good enough without that ability; if you have the right mana.
Yes, i have calculated the amount of shrine on this first set, compared to Scars of mirrodins "Metal Craft" and it will be about the same.
I have also figured out that the % to get a shrine creature card in a booster in a draft. will be about 17% which i findokey. But i will fix the numbers
Templating suggestion:
> When ~ dies, if you control three or more Shrines, you may pay
. If you do, return ~ to the battlefield with two +1/+1 counters on it.
I like it. It reminds me of Undying too, but is balanced by the way you need to keep two mana up (of specific colours).
