­Offalsnout + Wild Outburst

So; a grave-eating piggy you can oneshot, and bolt a creature and its controller with... hmm, kinda sorta flashback but only if you pay a LOT when you first cast it.

We could go megatrample? The Ball Lightning ability? Oooh... that works interestingly.

Rarity. Power level is pretty high; probably uncommon or beyond. Complexity is also about that; it's modal, and blocking it is unusual. Impact... it's a bomb. But many things are bombs.

This could be pushed down to uncommon, or squeezed up to rare (just add flavour). I'm gonna say uncommon.

Do you mean flash? Maybe you mean haste?

It'll be a rare circumstance when I want to pay a 5th mana to get a 3/3 haste for one turn. Compare Arc Runner (the common, non-trampling Ball Lightning).

The "damage you when you block me" ability is very nifty, though. I can't think where I've seen it before, except perhaps Greatbow Doyen.

I agree it's rare you're gonna want to pay the one extra. But when you need that 3 damage unblockably (and another 3, blockably) right now, you've got it. That's probably worth the extra cost - I can't in good conscience cost the megatrample ability down at {2}{r}.

It's just a touch stronger than "~ can deal damage as though unblocked" - like, um Tornado Elemental has (also Close Quarters but that affects all your stuff)

I... guess I should remove the "and sacrifice it" bit; that loses the source card though.

um, yeah; flash and haste are different things, aren't they.
