­Amnesia + Baruch, Lost in Memory

Ah, amnesia. A really good word, lost to a really bad card. At least it has a relevant effect; if only it didn't cost six. Forced discard.

And a mythic djinn-stats who lets you dig. And also talks about memory.

Well, there's serendipity for you. And gosh; no-one's taken that word yet. What should it do? make opponents discard. And.. then what? Dig for those? Why not. I can use the name that way nicely.

Legendary creature; mythic. Casting other player's cards is also splashy enough to warrant rare+.

But opponents can usually easily avoid the effect; so that reduces the cost - let's be really aggressive and push it down so that the effect does become relevant.

Ok, so, cmc 3 - I think spider stats instead of square stats. And... ugh; I'm gonna hate myself for this, but the wording "At the start of your upkeep, you may have..." is just too much. This would be way better as a sorcery activation; and that's what planeswalkers are for.

So... um... is this a creature or a planeswalker?

It's a planeswalker now. Only; uh.. what the heck? It's gained a VERY odd loyalty. That's an edit bug, Alex.

Reprod steps: Create as a creature; (2/4), change mind and select planeswalker, hit preview. (loyalty shows up as 4) decide to change it to 3, hit confirm - everything looks sane, but now you make me look it's done this. And the edit box still only shows '3', so I can't fix it.

Oh... hmm... right. Yes, the "power" box is hidden while type planeswalker is selected, but it's not blanked, so that if you accidentally make a creature a planeswalker then undo it its power doesn't disappear.

I guess that is a bug. Thing is sometimes people want both numbers to appear in a planeswalker's field; I think of Jeska, Mending Medium.

For a workaround for the moment, you can make the power box reappear temporarily by selecting any type other than planeswalker (deleting the "r" on the end).

get rid of colons

I like that this is a planeswalker with flavor text and no ultimate. That entertains me.
