Hmm. So I can pay {u} to loot once, or {1}{u}{u}{u} to loot twice, or {2}{u}{u}{u}{u}{u} to loot three times. Curious.

Contrarian!

Librarian!

(I have a book on SWORDS! You WILL read it! Contrarian Librarian COMMANDS it!)

Contrarian!

Librarian!

(Also, you can only pay the extra to loot multiple times if you do it on your turn; when tapping creatures matters. That's a pretty big downside. Still, nice option to have.)

@Alex, that wouldn't work: the second tie Imbue tries to resolve, the creature has no abilities anym-- Oh! Imbue isn't meant to transfer. Gotta fix that!

@Vitenka For NWO reasons, I couldn't make it an instant-speed thing. I was tempted to make it "only during a main phase", but that seems a recipe for confusion.

Ah, "other" abilities. Sensible change :)

Would still work if you have two other creatures, one of which also has imbue, though.

I think I'm fine with that sort of shenanigans.

It's pretty rare you'd want to (have the mana to) use it more than twice a turn anyway. So yeah, nifty.

CONTRARIAN!
LIBRARIAN!!
