For Challenge # 101. Reveal your library, indeed. I was forced to use that wording, since "Target opponent searches your library" was bound to result in a 'fail to find'. Obvious flavor of "But if you try sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need." was too obvious. Didn't really know how to boil that down enough to allude to it, without pointing right at it. Ah well.

Mmm. "Search for a card" isn't allowed to "fail to find", but "search for cards with different names" is.

From the name I thought this was going to go "You choose a card that doesn't have one of those names and put it into your hand". But this way works too.
