Alex happened to mention something, in his comments on making a Code Geas set, about hidden tactics. Or something or other. I have no idea, since this mechanic all the sudden came to me.
The obvious point of making a card like this would be to drive counterspell players nuts. I did think to make the cost uniform (like morph), but decided against it, since I'd love to see a draw-go player sweat it out. Maybe you're gaining control of all creatures. Maybe you're just drawing a card. Who knows. For more fun, toss 3 cards with Subterfuge out at the same time, with no intention of paying for 2 of them.
But, yeah, like split second, there's going to be plenty of times your opponent will want to respond to stuff, but won't know what's going on. I'd love to see someone sacrifice their Scarecrone in response to subterfuge, only to find out that their opponent is putting a Saproling token on the table.
Hee! Cool idea!
