Fuun-kyyy

­:)

Obviously using the enchant line template pioneered by Spellweaver Volute, but to end up with something a bit more like Prototype Portal. It's obviously pretty wacky. What can you do with it? Who knows. It's quite nasty with Executioner's Capsule, but so is Glissa, the Traitor, which now I come to think of it this card also behaves a bit like.

My favourite idea so far: You could put one on a Lifespark Spellbomb and one on an Executioner's Capsule to get "{2}{b}: Destroy target land."

Or enchant Sharuum the Hegemon with Triskelion also in the graveyard for infinite 5/5 flying creatures and infinite damage to creatures and players.

BTW, I like that in some ways the "enchant card in a graveyard" feels more natural on this than on the volute.

Nice combo!

use "dies" wording

If I wanted to distance this from Skyscrap Hangar more, I could give change the trigger from "a nontoken creature dies" to "an opponent loses life" or something like that.
