I love the design but it might be a bit too wordy for a common. :-/
This may be too wordy period. Also black doesn't return noncreature artifacts from the graveyard.
That's a stretch I'm more than fine with making here.
I mean, I could see artifact creature, but black has never done it with artifact. It's a significant part of its color pie after all.
And black has never gotten a land back except for Grim Discovery. In an artifact set, black gets to care about artifacts a little bit more, and this is a mechanical stretch that feels right at home in this set.
Why not simply make it similar to Grim Discovery then and simplify the card immensely?
Because unlike this card, Grim Discovery is not likely to get back two creatures.
I'm fine with moving it to uncommon for complexity, but our discussion is only about whether this ability falls within black's pie.
Yeah, but "returning land cards to the hand" in aprticular is not really part of any color's identity.
I think leaving as it is is fine in
, but you're right, in its current iteration it's not a common. It'd be fine at uncommon.
I'd say if any colors were the ones that should get land back from the graveyard, it'd be
