Almost every player has a 6-sided die, right?
Sadly I came up with the concept and then felt uninspired regarding the actual effects.
The last effect is probably too punishing. I think that returning it to the hand instead would be fair.
People dislike random chance of pain at all - I can see the point; but this would be better if every possibility was at least a small upside.
"Draw a card and lose 1 life" is definitely upside! I mean, that's why people play Necropotence, and Greed, and Phyrexian Arena, and Underworld Connections, and Sign in Blood, and Painful Truths...
Seems like the 4th and 5th entries are the wrong way round, though. "Untap target permanent" is mainly blue but reasonable for green, but Crack the Earth is definitely red.
Hmm. I hadn't meant to line then up exactly to colors, but now that you point that out it's annoying.
Sixth ability was "Shuffle this into your library"
