If you perform algebra this is intended to basically become Final Judgment, but I don't know if I have it worded correctly to support that. Also, I know algebra is probably the worst and possibly wonkiest mechanic I've ever made.

reduced cmc by {1} and made it so attacking creatures return at your next endstep

2016-05-29 07:27:13: Sorrow edited Unsolvable Equation:

went back to cmc {6}

Removed algebra as no longer in white. I hope this ability still works like I want it to, that the Time Stop portion keeps the creatures off the battlefield. In order to find a way to include that portion and now have the card just be "exile all creatures" I brought on the need to have Unsolvable Equation be upgraded (which is centered in white).

"Exile all attacking creatures. At the beginning of your next end step, if ~ isn't upgraded, return all creatures exiled this way to the battlefield under their owner's control at the beginning of your next end step. (Not this end step.)"

I don't think the double end step trigger is really worth the memory issues. Delaying it all the way to your end step is already essentially a Time Walk.

Hmm, that loses the blue aspect. I'll probably just have to make something entirely new.

no longer exiles attacking creatures ueot with the possibility of perma-exiling them. New card. Also reduced CMC by 1.

2017-01-17 20:32:45: Sorrow edited Unsolvable Equation:

No longer "When ~ ETBs exile target non-land permanent. Sacrifice ~:Gain life and counter target spell with a CMC equal to the exiled permanent. ." Felt too close to Simulation Infiltration.

Still unsatisfied. Removed "Tap X target creatures. Until end of turn opponents can't cast spells with a converted mana cost of X and creatures with a power of X or less can't attack."

I'm not sure if this is finished, but I like this version!

Maybe this is better: "Put target creature on the bottom of its owner's library. You draw cards equal to that creature's power." (like Vanish into Memory)
