by Link:

See Snake and Challenge # 145.

I went through several different iterations on the trigger, my favorite of which was "whenever a creature an opponent controls attacks," but I felt there wasn't a satisfying cost for the power level.

by Alex:

I like it. Seems strong, but not always strictly better than Typhoid Rats. Interesting to compare with Khalni Garden.

by Link:

Thank you. Given the garden I think it's in roughly the right power space.

by Jack V:

Yeah, I like it. Potentially strong for a land, but clearly in line with those other cards.

ETA: And I like the flavour, a land that produces a snake is a good use for the "snake pit" concept.
