See Precog Responders. and related mechanic

I get how this is supposed to work, but in a vacuum (and even when people see cards like Sapphire Seer) many people will just assume this card is cheaper if you can reveal another Bellowing Thrinax in your hand (which is a reasonable enough mechanic.)

Maybe you should be using another term instead of 'reveal' ('made public'?) Or maybe you should create a new zone? I don't know...

The more I look at this the more I realize it's a bad card, in a vacuum it doesn't really make much sense. Thanks. Might just remove it.
