So, lets play into the eldrazi hatred for even spells. I couldn't think of a mechanic, so I figure, an ability word, "wise", which refers to any ability which cares positively about your even costs.
See Challenge # 155.

As an ability the idea just feels kind of silly. Like Coiling Oracle and Counterspell are fine but not Mesa Enchantress? or Murder?
If even cmc and odd cmc cards were distributed along such tribal lines as eldrazi and non-eldrazi then it'd makese sense
