hide reminder text

If you'd like the ability word to be in italics, you can do that too. On the mechanics page, edit the name to start and end with a star or underscore: "*Primeval*".

Thanks, I just read that on another set.

The flavor is top-notch here even without flavor text. A very tight card concept.

Thanks! Egon might get a card, and I personally like it when important people are referenced on other cards.

Flavor is 10/10, as others said, but I want to comment on this primeval mechanic.

I'd feel extremely salty if I had this card in hand against some creature beating me and got stuck in 6 lands. I'd feel even worse if I drew the seventh land right after casting it.

You must be careful not to make the difference between Primeval/non-Primeval effect too large, as its requisite isn't something players have much control of.

Thanks!

I am careful with it, so far it is only a preliminary number, nothing more. We didn't want it to be too easy nor too hard to get the threshold, hence 7 lands. If it's too demanding I will change it to 6 and test it again.
