: Draw a card, discard a card.
See Challenge # 157.
I don't think this mechanic works as is, but I was looking for something that had a feel of digging up past cards.
For a while I had something like "the bottom card of your graveyard", but obv graveyard order issues.
Or, exile spells as they resolve, if there are N or more, you may cast the oldest.
Alternatively, maybe the ability should be on the spells, not on a creature, like recover?
Hmm, very interesting ability, though possibly quite broken. Cheap cantrips get insane with it, and almost doubling the number of every instant or sorcery is very neat indeed.
Putting it on a spell would make more sense, then it would work like the the Burst cards of Odyssey, or like Kindle, just that you Flashback instead of increase the value.
Maybe like this: Research (As you cast this spell, you may cast a card with the same name from your graveyard. Exile that card)
Not sure if it works though. Btw I might steal that idea for my set, hope you don't mind :P
