Split Card. I would have preferred to have Agony first but then the border colours would've been reversed. Costs may need to be altered.

fix to use the new split card support :)

Oh, very nice symmetry. BB/WW must be very difficult to use, though.

well you don't neccessarily have to use both halves in the one deck. Either half is perfectly fine in a deck with the right colour. I could change the Cost to {2}{b}//{2}{w} so it was more splashable but at the moment I like it as is.

Good point. It felt weird to me that it would almost always only have one half played, and competed over only in deck construction, but yeah, there's no reason why not. Come to think of it, it's not much harder to cast than Unmake in a black/white deck, and I loved Unmake.

Can you get the flavor text to cross cards, so that Agony gets "Agony and ecstasy are both ... one negative and one" and ecstasy gets "heightened states of being, ... positive."

Did my best to get it to come out looking right.

Sadly this will be rather browser-dependent.

yep, unfortunately it will. Looks fine in Firefox though (which I use at home) so I'm happy for now.
