Now this is an interesting trigger - hopefully it's fully functional... Maybe "Whenever a card is put (or returned) into your hand" would be more traditional? Though I have to say that sounds more "mechanical" where as this "increases" sounds more natural and evocative IMO.

I moved Hither Shore Warden to next set and this is the replacement card for that slot.

The name of the card is currently somewhat of a placeholder.

I think the "put into your hand version" is probably more accurate.

Personally, if I were to update Magic wording, I'd use the "enters"/"leaves" terminology to apply for all zones. "Enters your hand", "leaves your graveyard", "enters exile", etc.

Not a fan of that second ability - not only do you not get the mill effect with it because it's on cast, but it's not a card that I want to play when I am running low on cards - I want to play this as soon as possible so I can start milling them.

"a card is put into" & "when ETBs" & "shuffle any number of"

Oops. That second ability not affecting the first was an oversight.

That looks a lot better, with the "any number of".
