For Challenge # 001.
That could be absolutely brutal. It's also strange, in of the fact that it hoses players with big creatures... something Wizards tries to avoid doing. That being the case, this card does hit Scalpy and Delerium right on the nose.
I think there's a place for hosing big creatures. It has been a while since Reprisal and Intrepid Hero were regularly reprinted, although Big Game Hunter wasn't that long ago. Fun mashup: I would have expected the default to be to make Delirium the damage-trigger of Scalpelexis, rather than combining them both into an instant like this, which is perhaps a more interesting option.
why not use the "repeat this process" wording from Scalpelexis ? Interesting version though, well done
I worried that players would think "repeat this process" would mean they should tap another creature.
