I kind of wanted this to be:

Target player reveals all but one card in his or her hand. You choose a nonland card from it. That player discards that card.

But it felt like it wouldn't play super cleanly and would lengthen games, so I decided against it. The flavor and art don't match up as well as I'd like for my tastes, but I'll take what I can get.

Hooo, that reminds me. I intent to have this card in the eventual LotR set (which would be... 3 sets from now, so yeah, don't keep your hopes up about that one). Obviously, common rarity is out of the question, but it's a super-spikish card so it has lots of appeal in that demographic.
