Inspired by this "The Thing" inspired card that was recently posted on /r/custommagic/

Lots of bookkeeping unfortunately, but what can you do.

"Horror" -> "Shapeshifter"

noting instead of naming

+{2} to mana cost

2018-03-23 12:48:28: Tahazzar edited Covert Contagion:

-{1} to mana cost, +{1} to activated ability cost

Maybe the second ability would be better as ?

> {3}{b}{b}: Turn target creature with a name noted with ~ face down. You gain control of it. (It's a 2/2 creature.)

Maybe, "exile, then manifest"?

EDIT: Applying the change... Was:

> {4}{b}{b}: Exile target creature with a name noted with ~. Create a 3/3 black Shapeshifter creature token.

activated ability now uses manifest

There doesn't seem to be a reminder text for [manifest] in this site. I had to add one manually on the card :|

Are you supposed to manifest the creature or Covert Contagion?

Oh yeah, d'oh.

"it" -> "that creature"
