I don't know if it's even worth the bother to go over the cards from Hex. For example, a card called "Murder" in that game destroys a creature ("troop"), is an instant ("quick action"), and it pretty much costs (mana cost, which is split into a "resource cost" and a "threshold", works slightly differently). Oh yeah, and the colors are pretty much the same as well. I'm not kidding. No wonder they got sued.
This card doesn't necessarily have memory issues if you place it on the "sidelines", upside-down, or whatever. Rules text should mayhaps put some emphasis on that with some new state / mechanic though.
I assume the solution of choice would be an ability word. But the design pretty much stands and falls with the execution of the mechanic, so that's where you should put some focus.
