by SecretInfiltrator:

that creature/flash part should be its separate ability (pargraph) and be at the beginning of the text.

The word "nonsnow" contains no hyphen. The hyphens appear for subtypes since those are capitalized and "nonGoblin" apparently is bad English. :)

Also there is a new card that suggests the main text could be "Destroy target nonsnow permanent that is an artifact or enchantment." It helps to avoid repeating the same term a lot.

Followed SecretInfiltrator's wording advice. Fwiw, I don't like how

by Sorrow:

bleh, I wanted to say that I don't like using "permanent that is an artifact or enchantment" because that just sounds weird when read. Like, the meaning doesn't seem any more or less unclear than "destroy descriptor type X or descriptor type Y," but descriptor permanent type x or type y just sounds weird when said aloud. I acknowledge that repeating words is also very annoying though.

Removed "If you control a snow creature, you may cast Yeti's Assault as though it had flash. " and added clause that allows control of a snow creature to target any artifact or enchantment. While lacking flavor, this choice was made due to the number of snow enchantments in the set and lack of universal artifact and enchantment removal in green at common.

by Tahazzar:

This is an annoying card to read through. Maybe simplify it a bit?

For example I could see

> Yeti's Assault {2} {g}
> Snow Sorcery
> ~ costs less to cast if it targets a snow permanent or if you control a snow creature.
> Destroy target artifact or enchantment.

Snow on nonpermanent types isn't really a thing btw, but I guess it's an expansion of the mechanic.

Removed "Destroy target nonsnow permanent that is an artifact or enchantment. If you control a snow creature, you may destroy target artifact or enchantment instead." Removed snow supertype as I could not justify the supertype with any new ability. The card ended up antisnow.
