Forgot the picture.
Oh... The picture is now just a tree. Well, look at Challenge # 010 to see the full art.
I wanted to use one of the harder/ less interesting arts, but I didn't really want to tackle the apple. The people look bored, represented by the tapping, and I thought I've give them something more interesting by drawing some cards.
Yowch. Tap 5 untapped lands in addition to the 5 mana you need to cast it? If your opponent is tapping out each turn, that means you can't do it till turn 10?
Also, the additional cost will work, but it'd confuse a lot of people. Particularly evil that you can use this to neutralise a tapper or pinger out of nowhere, and it happens too fast for them to respond, even though this is a sorcery.
I do like evil, though.
I could always reduce the numbers. Or do you think the concept just won't work?
In some Magic games, 5 untapped creatures on any side of the board is a little rare. I'd leave it at "tap 5 untapped permanents" and leave it at that. I do like how this taps out lands, and your opponent can't do anything about it. Very few interactions would do that.
By the by, that apple is an enigma. I added it to the challenge because it was taunting me.
Changed 5 creatures and 5 lands to just 5 permanents.
