Oops, good point. Yeah, I don't know.
No, that would make Emrakul cost
, if I read your comment right. lol
Maybe I could make it only do colored creatures... Although man, this would be infuriating with Iona, Shield of Emeria, or Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite, or any of the Praetors, really. sigh
I agree that's very interesting. Play all your creatures as 1/1s for a discount.
How about making creatures spells cost
less where X is their average P/T (or some similar wording that could be templated)? (Or possibly
of any colour less, although I think that would be complicated.) Then you can at least play creatures as 1/1 for a semi-reasonable discount, and it may be too good for some creatures with powerful abilities, but at least it doesn't let you play Emrakul, the Aeons Torn as a 1/1 for
?
Hmm... you know, maybe it can, actually. I think that'd work.
I know this effect is easily broken, which is sad.
I was originally going to put this on a white weenie commander, but having this on a low-cost white creature would never work. Then I considered making it a four-color creature, and then a four-color enchantment, but I couldn't decide what color should be missing. It seems to me it should be red or green, but I can't decide which one.
I added that. Too bad it can't be "As an additional cost to cast Gale Dancer from your hand..."
Stupid rules, messing with my card designs. :)
Nifty! Strong, yet (astonishingly) feels colour-appropriate.
Eeeenteresting. I like it. A bit mad off one of those spells to exile a chunk of your library like Demonic Consultation, but there aren't many of those.
I think at the moment the "normal" additional cost will need paying when this comes off suspend, which makes the suspend fairly pointless. There's probably a way to phrase that to have it work; perhaps just "As an additional cost to cast ~, if you cast it from your hand, ..."
How is the timing sequence meant to work here? Which choices are meant to be made on announcement, and which on resolution?
If the spell's controller's choice is to be made on resolution, then the lands and creatures can't be targeted properly. If it's meant to be made on announcement, then the phrasing is very confusing... I think it's going to be very hard to word sanely, but it might have to be something like:
> Choose target spell. That spell's controller chooses one -- counter that spell; or let you choose one -- draw; or bounce; or mythspin.
I agree. The card is, overall, a joke, but the ability could be kind of fun.
I think "put a token onto the battlefield that's a copy of target creature except it's 1/1" really should have been a spell already, like a reverse Quicksilver Gargantuan.
Vaguely disturbing when you think about it. Made funny again, when I think of someone saying "Martha! Don't lie to me! I know that's not my child! He has islandwalk for christ's sake!"
Someone gets the jokes that are this and Dragon Daddy, right?
Oops. You know, this seemed familiar, but I just couldn't call Wild Ricochet to mind when making it. I'll change the wording and the mana cost accordingly.
Wild Ricochet, fractionally more restrictive, but for 1 mana less. Pretty aggressively costed.
