You know,
looks kinda funny.
Changed wording- Now it's like Chorus of the Conclave.
Nope. See my comment on 23rd July. You can't sacrifice opponents' creatures.
They way it works right now, it's basically a Plague Wind: I sacrifice all of your creatures. It needs to be limited somehow.
Much better. It's a pity to lose the funky wording from Sphinx of - I look at the top card of my library - Jwar Isle, but I think it's sensible in this case.
Is this better? It's more what I originally intended, but then I was seduced by Sphinx of Jwar Isle.
You could do either of those, yes. They wouldn't catch things like reanimation or blinking, that the current wording is trying to catch, but that may be a necessary casualty.
That's a funky twist on Future Sight. The "once per turn" is a sensible restriction to keep it sane.
I fear the mechanic will need adjusting, though, because virtually nothing lets you look at cards on top of a library without letting you put them back in any order - because people are generally prone to reorder cards they're looking at. This is particularly bad from that point of view for letting you do it at any time.
Oooh, you're right. Couldn't it be "whenever you cast a creature spell?" Or could I word it something like Chorus of the Conclave?
Clone doesn't target because it needs to ETB as the thing it's cloning. Similarly this needs to modify the creature-ETBing event, so it can't say "Whenever". I fear it needs to say "If a creature you control would ETB".
I may make this the ability of a legend in Dienoct or one of the following sets.
Well, now it has something to do with the mana it makes. I'm not really sure where I want to go with this card. I just thought it was an interesting effect, to be honest.
Changed
to colorless.
I did worry about it being too good, but I hoped the drawback of it revealing your hand to your opponent would help balance it. I also thought that the "downtime" when it's just a 1/1 would make it vulnerable, but there isn't really much of a downtime at all, is there?
I definitely like the idea of something like this, but I think it's in a weird spot at the moment. Is it supposed to be enabling fancy infinite combos, or acting like a pseudo-hexproof, or both? Would it make sense to go for a cheaper cost, a cheaper mana repayment, and some other ability so it's not completely useless until you play another spell?
Putting this effect on an equipment is a very interesting idea because it means you can combine the free spell ability with any creature you like, which opens more possibilities than spellwild ouphe, etc.
However, while I love this version for the tantalising feeling that if I can find a spell that targets a creature and draws one or two cards, I may well be able to go infinite, I feel it may be more fun if this could come down on turn 2 or 3 and enable a steady stream of smaller effects over the course of the game, with maybe a big infinite effect as a back-up plan?
Definitely a nice, idea, but compare the power level to Elvish Piper: this does almost the same thing, but can activate on effectively turn 2 (if it triggers in your opponent's upkeep)? Tweaks previously used for this sort of thing have been: make it target opponents hands only; add a mana cost to the activation; make you discard the card (possibly with replacement, or instead key off a card from the top of your deck)?
Reworded without targeting
I agree not targetting is nearly unheard of, but clone is one of the things that doesnt, presumably (a) so it doesnt fizzle and (b) because it doesnt DO anything to that permanent. So if you keep this wording you could just say "any permanent". Or just make it automatically give the maxkimum of any permanent?
