This is a lot like persist/undying, but obviously mote universal. It's also very dangerous. I would definitely build a deck around this if it were printed.

I think you have to say "that creature's controller", otherwise it's not entirely clear whether "it" refers to the creature that dealt damage or the Water-Lizard of Ib.

Would it work if he had retained the "would be destroyed" wording?

Now that wording definitely doesn't work. The "dies" ability is a trigger on going to the graveyard, but...nothing can go to the graveyard!

The original card: "Creature cards in your graveyard may attack and block as if they were on the battlefield. If a creature card in your graveyard would be destroyed, exile it."

I think it's one of those things where, yeah, it could work, but it's easier to just go about things a different way without getting cute and extra-flavorful.

That is to say, this basically works the same as:

If a creature card would be put into your graveyard from anywhere, return it to the battlefield with a ghoul counter on it instead.
Whenever a creature with a ghoul counter on it would be destroyed, exile it instead.

I don't think my wording is totally correct, but I think you get the point.

This card borders on silver-bordered land. But can it work?

I'm not entrenched in the mythos, but this seems extremely conservative. The set-up is extremely slow, especially for a 5-drop, and all I get is some gussied up Village Survivors?

And I probably don't even get that, because I just let my opponent hit me five times AFTER playing a 5-drop and now I'm dead.

I think you're going to have to go Eldrazi big with the reward, otherwise this is more "cruel joke" than "fun card".

So... Tattermunge Maniac wasn't good enough?

Um. Wow.

Candidate for "You will anyway!" flavour text, early on. I guess late game it gets eaten, but.

I'm gonna jump straight onto "Far too aggressively costed" (Was {u} at the time. At {1} {u} seems much fairer.)
