yeah sorry haven't gotten around to actually fixing this card yet, I just noticed it didn't have a rarity at all and that was like a 2-second fix. I'll get around to this.
You; uh; didn't make the horrific wording change that was the impetus for raising this to uncommon.
It's a shame Magic makes it so difficult to express some ideas. "That attacking creature? Give it paralyze" seems like a perfectly simple idea.
Fixed the cost, that was always a typo. I just thought a stickbug was neat! Made for a good cryptid in Disco Elysium, thought it could work here too. I'm still trying to decide what I want to do with Sighting, but I'm also not quite happy with it yet.
Huh; this is an interesting tweak on modular. Occuring on ETB instead of death makes it a lot less flexible; and so you have to consider keeping some of the tokens spread about rather than piling them all on a single super-creature. Decisions like that are good.
Haste counters are kind of weird for that - once you have one, you probably don't need another one. So this is more of an enabler than a core part of the mechanic. Seems like a nice card to me.
Mmm, this is at last a bear for
which is too cheap. There's also no reason to ever evoke it, since it's no cheaper.
Apart from that - I've no idea what the theme behind giant stick insects is. Granting a +1 is a perfectly reasonable thing for a small green creature to do, though.
The mana cost for hard-casting seems too low.
A cool thing with sighting you could do is put the card N cards from the top of the library to avoid shuffling and also make it so early sightings lead to repeat sightings. You'd need to be careful about repetitiveness though.
This needs a timing e. g. any of these
I'm a fan of using verbs as keyword actions, so I suggest the second one. You then also can do some cool stuff on higher rarities with it, e. g. "If ~ would die, crystalize instead, then put it into your graveyard." or "
: Crystalize." etc.
