Fortune: As you draw this card, exile it face down. You may look at and play this card from exile for its fortune cost until your next upkeep. Return it to your hand from exile at the beginning of your next upkeep. Used on 1 cards: Inflict Unluck

Fortune incentivizes slamming down cards as soon as you play them. No more holding up mysterious cards; they get played ASAP.

Wager: Shuffle, then exile the top card of your library. At the beginning of your upkeep, put a stake counter on it. Turn it face up at any time. When you do, if it has stake counters greater than its mana cost, cast it without paying its mana cost. Used on 0 cards:

Wager is a cheat mechanic that forces players to make important decisions regarding when to flip up wagered cards. Is it that one drop you drafted? Is it the top of your curve? Who knows?!




In card text or details pages, write the mechanic's code name (playtest name) between square brackets, like "[Crittercast]", "[Bushido 1]" or "[Delay 4 {2}{R}{R}]". It will be expanded to the mechanic's name plus reminder text, such as "Suspend 4 – {2}{r}{r}. (Rather than cast this spell from your hand,...)"
To expand a mechanic's name but not its reminder text, include parentheses at the end of the square brackets: "[Crittercast()]", "[Delay 9 {R}()]".
