Yes. Long story, I forgot how Magic spelled "specter." Since this set was inspired by Victorian England, I figured that the creature's name could use the UK English spelling.
Also, is this a British English pun? Is specter (ghost) not spelled with an -re?
Is this supposed to say "this turn" anywhere?
Once again, Spectre on the streets, Specter on the sheets.
YOLO, I'm only changing the type spelling, not the name spelling.
I never understood where the turn ` win came from? Later game, when you're missing a single combo piece, yes. I'm a bit concerned now when taking the risk of playing that card should occur. Turn seven or later, probably. Is turn six too early. I feel turn three is definitely too early. I don't know about turns 4 or and 5, but I would think too early.
Repeatable removal, even if conditional, shouldn't be common since it can be backbreaking. However, looking through the set, I don't see that many cards that this could actually take down on its own (Wind Drakes and such) so maaaybe it's fine in this particular instance... This being a counter to Chemical Courier seems only fair IMO.
Added Archer subtype
Underdwell updated again. The previously wording said "Untapped creatures may block this creature as if they were untapped." Creatures with Underdwell were never intended to be able to be blocked by untapped creatures, which the wording left out.
What Underdwell wants is to let creatures block while tapped and that only tapped creatures can block creatures with Underdwell in return.
Edited to not go infinite (without a third piece at least) with Astrologer Apostle.
> Whenever ~ becomes the target of a white spell or ability from a white source, you may untap it. If you do, you gain 2 life.
?
Oh, I missed "or ability". Abilities are much easier to put into a deck to break this kind of card e. g. this goes infinite with Lifeforce Distributor.
(((Vocal Supporter))) and Justice's Stance can also trigger this card.
The option of tapping creatures wasn't useful on this card and would have only have worked if you were gaining life at other times.
And I have no idea what I was thinking when I designed the card originally. I maybe wanted a white artifact, or maybe just thought of a white card.
Removed option of tapping creatures.
Increased power by 1
reduced cost from

"tap or untap" is usually the blue thing to do.
It's really weird that the triggered ability exists only on the equipped creature but affects any target creature - though tapping by the time lifelink gains you life is also unusual.
Is this a top-down design or has it a specific mechanical purpose. I really am stumped by the life/tap connection here.
So correct me if I'm wrong, but the sum of cards in this set that trigger this is Recompose... or your opponent using Sunbind...
What you have here is a more restricted heroic - and that required a specialized environment to work out. On first glance I'd give two pieces of advice:
Alternatively you could go all in and redesign the set around this, though I don't see any reason to support that approach.
