Just don't target, since you can only blink your guys anyway. It'll let the card do its intended function (blink as many guys as many times as you want, provided you can pay for it) and the only real problem is that you can blink your shroud guys. Is that really a big deal?
"Choose a creature you control. Exile it, then return it to the battlefield under your control. Repeat this process X more times."
EDIT: It also doesn't trigger heroic. Oh no!
FWIW, I searched gatherer for any cards which "target" and "repeat" the "process" and Crooked Scales and Tyrant of Discord etc suggest that 'repeat the process' doesn't include choosing new targets. So this would work as I assumed -- blink one creature X+1 times.
You could say "blink X creatures" instead, or find some wording that does let you re-target, but I don't think it's necessary: we already have "blink everything" cards, it's interesting to have a "blink one thing lots" card.
The problem is, targets need to be chosen at the time the spell is put on the stack. At that point I certainly can't target the new object that this Mulldrifter will become once I've blunk it once. So it's really not possible within the rules to "repeat this process X times" when part of the process happens at casting time and part of the process on resolution.
But I think it does work fine to say "Choose target creature you control. Exile that creature, then return it to the battlefield. Repeat this process X times." The spell can track the object as long as it's the spell itself that's moving it. That's how come normal blink cards like Otherworldly Journey can work at all.
We should do that.
I'm not saying we can't still have her. The flavor of the Aven legend never really struck a cord with me. Maybe we should reconsider her in place of our aven legend, all we'd really have to do is remove flying and change the name back to whatever it was before.
Now I'm sad, I was looking forward to putting sexy tinker princess in the next set.
Tapping reminds me of Thundermare. Thundermare is awesome. Therefore, I like leaving this as it is.
Should we return to our previous discussion on this card since it's an Uncommmon now?
Well the base card is red, so you can't cast this in the first place without red.
It's a valid idea to switch the two abilities around, I'm just not sure if it's all that better.
Keep it as is.
Honestly, I seem to remember our aven legend being eldaveth. That's why their abilities are similar, they were suppose to be the trademark of the character and her aupporters. I think she was suppose to be our H.G. Wells character (Warehouse 13 H.G. Wells not the literary writer)
Eldaveth got change to our aven legend when flying got added to the card.

Wouldn't it make more sense to reverse the abilities? Most colors can tap, or cause not to block, but only red deals damage consistantly. I would think that this card would make more sense if it dealt two damage regardless, then tapped those creatures if you didn't pay red. Makes more flavor sense, too.
I agree small differences are important, I'm just in the camp that believes red should get tapping.
