a far more satisfying way to get what I wanted.
list sensible types
ugh, yeah. I keep forgetting there are more types than that... Edited to mention types.
But ye're not thinking black enough. This is a "Bargain with me" card.
I choose creature. Do I want you to avoid discarding creatures, because I'm holding onto Murder? Or do I want to tempt you into discarding creatures, and hurting me, because I'm not?
But, yeah, I guess you need to explicitly list the sensible card types.
Never mind Tribal and Planeswalker - I'm choosing Scheme and Plane. They're still card types, even if cards of that type can't be in your hand.
Reminds me of Gerrard's Verdict, which also shows the difference that gold makes in whether a 2-mana 2-card-discard spell needs a benefit or a drawback.
Would you ever choose anything except "Tribal" and "Planeswalker"?
Adding 1 to the cost just gives you Mind Rot, with no need for random mostly-irrelevant riders.
Ooooh... nice idea for semi-targeted discard.
But forcing a discard of two cards on turn 2 is game winning; I'll willing pay 4 life for that. (And do it again on turn 3 to be certain)
Cost it up by one and I've no quibble. Very nice idea.
Doop doop doop do doppety do, doopety do do doop.. Wait, that's James Pond. Darnit.
I think I'd like to avoid doing it at all - a whole load of token copies of different things is very very fiddly.
' Whenever a creature enters the battlefield, if it is the first creature that ETB that turn, put a token onto the battlefield that is a copy of that creature, except it has "When this permanent dies, destroy all creatures with the same name as this permanent." '
Disenchant should work. "Enchanted creature is monstrous". Remove the enchantment and the status goes away. In fact, you could get multiple triggers off of Boomerang, which is kind of cute.
Monstrous already invites those issues - but yeah, no need to make them worse. (Except, well, then people would expect disenchant to work, which it won't right now. Simple enough to make it do so though.)
Wants to be an enchant creature. That way, there's not memory issues.
I'd be surprised myself, unless there are "monstrous matter" cards.
I love it. I may even think something like this will come out of the cards we havent seen yet from the theros block.
On the rules part, this card doesn't put counters, so it's meant as either an anti-monstrous (preventing the counters and triggering monstrous at inconvenient times) or to get your monstrous bonuses (Polis Crusher, Colossus of Akros, Stormbreath Dragon, maybe Fleecemane Lion) without overextending. It's a sorcery because no ones wants to figure out what happens if you cast it as an instant against a monstrosity activation!
Wasn't sure whether to make this monocolor, though.
