That's cool idea, but this can be cheated OTB...

you should add a clause "When ~ etbs if it wasn't cast from your hand, sacrifice it."

nice catch

Honestly; if you can cheat this into play - good for you?

You think that this isn't worth putting the clause on? I'm interested to hear why...

I think this card has a pretty powerful ability on it...

Cheating it in is not that hard to do either... just use any one of the many cards or strategies.

The ability to keep it from the battlefield also doesn't really work. You cannot replace an event that has already happened and triggered abilities only go on the stack after the event that triggers them actually occurs.

That's just a templating concern. "If ~ would etb, etc"

Sure - but cheating things into play is a thing you want to sometimes do. Cheating "Win the game" into play is not a thing you want to allow. Cheating something interesting and potentially swingy; but not completely imposisbly dominating? Sure, why not.

Uh... that's assuming this is meant to be just a one-shot Clone, Copy Artifact? Though honestly, if someone wants to get a Vesuvan Doppleganger in play, I don't really have an issue with that either.

I thought this could (at instant speed for free) become any permanent, with an unlimited number of uses. I thought that's how this was currently written.

just realized it doesn't say "but has this ability" so its 7 mana to copy a permanent...

Yeah i thought this was a lot more pwrful, ill have to ask wurms if he meant it to be a 1 shot. I think the clause is unnecessary if it is.

I only argued it because I thought it was reusable, i guess not. So cheating it would be fine if you can, I suppose.

I cannot see a reason to even have an anti-reanimation (or w/e) clause on an expensive delayable version of Clever Impersonator either.

Just for the combo with a certain land that Vampire Hexmage does cheaper?

BIG OOPS

I should have put 'but keeps this ability' on that

The effect is meant to be repeatable.

I agree with Vitenka, cheating things into play is part of the fun. Edit incoming...
