Nice card. Its abilities tell a story, with a nice natural progression. I'm a bit scared of seeing you cast this when you happen to have 1 or 2 life than me, and immediately gain infinite Mind Twist power.

It does cost a {b}{b} and a creature, and being on more life to activate, and is a cost 6 legendary - at that point in the game, what're the chances you've got any cards in hand anyway?

Powerful, but not utterly horribly "I win and you can't stop me" evil. I like it. Plus it's a creature. I can potentially kill it to get rid of the mindtwistness.

V: It doesn't cost the {b}{b} to transform - as written, the transform trigger is a separate ability, that'll trigger the moment it hits the board if the life totals are favourable.

But as you say, that's not necessarily overly powerful on a 6-cost mythic legend.

Oooh, right - I was reading it that it only checked the life totals after they discard. (For any reason, but it's got an obvious one built in) Still not utterly horrible, but nasty enough. I still doubt {x} will often be more than {1} though.
