Forgot type.. oops.

Changed wording.

I feel the red cards in my cycles are always weak. I didn't want to do the obvious and have this deal damage, and looting was too close to Wind Totem, so I wound up with... this. There's nothing particularly red about this ability, but nothing that says red can't get it either. Either way, this card seems off and needs some work.

Changed from shuffle effect.

No longer cares about card type.

I wonder how powerful this is, especially compared to the others.

I think it's a really interesting take on Sisay's Ring / Ur-Golem's Eye.

Huh, I hadn't even thought of that. Neat.

Why not add a second {r}, if you're worried about it being weak?

I worried about it being too powerful. You think it's too weak?

I misunderstood your concern about its power level. I don't think it's too powerful, since the bonus is only sometimes relevant.
