Fun in a storm deck.

Doesn't work perfectly in a storm deck as written, because it says "Whenever a spell you cast resolves". I think that could be fixed, though, by changing it to 'you control'. Normally, I'd say something about "...should probably say 'When you cast a spell...", but I assume Link knows that what he is doing is normal-Magic-verboten.

I know it's now what's normally done, but I was trying to make it seem like these effects were being added to the spell. I thought about literally writing it that way, but that seemed more confusing. I suppose that, realistically, I should just have it be a cast trigger.

>Until end of turn, spells you cast gain "[effect]".

Now that would be fun in a storm deck, since the original grants it to all of its offspring.

Yes, but that's weird on spells that aren't instants or sorceries.

Powered up {b}, changed to cast trigger from resolution trigger.

I liked the resolution trigger because it made this stoppable by countermagic... but it's not like every color can pull that trick anyway.
