Rysorian Badger is very close to being useful, and I know he's got a decent star rating (probably, because he's a badger using a skull for a drum...) But what a bummer it is when you actually want to use his ability.

So, I made the ability good, and potentially great with a surprise Giant Growth. As an aside, this guy really wants to be white. If it wasn't for the artwork, I would have moved it there already. Maybe I still will, depending on the needs of the set.

He probably wants a creature type.

Also, this wording might be confusing to some players: what happens if you don't have enough cards in your graveyard? And for that matter, the original targeted the cards, where this version doesn't. That's a slightly undesirable change.

How about "exile up to that many target cards from that player's graveyard"? "up to that many" is a rather clunky phrase, but it already appears on Scapeshift and Cephalid Constable.

Ug. I'm not a fan of 'up to that many targets' in the graveyard, but you're right. It should target if it can. Changes to be made.
