Probably too fiddly, but trying to create another green-mana-heavy green mythic.

So if I pay 1, I get a creature between 1 and 6? If I pay 6, I get a guaranteed 6-drop. And if I pay 7 I get to stack my library? Not sure about that last bit :P

OK, just accept that many of these haven't been templated :) I agree that can't work and needs a wording change, although the whole ability is probably too complicated.

The main ability of "Guarantee a big creature" is grea,t the ppotential "Stack my deck" is an awesome addition to tempt sneaky players into playing with huge creatures.

I'd be scared of people getting this into play by alternate means though.

"Stack my deck" is funny, but shouldn't be the ability on a green mythic, I'm going to reword it :)

I don't think it's more powerful than recent mythics that randomly hose your opponent in complicated ways, or put infinite numbers of eldrazi into play, or whatever, if only because it doesn't have haste.
