Updated to Parshendi
Okay, back after a break of a couple of months. I have now read Oathbringer, so there will be more material for cards. Also, the book has confirmed my suspicion that "Listener" is not the race name I want to be using. "Parshendi" is better, if still imperfect. So cards will be updated to reflect that.
Five mana is already better than Final Judgment. Exiling makes a real difference to destroying so the upcost to Day of Judgment is earned.
If anything the cards (this and Front Lines) feel too similar - partly because the tokens are so similar. Two differently typed white 1/1 vanilla creature tokens in the same set? Meh.
A 4 cmc sorcery making each of these kinds of token? More meh.
Beggars' Feast does have a cool idea regarding life gain though. Note that converted mana cost is red-flagged at common and the interaction with tokens certainly is one of the reasons, so I'd add reminder text that at least these tokens have converted mana cost 0.
This is an interesting card too. Interesting design space since tokens have 0 mana cost.
I do consider rarities. The idea is to have 3 or 4 of each common, 2 of each uncommon, and 1 of each rare/mythic in the cube.
Good points. This will be moved to uncommon. And there are definitely plans to have a good amount of enablers.
So this is a Cube, but do you still consider rarities? This seems not like common material.
I mean even if it has support at common, this is a pay-off card.
Regarding the name... I think both Frantic Search and Frantic Research would also kinda make better names for red rumaging anyways - now that the ability exists.
At least it seems to belong on an instant rather sorcery if it still wants to be blue. I think a new name would really be best... Weigh Options?
That makes this a strictly better Divination btw if anyone cares about that.
Just pointing out that Catalog existed, and it was an Instant.
Oh, wait... you 'may' discard a card? Well that's weird.
The name as well as the effect was so close to Frantic Search that I had to double check the card.
Maybe modify the name?
That would be a completely reasonable assumption, and that's probably how it should be.
So, this planet does not have a lot of flying creatures. At all. At least, not that have been mentioned so far. But there are enough that I can't just remove the keyword. So I've been scrounging for flyers. I'll see about fixing the creative for this.
Flying? With a name like that I would have thought this to be a creature with defender and reach. Ie. Archers of Qarsi
