REPRINT Merfolk Looter.

Flavor text to explain why we do have a Rogue rather than a Pirate here.

From a thematic point of view, I want to be able to bring ships to safety as well as crew.

Compare Flicker of Fate.

Now that I do put Treasures into the set, let's keep it fresh with some nontoken Treasures.

The Mechanical Theme of sink appears in various colors.

This card entirely exists, so I can put the words "sunken Treasure" in card text.

2020-10-28 10:32:41: SecretInfiltrator created and commented on the card Curse of the Hounded

The original released booster contained not a single monocolored green card, so I have a lot of wiggle room here.

I figured a mechanical theme of the set could be Curses (cursed Treasure, cursed Pirates etc.) so I try to figure something for common.

This common Curse gets resolved into an effect and then goes away, making it less oppressive than a Curse that sticks around, but also opens opportunity to recur the cards, which will probably be on the draft archetype uncommon.

Dog Fish tokens are a thing now, apparently.

See Bilge Rat.

The challenge for this set is to make even the bad work and matter. And sink is bad.

While sink less open a design than even ingest, I feel like I'm stuck on making Processors to make it matter. On the plus side, I feel like it is alright to let you reclaim your own sunken cards, since there are better checks on how they got exiled. Makes the mechanic more parasitic though.

I have no idea on balance yet. This card seems to do a little much for common, but I can revisit it later, maybe move the wordy cards to uncommon.

Waterworld has the issue that many creature types could end up blue-leaning, so I go for double creature types to give the creature type (in this case Shark) a nudge towards another color.
