That's a good option.
I don...Welcome Ryuujin!<br /><br />That's a good option.<br /><br />I don't know how much the feel bad of not getting to use your hydras for a full extra round weighs compared to your opponent's feel bad.<br />Would want to playtest.<br /><br />In between these two options is having them ETB tapped.Jay Treathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428861685923241850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-23025263273237802162018-09-18T16:11:13.705-04:002018-09-18T16:11:13.705-04:00Hi guys,
first time post of an irregular visitor ...Hi guys,<br /><br />first time post of an irregular visitor but fellow card designer (aspiring):<br /><br />@Jay: Really elegant Hydra! I like it very much. Regarding your thoughts for an appropriate limit, which doesn't interfere too much with the elgance of the simple rules text, how about the following minor tweak:<br /><br />Hell's Hydra - {3}{B}{G}<br />Creature - Hydra Horror - (Mythic rare)<br />5/3<br />Whenever CARDNAME dies, create two token copies of it at the beginning of your next upkeep.<br /><br />I think this provides "shields down" moments in two ways limiting the cards power:<br /><br />Due to summoning sickness, the copies are not an immediate threat (or at least need some haste enabling back-up) and can be answered again if the opponenent manages to cast consecutive removal spells (which is difficult and hence appropriate against a mythic rare I presume).<br />The second thing to notice is, that removal does not immediately get invalidated be the two replacments, hence the opponent may still have a chance to find windows for attacks.<br /><br />I think this tweek keeps the design as elegant and simple as you made it to be and doesn't sacrifice the splashyness of getting a growing hydra horrors army which I think still wins against the "feel bad moment" of not getting them immediately. :)Ryuujinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01588162547675045628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5479847193762153273.post-34023987096121237842018-08-25T13:15:54.971-04:002018-08-25T13:15:54.971-04:00"This creature can't be sacrificed"

This line of text is appealing enough for Jenny and Tammy that I think you can sacrifice some of the Spike efficiency.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15941977219304581236noreply@blogger.com
