As a general rule, if you have to model your rules text off of Dance of the Dead's oracle text, you're doing something wrong.




Clearly problematic. Let's try this instead:

  1. You could also base it on [[[Quicksilver Gargantuan]]]'s template, though I'm not sure if that's better.

    I like the idea, though I don't know if it's broken to search out and deploy creatures whose most dangerous aspect is their abilities, or not.

    Also, I'm sure he'll grow up to be at least 2/2.

  3. Congratulations, Jay! That's a really neat card idea. Oh, and I guess making a human is pretty special too. =-}

  5. I like the Quicksilver Gargantuan idea. The card makes sense as a creature, anyway:

    When you cast CARDNAME, search your library for a creature card and exile it, then shuffle your library. CARDNAME enters the battlefield as a copy of the exiled card, except that it's still 1/1 and gains "At the beginning of your upkeep, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature."

    Also, congratulations!

  6. Congratulations! I'm sure once he grows up a little bit he'll figure out a cleaner template for the card.

    At the beginning of your upkeep, put an age counter on CARDNAME.
    Remove eighteen age counters from CARDNAME and exile it: Put a permanent card from your hand onto the battlefield.
    "He can grow up to be anything."
