Cool Card Design of the Day

A slight change of rules text changes a moderately useful build-around effect into a powerful removal spell.




I'm pleased with how splashy this effect is for a card with a single line of rules text.

  1. This is eminently printable. There should be a betting market where we wager in how many years cards like these will be in real Magic.

  2. Definitely see it in a Return to Kaladesh set.

  3. As a big fan of Cloudshift, I like this too. I think it's cool lenticular design with a great "Aha!" moment.

    I also like how getting rid of the words "you control" is apparently worth 5 mana.

    1. Ooh, I just thought of an un card. "Ignore all targetting restrictions" :)

    Exile target creature, then return it to the battlefield under its owner's control. If this spell was kicked, return that creature to the battlefield under your control instead.
