    not sure about the balancing though :D
  • @MaverickGV, I figured that out pretty quickly. @Corwinnn, can you please rename the mechanic 'Conduit'? Would that work?

    @Corwinnn
    Lol! I think you just copied the mechanics' texts from example cards.

  • @everyone
    Card is called "spell" only during it is on the stack. If a card says "Exile this spell", that means you exile it while the spell is on the stack. So you need to cast it before you exile it.

    Card isn't called "card" when it is on the stack or battlefield. So if a card says "Exile this card: ..", you exile it from your hand.


    Also @everyone, you can edit mechanics or their names as long as the concepts aren't changed. For example, current Metamorphose says "..mana cost N.." but it might be more interesting if it says "..mana cost N or less.."
  • I tried to make something more simple, hope you like it

  • Yes @Tomigon that is the correct way of wording it.
  • LoL @Tomigon - I did copy them from the example cards! I fixed all three! Including "Conduit" for @Gelectrode
