    I've decided on my 25 Points Milestone: I'll take a Ghostly Sphere and an Hourglass of Time.

    Can I get another mystery box with two challenges?

    @jpastor
    Another box please. 
  • TheKeefManTheKeefMan
    @kaoz42 I think it would be better and more balanced if it was "Snail or Resplendence gets +1/+0 for each white mana in your mana pool." but that's just me. great card tho!
  • kaoz42kaoz42
    Thanks! I thought about it but decided against it.

       Card feedback!

      Arr-lan ho!
      Ahoy, matey! I'd peg this card's design at a solid 80 out of 100 doubloons.
      Positives:
      This here card brings a whole new twist to payin' with your life, makin it a breeze to balance your health for all sorts of expenses on the high seas.
      Bein' able to sacrifice a bit of your life to keep a critter breathin' when it's starin' death in the eye adds a layer of strategy. It'll have yer brain workin overtime in a brawl or when chartin' yer course through the game.
      Room for Improvement:
      The mana cost of {1}{r}{w} for a 0/2 sea dog with these fancy moves seems fair and square. But I'll admit, the abilities might need a bit of brainpower to wrap yer head around, and ya might need to keep a keen eye on 'em as the tide of battle rolls on. Flexibility's grand, but it can also tangle the riggin' if it's too much to reckon with.
      Markin' it as a "Rare" card suits it well, seein' as its tricks be quite unique. But truth be told, the tricks themselves might not be packin' enough punch to warrant such a rankin' in the heat of competition.
      All in all, has a curious and versatile bag of tricks, though it might make ya put on yer thinkin' cap to juggle yer life and creature costs. A wee bit o' simplification or a dash more dazzle to the moves could cast a wider net of appeal and action. Still, the way it's set sail now offers a smart and tactical voyage for those who fancy playin with life and bringin critters back from Davy Jones' locker. Arrr! ?‍☠️

      Split Me Mind
      I'd reckon this card's design be a solid 90 pieces of eight out of a hundred.

      Upsides:
      - This here card brings a one-of-a-kind and crafty trick to the table, straddlin' the line betwixt an instant and a sorcery. This bit of cleverness adds layers to yer strategy and a sprinkle of unpredictability, makin' it a tantalizin' card to wield and build yer deck around.
      - Bein' able to pull off any "cast an instant or sorcery" shenanigans twice when ye play Split Mind piles on the booty. It turns the tides in yer favor and fills yer treasure chest with value, especially if yer deck's got a taste for the same kind of mischief.
      Room for Polishin:
      - Truth be told, this design's a gleamin gem in the vast sea of cards but considerin a wee tweak to the mana cost might be wise. See, {u}{r} might give some sailors a bit of a squint when tryin to cast it in a two-color deck with a hankerin for specific colors.
      All said and done, "Split Mind" be a trailblazin card design, offerin' strategy as deep as the ocean and gameplay as thrillin as a swashbucklin adventure. If ye just cast yer eye to the horizon and make that tiny tweak to the cost, ye'll find yerself on a journey filled with spell-flingin and the chance to create some truly legendary tales of magic and mischief. Aye ?‍☠️

      Death be but a Shadow
      Arrr, me matey! I'd reckon this card's design be a hearty 90 doubloons out of a hundred.
      The Good:
      - This card be holdin a tale of darkness and might, a specter that grows more fearsome with every breath it takes.
      - A crafty mix of Flying and Indestructible be makin' Death's Shadow a tough nut to crack, a true scourge in both a brawl and a defense.
      - The mechanics, oh the mechanics! Gatherin' shadow counters from fallen comrades, and the promise of claimin victory by dealin' damage to a soul with enough of those counters – it be a crescendo of anticipation leadin to a climactic showdown.
      Room for Plunderin':
      - there be some rough waters ahead. The cost to set sail with this treasure be {3}{w}{w}{w}, a heavy load for most pockets. Easin' that burden a touch could let more pirates join the fray.
      - And beware the siren call of victory! With a mere 20 shadow counters, Death's Shadow be claimin' the whole game like a storm outta nowhere. Tweakin' the number of counters needed might steady the ship and keep things fair.
      To sum it all up, "Death's Shadow" be a rivetin and formidable card, with its own tale to tell and a mechanic that's as enthrallin as a ghost story told 'round a campfire. Give her a lighter coin purse to cast and adjust the tally for victory, and ye'll have yerself a treasure worth huntin for, matey! ?‍☠️
