    Awesome card. But I'd make a few small changes as shown below.
    -----
    Play with the top card of your library revealed.

    Whenever you cast a spell for the first time each turn, if the top card of your library is a noncreature nonland card, you may cast that card as though it had flash this turn.

    @modnation675 Thank you.

    @ASubtleGhost
    No problem, I just felt it was an awesome card. :)

    If it's as awesome as you say, you can fave it again :)

    Edit: The spacing ahead of the name was a copypaste error. It's fixed now.

    @ASubtleGhost
    Just did. But I'd recommend ending the lines as shown below since you have extra space.

    Just an optional aesthetic choice, for future reference! :)

    The name also seems to have spacing ahead of it for some reason.
  • ASubtleGhostASubtleGhost
    I'll stick with the name couatl when it comes to feathered flying serpents.

    We prefer the other spelling I'll admit. XD

    1--Love Boa
    2--Windfury is ok, but probably too cheap.Look at Lightning Shrieker

    Using the new Ixalan mechanic.
  • brcienbrcien
    XD a pirate dino card or two is fine. Just don't post too many. Someone else will eventually make a thread for that. I actually think explore is suppppper wordy

    @brcien
    Pretty wordy, but straightforward. They'll be able to drop the reminder text in the future if they need to.

    What's this discussion anywho?
  • brcienbrcien
    This was before a bunch of Ixalan was leaked. Aztec/Native American type stuff
  • Faiths_GuideFaiths_Guide
    So you'll change the name I expect?
  • brcienbrcien
    Yeah-I'll do that like nowish

    No idea what worth this has. But it looks like a mexican Rock Lobster.

  • brcienbrcien
    ROCK LOBSTER!!! And I like that a bunch. Repeatable conditional toolbox tutor, and made really strong use of thrive. 4.97/5 for me (XD it's not a crab?)
  • ASubtleGhostASubtleGhost
    I just realised it doesn't state what you do with the card you searched for. It's now correctly worded, but no space for the flavor text :(

    @sanjaya666 was it intentional to have it trigger on even your opponent's lands entering?
  • sanjaya666sanjaya666
    edited June 2017
    @ManaChrome Yeah? It would end at that opponent's turn anyway.

    Since Green seems like a very dominate color on the plane (Do jungles lean toward green as much as forests?) here is a character. Mirpevian is the king of the Axcal clan, a group of only strong survive cat folk. Because of his intense training, he naturally ignited while fighting one of the giants that plague Alacaw. Occasionally he will planeswalk to train or clear his head. He much prefers protecting his tribe. When the bad prophecies swirling around Alacaw come to fruition, he will be there to fight alongside the human planeswalking adventurer that someone should design.

    Feel free to jack the art and make a better version of him. He is basically a quintessential jungle cool guy. Also, design a 2 colored, not green planeswalker that might be an interesting secondary planeswalker for Alacaw. Good ideas will be favorited.

    @sanjaya666 I'm not worried about that +2/+2 and haste thing, I'm talking about exploring every time a land enters play. You would have +1/+1 counters for days. If not, you'd still have a hand full of lands, or cards in your graveyard for later. Still love the fact that you made a "ramp" card without using any of the Simic colors. And that graveyard being filled with stuff is actually a pretty cool Commander deck idea... And I guess it would be interesting in commander... "Do I play a land, and trigger my opponent's Grace Flyyn? Or don't play a land, and choke on lands later?"

    Lol, I think writing this made me like this card even better... maybe increased cost I guess?

    @ManaChrome Damn, I forgot about that +1/+1 thing. Heh, gonna remade it then. That was also seemed to be broken anyway.

    And here's another pirate commander instead.

    @brcien
    I'm gonna be honest. That card is awfully designed.
  • brcienbrcien
    @modnation675 I knooooowwwwww. My life is a wreck especially yesterday and I don't like planeswalkers so it was bound to happen. The +2 was meant to play for both Thrive and Ravenous the -X was how I would picture making a planeswalker fight a creature without becoming one, and the ult was idek. That's why I invited for people to make their own better versions

    @brcien
    No problem, I was just noticing some wild ideas among other sets recently and was concerned.
