The original card was a Memory Lapse++; I added the "or permanent"in as I posted it.  Guess I shoulda me that its own card.  Also, I should up the cost, considering it's on par with Plow Under.

I thought of the card after looking at Remand and realizing it would work the same if it didnt say "counter target spell" on it. 

I hould be 6-0 against wonkey and Upinthe's decks.  I can always destroy the Mox or man-land in either deck which shuts both of them down.

how about now?

Actually, Uba mask had more or less the effect i was looking for.   you can close this thread.

The only logic-bender i can come up with is Volrath's  Shapeshifter, which would end up subsuming the enchantment's abilities while a creature  was on top of your graveyard. And Humility will work the same way it does under Opalenscence.  Every other enchatment works fine as a cerature.

Current Wording:
Opal Awakening
WW
Enchantment

Imprint - When Opal Awakening comes into play, remove a creature card in your hand from the game face-up.

Global enchantments you control that share a converted mana cost with the imprinted card are copies of that card and gain its abilities.  They're still enchantments

Changes:
-Wording changed to match Volrath's Shapeshifter.
-Wording changed again to maintain space-time continuum

Keep the cost the same and make the sacrifice part of the cost.

Opal Awakening

Enchantment

Imprint - When Opal Awakening comes into play, remove a creature card in your hand from the game face-up.

Whenever you play a global enchantment that shares a converted mana cost with the imprinted card, it becomes a copy of that card and retains its abilities.  It's still an enchantment.

What about artifact lands?

Assembly Line?

The first version should be 2UU, in order to keep it line with other gimmicky  counters.

The second version would have to have the skip as an additional cost, and remover the "untap an island" ability.

Wouldn't work as written, since the spell is still countered.  Gotta have the damage dealt by Reignition itself, or make it a replacement effect:

"Whenever a spell that would deal damage to a creature or player is countered, Reignition deals half that spell's damage to that creature or player, rounded down."

"If a spell that would deal damage to a creature or player would be countered, instead it isn't. Prevent half the damage that would be dealt by that spell, rounded up."

(interesting note: the first wording is cumulative; with three out, you'd end up dealing 150% of the original spell's damage)


As for the ability itself, it looks nifty on paper, as well as having some nice flavor, but it's just too weak. You'd be better off running Scald.

When Mirror-Soul Zubera is put into a graveyard from play, target Legenday permanent becomes an X/X Spirit creature until end of turn. X is equal to the number of Zubera put into a graveyard from play this turn.

Sounds like a feature to me.  Turning Darksteel Reactor into a viable win condition isn't necessarily a bad thing, plus it also has a extra option to separate it from Ice cauldron.  Heck, you only have to put 13 counters on it; you can Dismantle it after your next upkeep.

Also, from looking at the wording, I'd change it to an Imprint template and change the last ability to an upkeep trigger.

There is Teferi's Puzzle Box in T2 and Extended, so it's not a totally dead card.

For centuries, the Mountain Kingdoms have sprinkled their treaties with scented oils after signing them.  Though it began as a form of watermarking, it's more common use is for kindling.

What about the current changes?

Yeah, but and as it's currently worded, that only happens after you let them double thier hand size and draw another card.  At that point, it's just asking to get Natualized (or worse yet bounced, so you can have the luxury of letting them do it again).  

Mind you, all of this happens before you get to draw anything off it yourself, but after you've discarded your own hand.

The opponent could just send it back during their upkeep, so it's not too bad.  But after thinking about the card more, I don't like how it becomes pretty much useless if everyone choses to pass it.  Would changing the third ability to "Discard a card at random:  Target opponent gains control of Jinxed Tarot.  You may play this ability only when you could play a sorcery." be too much?

Skip your draw step.

Sacrifice a Goblin: Remove the top card of your library from the game, then flip a coin.  If you win, put that card into your hand.

If you don't control a Goblin, sacrifice Meeting of the Minds.

Tap two untapped Goblins you control: Remove the top card of your library from the game, then flip a coin.  If you win, put that card into your hand.  Play this ability only any time you could play a sorcery.

The great Goblin thinkers are fond of their summits, but only small ones. Tall summits give them nosebleeds.

Is the card too combolicious?  Too weak?  Out of flavor?[/b]

Jinxed Tarot

Play with your hand revealed.

Whenever you draw a card that shares a color with another card in your hand, discard it and lose one life.

3, T, discard your hand: Target opponent gains control of Jinxed Tarot.

I'm rather fond of the Jinxed mechanic, and it'd be nice to see some decent ones printed.
