I suppose I might as well take a stab at a card with Matt's new ability.

Double-up-Tapz0r
1W
Instant
Tap target creature.
Doubleup -- Tap a creature you control

It could be a cool trick in a limited enviroment, for cleaning up creature-stalls.

I like this but the base effect should cost more - 2W sounds about right. This is always going to be played EOT, so I think it should cost 2W or even 3W so that in limited it'll be broadcast and good players can see it coming and maybe do something about it.

I started out at 2W, but then figured it might be ok at 1W. I'll change it back.

Well, yeah.  Y'know, buncha guys go to sleep, one after another?  I suppose the whole plague/epidemic thing is sorta out of flavor for white, but hey, there's a blue ninja kicking around these days...

I would respond, if only you understood I'm Mr. Simplicity. Your names simply do not qualify. Do keep trying though!

Oh- I think I get it now.  "Trapper's Guild" too permanentish-sounding?  "Domino Trap?"

Maybe something about using blowguns to shoot darts tipped with sleeping powder at the enemy? That woudl tie in the cascade cost too - you get your team of like five guys to go out and snipe at the enemy - each man takes out his target.

I would try to make it sound like a strategic maneuver; Misled By Wind sounds right.

I originally pictured Hail of Bolas as a swarm of Nicol Bolases or something. But I realized the intent was much more likely a hail of these bolas, which is still an amusing image but at least makes sense.

I agree that, especially being white, it should have a strategic name. Some sort of feint, perhaps, as the flavor for creature-tapping in white is usually decoys and diversions. Grand Feint, or somesuch.

Name, anyone? Otherwise, I'm sticking with Hail of Bolas, even though It has 0 meaning for me :p

You could leave off the name/flavor and we can add all that once we decide which cascades we want to use in our set and what the flavor of that set is.
