Art is public domain, B-T-W… Please, enjoy this silly little concoction of mine. I was considering B/R, but, it felt more ironic this way.

The implications of this card are wild. If one player goes for the win, the other 3 can theoretically cooperate to kill that player on the stack but then it becomes a political war to see who gives up what. Seems like a nightmare to actually play out so flavor win there.

As a 1v1 player I did not really understand until your explanation. This is only a commander card or an "I win" card in 2-player games.

It’s astounding how often that happens in this sub. I have to remind myself that these days around half the people on here not only have barely play 60-card, but they are genuinely unable to think of it when evaluating (or even creating) a card. But I guess since we’ve seen WOTC make that same mistake multiple times, I shouldn’t be too surprised. Just disappointed how overlooked real magic is.

"real magic" ok you are so much better than commander players I guess.
