To implement that and curb the endless loops the following cards need to have their cost adjusted to 4: natural connection costal discovery stratus walk negate scatter to the winds imprisoned in the moon (this card needs its cost to be increased to at least 6 and up to 9) transgress the mind whispers of emrakul imprisoned in the moon - what were they thinking when they made this cost 3? This is by far the most obsurd card cost translation in the game. Black has a few good removal spells at 5 (which is color appropriate), there are a few conditional ones at 6, most other colored removal is 8 or 9, and colorless at 12...so what made the dev team think that 3 was good for a blue spell?! It MUST be increased to 8 or 9, considering turn to frog is 9 and this is arguably better as it is, and some PWs can get up to 8 in a single gem match.
