Re: Costumes and Personas
Subtypes with mechanical weight in their own right are near-entirely abandoned by WotC (I think Sagas are the only exception), having erratad that away for Walls and Legends in the past and moving to universally-present keywords with Equipment. So it needs to be keyworded in some way, perhaps trigg...

Re: Costumes and Personas
How would you handle the board slowly filling with unworn costumes? Imagine if ever creature you played left behind a corpse when it died. The corpse doesn't do anything on it's own but other cards can care about it in various ways. This makes creatures better because they have use after they die. I...

I can't imagine this mechanic being safe at any reasonable cost. After the first spell with Ripplicate they are all mostly reasonable cards however after the third they are all beyond broken. Because it functions off of self mill I think this would have to be costed such that not until your third or...
