Hello and good luck Megiddo - I like this more after taking a second to think about it - it's somewhat similar to Propaganda in that early on, it forces you to choose how you develop your board/provide pressure, but whose effectiveness dwindles late game when players need mana sinks. That being said...

wonderful - I like this! Flexible, and both modes are decidedly in-flavor and things I'd be excited to do at instant speed.
