@Rithaniel: Thanks if you're talking about my The Joker design, I agree, it's probably way too easy to enable but I do wonder how much this kind of win con should cost. I should've just made him deal damage instead of outright winning the game though.

HM: YoTed - A mox with summon sickness? Very interesting, but I don't think it's enough to balance it.
HM: TessaMTG - That upkeep triggers on each of of the tokens, too.

Finally! I was sitting on these ideas for too long.

Yeah, statistics. With about 10 players with roughly equivalent skills, it can take a little under 2 weeks before a particular challenge "wins." It doesn't help that I post late in the day, so tiebreakers go to others. I'm glad you were excited for the challenge.
