Maddening Snare
Artifact {uncommon}
This enters taped and doesn't untap during the untap step.

When a creature attacks you if this is untaped, tap it and attacking player discards a card at random.

Choose target opponent. Starting with them. you and that player each name a card, then that player discards a card at random. Each player who named the discarded card creates a Treasure token and a Clue token. If you are the only player who named the discarded card, return Mindgame to your hand.
What to reveal, what to conceal, and what in what you conceal will you reveal?

voidborn

Show

Hide

For voidborn, especially if it's going on commons, I'd recommend a shorter wording. Something like (At end of combat, if this creature attacked this turn, exile it until your next upkeep. It re-enters with haste.)" Reminder text doesn't have to explicitly spell out the full mechanic, and can use slightly abbreviated wordings. The rules for "exile until..." already clarify that an object reenters under its owners control unless otherwise specified. If theft is a significant mechanic of the set, then explicitly writing out "owner's control" might be worthwhile, but otherwise I'd drop it.

iiw: "when you cast this spell, copy it for each ..."
