a fan of domain cards, but I'd rather have Exotic Curse than pay one more for Drag to the Bottom.

The flavor text is definitely one of the better attempts at humor. The equip cost is a bit high I feel.

....because for 4 mana you'd expect some sort of static buff alongside the landfall boost. For just G + auto-equip, "Landfall: +2/+2" is pretty meh, and I'd rather have it built into a creature.

Also, I realize I'm old school, but I despise colored artifacts.

depends if you balance it based on the environment or based on card face alone, I think! pick axe is in a set that has a new version of harrow along with brushfire elemental and that elephant/land who scale in the same way, plus fetchlands even infest casual now, and +4/+4 for G is a steal, cos even if it's conditional, it's conditional on strategies which are already a good idea. based on that I think the re-equip cost is alright, or rather it'd look conspicuously pushed if it cost less

a pick axe that turns the equipped creature to a Steppe Lynx.

looks like they were being careful with the power level of this card. Making it need green to be cast, and upping the equip cost to 3 mana.

Today we call that Goblin Oriflamme.

Forget v2. underrated cards which trigger a LOT of things. Lore Broker is also really nice. you can use these effects for evil but they don't feel like too much in multiplayer and I have always loved Flux as a means of getting a slow game into its next stage. Would love something like:

Document Muddler uu
Creature - Illusion Rogue
(Prowess?)
Whenever Document Muddler attacks, defending player draws a card, then discards a card. If that player discards an instant or sorcery card this way, Document Muddler can't be blocked this combat.
2/1

Like rage comic memes, this belongs to a different era.

I forgot that was a one-word name that was already used. I actually kind of like this use of it as well, in terms of flavor matching the name.

timing works with Seasinger and I'm sure that's most of the point of the card :)) I still play with the ancient stuff in a tiny pre-masques league and I definitely have a deck like this. instant cantrip version is called Shimmering Mirage!
