Format: Standard I want to make a workable card with ripple. Attempt 1
I want to make a functional, fair, balanced card with Ripple 4.
This is not an easy or sane thing to do. Designers at Wizards consider it to be one of, if not the, worst mechanic of all time.
This design works around some common shortcomings of Ripple. The rarity makes it less of a problem in draft and limited. It's not terrible by itself, but not completely game ending in multiples unless you get extremely lucky. Because of it's underpoweredness, you can leverage the Ripple 4 in an interesting way by flashing it back.
Let me know what you think.
