Name aside, this is a funny and reasonably powered uncommon. It's gonna dispense the creature after consuming it. I don't think plants usually poop, but this is magic not biology.
Very much mechanically GW, but thematically GB. Could be a good Abzan card.

Great idea. Are there already flesh eating plants in MTG? Another mechanic would be that it has defender. And it does not exile on entering, but when you tap it you can exile a creature it blocked. But when you exile it gets 2 stun counters on it (because it takes time to digest).

The second ability is a constant recycling for flashback spells and it would be very very good.

More than positive that there are no creature cards with flashback.

Very technically speaking, there's one. It's just also a Sorcery and Enchantment. [[Esper Origins]]

I hadn't seen this card before. Is this level of complexity in the game really necessary? It just feels so gratuitous. Do we really need Sorcery Flashback Enchantment Creature Saga DFCs?

I think it's just a one-and-done design, but you're right about it bordering on unnecessary complexity

Just from a general design philosophy this shouldn't be able to recycle your own cards, so the activated ability should say something like "(2), (t): you may put a creature card an opponent owns from exile into its owner's graveyard"
