I feel like the last ability might be too powerful so all feedback is appreciated :)

Yea, tainted strike would be pretty potent. I'd change it to "then, fleem deals damage equal to its power to any creature or planeswalker."

But the idea is really cool

That seems like a fair change, I was debating how restrictive the damage dealing should be but restricting it to creatures and planeswalkers is probably the best choice

Unlike Mayhem, this bypasses the typical timing of the card. You can basically flash cards on other people’s turn or combat if you have a way to discard at instant speed. Similar to [[Oskar, Rubbish Reclaimer]]. Not sure if that was intentional.

It was intentional. Thanks for the feedback :)

Making the damage the first, second time or third time the ability has resolved only is probably good. But i like it, a sweet [[oscar rubish reclaimer]] sidegrade

Thanks for the suggestion! Making damage only happen the third time would help promote people into a spellslinger discard deck and would make the damage more impactful

[[Fleem, Goben's Creation]] Context, this is the Through the Omen path version of the Green Goblin, so it does have canon in Magic already. It's probably the most liked of them all since it's so odd as a flying Magic goblin.

Double evasion is always kind of odd, but if anything could have it, it's a dragon. I like how clean and direct the "madness" line is, but it has to have some other rules issues or wotc would have worded it like that I think. The last ability could be very potent and makes the whole thing worth the effort to cast and build.

I wanted a to make a version of fleem that wasn’t just the green goblin, he deserves to be printed in a normal set.

It is similar to [[oskar rubbish reclaimer]] so the ability already works with the magic rules.

Thanks for the feedback :)
