You found the perfect art
Didn’t think about that convoking has haste. Oh…You are probably right then. Onde did think about it and made it legendary.
It’s a awful topdeck just like most other aggro 1 drops. I would think it’s interesting to include in a cube. At least until players start complaining about it.

Thanks! I made that using MidJourney. I can understand why artists are apprehensive of AI art, but I will say that it’s still impossible to shape the art to your exact wishes. I’ve been trying to create a beach-front flooded birch forest for the GUB version of this, but MidJourney doesn’t want to understand me. As long as people need very specific visuals, artists have a job!

That's why they tap for mana on their own
Pure filter lands are quite finicky to use.By the way, I made art for the other four I need for my cube for anyone who wants to take a look.

Trying to think of a solid dual to replace the Pathways. One of my design goals is to favor aggressive decks with my land designs. Any of these speak to you?
Obviously you're welcome to suggest your own design if you think of something better

Yeah,I actually really like all three
But ransom has to be
is a lot, but Frogkin Kidnapper dictates what ransom costs I could change the wording to something like “an opponent may ransom a card from their hand” with the reminder text (Exile the ransomed card. Its owner may pay the ransom cost at any time too …), but that feels a bit clunky?

The "land" color?
Ooooh, you mean the color for the bar behind the text! Yeah, good catch!
I'd honestly prefer it if it didn't explicitly tutor for a card with Madness.

So a hybrid Entomb that also works with madness, basically? That seems really strong for one mana.
There needs to be a reveal clause in there, by the way, to make sure the opponent can check that the right card is being discarded.
“Search your library for a card, reveal it, put it into your hand, discard it, then shuffle.”
I think this is the correct wording.

Yeah it seems like a fair cost for a mostly singleton cube.
Obviously it would be great in Legacy and other formats because they can include 4 copies and because they only include it if they have a perfect deck for it. In cube you might end up running it even with only a few good targets.

Yeah, I would go with this wording to make it more versatile and to let players feel like they discover the sinergy with madness and not that they are being told what to do.
I think Communist also made more sense for the flavoring of some of these initial cards since about half were early 20th century revolutionaries and the other half were druid communes. The type was being used to represent different things than the word "comrade" implies.
For future reference, the Comrade subtype may make sense for this style of card.

One of the things I always try and remember is "That's a good question, let me find out" is an acceptable thing to say, even in professional enviornments
True. Let it be Entomb++
I wasn't exactly aiming for correct wording lol.

Especially in professional environments.
You might not have been aiming for correct wording, but you might as well use it if you stumble upon it
You don't need to add a reveal clause, the rules can handle tracking a card going into your hand through a single effect, and you'd need to actively try to misrepresent the game-state (which is cheating) for it to cause any problems. (At least in this case, not so much with Sylvan Library.)
I like the scry variant of the dual land the most.
I agree that it should probably not stop you from attacking planeswalkers, but I wanted it to have slightly more in-game utility than just being a health buffer.

If the moat stops you from attacking your opponent, then you attack the moat instead.
