I think they'll make it a 2/3 for 1GU with the same abilities. It's a bit underpowered as it is now, though it does give you +1 Card Advantage... so did Yavimaia Elder-- and he even gave +2!

Two questions:
1) Is this real?
2) Is that the set expansion symbol that it will come out in?
3) Somebody actually made it all the way throught the invitationals and created...THAT!?!?!
sorry, three instead of two, but the sheer stupidity of this card is ripping apart the fabric of reality...
really, compare avalanche riders, shadowmage infiltrator, voidmage, and that merfolk raider thing to this pile...
what the hell was he thinking?
"I'm gonna compete as hard as I can to get the one card I've always dreamed of to be made."
yeah, that that's your dream card, buddy?
'Uh, yeah...I suck, right?"
sure do, go back to Pro Tour Land, where all the unimaginative net deck playing, crap creating losers hang out.
urgh

I kinda agree with SeFRo here.
I mean, its a fine card, but its not that unique or overly powerful....it certainly doesent follow the trend of invitational cards. I dont know if thats cool or not.
I was looking over all the cards the players submitted, and I thought "Mage Hunter" was the best.

Maybe he saw my MTGO 5CG deck and wanted to help me out, and how ironic it is I'm bashing poor Mr. Thoren.
I took a second look at the card and thought it *might* have a place in my deck. After all, I use Jungle Barrier to defend myself and to draw a card so that I may further fix my mana or get a domain card.
This sort of does that, with an added bonus of fetching a land.
Sadly, 2/2 for four total mana means it
*will* be using that card draw ability when it dies. Also sad is how it has to die to get you a card draw.
End result...I still say what the heck was he thinking?
"There's something missing from the game and I have the one shot to make it happen, to finally enrich what I feel is a hole in Magic. I KNOW!!! I'll make a wannabe 5CG card! Yup!"

It's missing the - "I thought this up, but now looking at it, it really sucks" flavor text.

Anyone remember the first Meddling Mage? No?
Here it is:
1U
Creature-mouth
When I come into play, name a card.
Sac me: counter named card.
0/1
to use a new smily: :yawn:
It was upgraded. And all the too-good creatures were downgraded. thus, this will probably be changed.

Um...Why is there blue in this card? What ability does it have that is inherently blue? Drawing a card? Green does that. Green also fetches land. I think the final version could end up as a green card rather than a gold card.
But I definitely agree. It needs to be better than it is to see play. Perhaps GG and everything else the same? Or 2G for a 2/3?

Ah, but everyone is ignoring what may be the potential beauty of this card: You draw a card when it leaves play, not when it hits the graveyard. So some interesting blue bounce tricks might be useful with it. I agree that it'd be much more intriquing if it cost one or two less...but imagine it at three mana with Aluren and Cavern Harpy...

I think Thoren wants this card to be Blue and Yellow (gold), because that are the swedish national colors
IMO wotc will tack another ability on it and/or reduce the cost somewhat, cause they certainly want thi card to be more playable.

This card would be good enough for an invitational card by trimming the U off...2G for this is just fine.
