Storm only applies to instants and sorceries. Also, the ability you wrote is a replacement effect. It doesn't even use the stack.

storm

Nope.

The copies don't have haste so you don't instantly win the game, but it's another win condition for Modern storm decks... if the CMC is two or less.

there's already a Storm creature in Storm Entity, and it's not busted.

how about its a 1/1 with cmc 5 and you put a copy in equal to the storm count?

I put it down wrong it should be 1 toughtness and when enters, and wizards can change things

And Wiley there's a reason i didn't put down the word haste

Wizards can change some things, but storm is NOT an ability word. It's a keyword that has a defined function. You can't make up a function and stick the storm keyword on it.

Storm decks doesn't really need any new win condition. And as epoch said, storm is not an ability. Also, why not just play Monastery Swiftspear in storm? It seems better.

Storm is a triggered ability, if it wasn't then Stifle wouldn't counter it, and swift spear doesn't get permanent stacks on etb this isn't meant a better option for storm but a balanced option

Sounds like it's just a verbiage issue. It would be something more like "Spell Collector Weird enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters where X is the number of spells cast this turn"

In this case, you may want to give it flash?

I've been getting into these cards, so I have an idea.

Weird Summonings

1UR

Storm

Put a 1/1 Weird Elemental creature token with haste onto the battlefield.

What do you think?

Storm Entity and Empty the Warrens already exist.

So basically [Storm Entity] without haste? Might as well use [Storm entity] then, it'd obviously be better
