Rhystic Rhys, the card everyone hates

Custom Cards forum

1UU Legendary creature- Human Wizard. whenever an opponent activates an ability that isn't a mana ability or casts a spell, that player may pay 1. if they don't, you may draw a card. Whenever an opponent casts a spell or activates an ability that targets Rhystic Rhys, you may draw a card. 1/4

Seems weak. Dies to nearly every removal spell ever. Costs five. Has no protection. At least Rhystic Study is an enchantment, so it has some built in protection. I would reduce the cost to and make it a 2/3.

Plus the draw isn't a may, so an opponent's Wandering Fumarole decks you.

true, I should change it.

zephramtripp - I fail to see how Wandering Fumarole decks with Rhys. Fumarole can only switch its own P/T, hence it isn't going to be targeting Rhys.

Either way, Kala - I agree that the card isn't powerful enough. I think it should be 1UU for a 2/3 with the same effects, or maybe make it a 1/4 so it can survive a Bolt and lower the target effect to one card from two...

TheNinjaPhoenix, at the time the comment was made, there was only the first triggered ability and it didn't say "may" in the draw part.

ItchiUchiha117 - thanks for clarifying. The comment did seem a little out of context.

@TheNinjaPhoenix I've adjusted it.
