0/0

a new round appears! make a permanent card that can blink itself. there's lots of different timings that can fall under the blink umbrella, so I'm just gonna say that as long as it exiles itself from the battlefield and then returns to the battlefield at some later point in the game, it's fine.

gonna start grading on Friday probably. go!

Godo, the Conqueror

Legendry Creature ─ Human Scout (U)
Trample
When Godo, the Conqueror enters, if it didn't enter from exile, exile it until a land card enters under an opponents control.
5/5
Few things drive exploration more than conquest.

Does a one time blink of itself as a drawback mechanic count?

raz, does phasing work for this criteria? Not literally of course, but would it fit the spirit enough to be graded?

I'm gonna say no, 'cause I think the design space for phasing is really different from the design space for blinking, and I'd like to leave space for a phasing round somewhere down the line if I get the chance.
