razorborne has just posted the article "Proteiform Brain" in NGA Constructed Daily Card.

Comment on it here!

Yes.

I think Proteiform Brain's probably too clever for it's own good. It really needs to require blue mana to work. Otherwise it's a pie violation. Heck, adding to the cost arguably makes the card better. That or restrict it from hitting 0 cmc cards and the cost can stay the same.

It's not more of a pie violation than Mental Misstep, and it's incapable of hitting cmc 0 cards unless you have cost reduction.

[slaps forehead] Yep, this can't hit zero cmc cards. I still think you shouldn't be able to counter a spell with just colourless mana. Especially not for just 2.
It's a smaller break than Mental Misstep, but I feel that Misstep was a mistake.

I think "too clever" is putting too positive a spin on it. It's a bad idea.

Here we go again...

Jokes aside, I'm not a fan of the card either, but it plays decently and has interesting flavor.

man I have lost track of these. I'll try to get one up for tonight.

sorry people! every day is more days than I thought it was.

I like how you imply that Mental Misstep isn't a color pie violation.
