Sorcery | C
Target opponent discards a card. If a noncreature card is discarded this way, create a 1/1 black Rat creature token.
Go anywhere. Even the filthiest, most uninhabitable place you can imagine. And you'll find a rat.

Cato wrote:
Call Bluff :b:
Sorcery
Target player names a card. Then, you choose one:
-That player reveals their hand and discards all cards with the chosen name.
-That player reveals their hand, and you chose a nonland card from it with a different name. That player discards that card.

Up to two target creatures each gain

Sorcery (R)

Bounds deals 3 damage to each creature

without flying.

Fuse (You may cast one or both halves of this card from your hand.)

BelangiaJo and ty each go up a point, remaining tied with each other, and join the tie with Rush_Clasic and Echo_Robin at 18.

Cato goes up to 6 points, only two away from getting inducted!

Look at the top three cards of your library. You may put one of them into your hand, or return Open Options into your hand. Shuffle your library.

Legendary Creature - Demon (M)
Flying
If X is less than four, Sataras enters the battlefield with debt counters on it equal to the difference.

Trample
Whenever a player casts a spell that could target Green-Eyed Monster but doesn't, put a +1/+1 counter on Green-Eyed Monster.

So uh... I actually used to have two alt accounts that have won CotW in the past.

Though you'll have to just take my word for it since I've long since forgotten the passwords to both accounts, and I believe they both used throwaway email addresses so I can't even do password recovery.

I'll take your word for it! Do you remember their names? They should be on the leaderboard. I can consolidate their wins into yours.
