I'm finally going to remember to note that I'm on Bluesky for anyone who cares.

(If for no other reason than to draw attention to Moth Grace)

Objection! Imp!

This card has no real world equivalent that I'm aware of, but I think one reason I thought of it was a deck I made with a particular meta goal in mind.

You see, the entirely different game known as Magic has a digital version called Magic: The Gathering Arena, and in that, you can have daily challenges. Play X cards of Y color, stuff like that.

One such challenge is "destroy X of your opponent's creatures", but what if a bunch of opponents have very few creatures, or don't even use creatures? WHAT THEN?

So I made a deck that includes creatures with the "downside" that they also give your opponents weak creatures. Bam. Creatures to destroy regardless of the opponent.

WHICH suggests one important thing about Hope's deck: For whatever reason, Hope wants her opponent to have a relentless monster attacking her.
