Dreamscape templating issues and suggestions as of 2.50

Multiple cards

  • Cards with dreamwalk should receive their own frame distinct from multitype enchantments.
  • Twisted land cycle:
    • Missing the comma after “battlefield”.
    • Missing period at the end of the last ability.
  • Planeswalkers should be updated with the legendary supertype. Affects Evis, Executor of Light; Ral Zarek, Dream Artist; and Yemma, Planar Huntress.
  • The artist credit on some cards starts with a space. Affects Aether Predator, Creative Revelation, Cultist Dagger, Devouring Husk, Dreameater Engine, Dreamheart Seal, Emissary of Light, Fetid Awakening, Fires of the Mori, Forest, Gardener of Wisdom, Jorallen Visionary, Life's Grandeur, Memetic Casting, Nightfire Aspirant, Primal Visionary, Sleep, Spontaneous Mori, Unimaginable Force, Unrecognized Horizons, and Withering Dreamstrider.
  • Artist name should be Mike Capprotti on Altor Fanatic and Doused Fate.
  • For consistency with other sets, the artist credit on Aisha, Child Dreamer; Dreamfire Dragon; and Tideflow Denizen should be “Sandara Tang”.
  • Dominaria update:
    • Change the card name in additional costs to “this spell” on Aisha's Dramatics, Plague with Distress, and Whispering Bashe.
    • Remove mentions of the mana pool from Abundant Growth, Apparition of Savagery, Dream Frontier, Dream Portal, Dreamheart Mox, Slumbering Altar, Slumbering Garden, Slumbering Prairie, Slumbering Spires, Slumbering Vault, Sommeil Sage, Sparkweaver Kirin, Sunbloom Elf, Twilight Depths, Twisted Expanse, Twisted Peaks, Twisted Ruins, Twisted Tundra, and Twisted Valley.
    • Update damage effects for the removal of the planeswalker redirection rule:
      • Change “target player” to “target player or planeswalker” on Charred Visionary, Nightfire Aspirant, and Sting of the Past (continuing with “target creature that player or that planeswalker's controller controls”).
      • Change “target creature or player” to “any target” on Inspired Researcher; Ral Zarek, Dream Artist; Raving Spree; Shredded Fate (continuing with “That player or that permanent's controller”); and Somni's Mandate.
      • Change “any number of target creatures and/or players” to “any number of targets” on Earthflare.
    • Remove gendered pronouns from Cognitive Violation; Dementia Shrieker; Dreameater Engine; Ikelious's Mandate; Jorallen Visionary; Reev, Equinox Prophet; Shredded Fate; and Troubled Dreams.
    • All cards are missing the flavor bar and legendary flourish. To fix this, the template should be changed to M15 Mainframe. The flavor bar on the following cards will also have to be adjusted:
      • u on Aether Predator, Altorite Blade, Aven Harrier, Composition Tender, Daumas Dualminds, Dawn Crusader, Dread Amalgamation, Dream Frontier, Emissary of Light, Equinox Preacher, Ghoulish Nightwalker, Inspired Researcher, Jorallen Hypnotist, Lumbering Ancient, Maddening Revelation, Noctus Guardian, Pestermite, Primal Visionary, Reev's Devotee, Serpent of Aisha, Shambling Ghoul, Sommeil Delver, Somnosaurus Force, Sunwood Eleon, Torpor Visitant, and Viridescent Kirin.
      • 3 on Dreams Unbound and Enter the Dreamscape.
      • 2 on Wild Flourishing.
      • d on Ikelious, Nightmare King.
  • Artist name on Sparkweaver Kirin and Viridescent Kirin should be “sakimichan”.

Single card

  • Blurred Horizons: For consistency with similar fetchlands like Evolving Wilds, this should have the colorless land frame instead of the gold one.
  • Deepmind Mori: Artist credit should be changed to Donato Giancola for consistency with other cards.
  • Dementia Shrieker: Artist credit should be changed to Matthew Starbuck for consistency with Gloom Tender and Voracious Wendigo.
  • Dreamblessed Scout: Should say “for spells”.
  • Eternity: Should say “exile another target creature card from your graveyard”.
  • Evis, Executor of Light:
    • [-6] ability does not work as written, since the effect of an activated ability only works upon resolution. If the intention is to avoid fizzling if Evis dies to the cost, there are a few options:
      • Change the first ability to “When Evis, Executioner of Light enters the battlefield, you may exile target creature until she has left the battlefield and none of her abilities are on the stack.”
      • Change the [-6] to “Choose a creature card that was exiled with Evis as you activated […]”.
      • Move the choice into the cost, as in “[-6], choose a creature card exiled with Evis: Create […]”. This would require support within Mainframe though, since the colon after the loyalty cost is currently hardcoded.
    • [-6] ability should be updated to use the create keyword.
  • Ikelious, Nightmare King: Should say “this creature's converted mana cost”.
  • Ire Figment: Should say “attacks each combat if able”.
  • Jemmara, Reality Steward: With the Amonkhet Oracle update, this should say “would be put”.
  • Memetic Casting: First ability should say “that's a copy of that spell”.
  • Ral Zarek, Dream Artist: +1 ability should read “on top of your library.”
  • Raving Spree: Should say “If a player was dealt damage this way, they sacrifice an artifact” since it only hits a single player.
  • Repressor Mage: Should say “target creature an opponent controls with power 2 or less”.
  • Scrounging Amalgam:
    • Should say “if a non-Ooze creature died this turn”.
    • Missing apostrophe in “that's”.
  • Serene Light: Artist name Julie Dillon should be capitalized for consistency with other cards.
  • Twisted Representation: Missing a comma before “except”.
  • Walker of Regrowth: Should say “less than or equal to”.
  • Wild Flourishing: Should say “an X/X”.
