It doesn't feel like either a Sliver or a Spellshaper?

Slivers have "Slivers have" abilities, and Spellshapers tap to cast their spells usually.

This, in effect, gives an ability to Slivers in your hand instead of those in play. I don't think it's an entirely unreasonable evolution from the typical Sliver design.

I'll remove the Spellshaper type. I put it there mostly because I like spellshapers too much.

[indent]Verminate
Sorcery
Put a 1/1 black Rat creature token into play.
Whenever a rat is put into your graveyard from play, you may return Verminate from your graveyard to your hand.[/indent]
It's a pun. Ha.

Originally the recursion ability triggered on that specific Rat token leaving play, but that was awkward and rife with memory issues. Then I changed it to trigger on any Rat leaving play as a fun rat tribal card. Finally I expanded it to its current form, figuring that it was still weaker than Bitterblossom . Then I changed it back to only rats when it was decided that it was better that way. :X

Bitterblossom is not a very good card to base balance off of. :P

The card's okay. A bit boring. Don't see much flavor wrote:

if it triggered off rats, I'd build that deck with Marrow Gnawer.

120.6. Some effects replace card draws.

You can already build that deck. :\

Are you suggesting that I change it from any creature to just rats? I can see how that'd be more app wrote:

I'm starting to lean that way myself, now that I think about it more. I'll go 'head and change it.

Oh, I still despise Tribal. But I think it makes sense on this card.
Edit - oh. That's not what you were saying. Oh well.

Vanquish

Screw the real Vanquish . That card sucks.
