Affinity for permanents.

When ~ ETB, exile a creature card in your hand. Until EOT, you may cast that card from exile. It has Affinity for permanents (this is not in addition to affinities it already has, but replaces them). At EOT, return that card from exile to your hand.

2/2

At 8 it's mythic rare, and still pushed.

I was thinking maybe 10.

Rarity has nothing to do with power.

I'd say at 10 it comes down on turn five with having nothing but land. 12 is probably a fair price. It has no evasion or protection anyway.

My experience with Pauper would say otherwise, but whatever.

Yeah, 12 seems ok.

Well what I mean is, you can't just up rarity to up power. Or something. I forgot the phrase people use here.

Wait, they printed this? And still didn't see the problem with affinity? Weird.

For starters, if you have five lands, than it's down to seven.  Likely by that point, you also have a creature or two, and maybe an artifact or an enchantment, so it'd be fairly priced at that.  Late in the game, you could probably drop it for almost nothing.

The funny thing is that if the cost goes up high enough it becomes even more of an advantage , but without the usual uncastable drawback .
