What if it had an ETB effect, and reverse-flickered when a counter is removed?

Edit: or it put a token of itself into play each time a counter is removed? The power level would have to be below the curve though

Just got in on this thread but maybe something like this to add scroll to permanents.

Wall of willows. {1}{G}{G}

Creature- wall.

0/5

When wall of willows enters the battlefield put a 0/1 sapling token into play with scroll {G}, remove a scroll counter, draw a card.

Mother of willows. {1}{G}{G}

Scroll 4 {G} put a 0/1 sapling into play.

You do realize what scroll does right?

I'm not saying that in a bad way, some people get fuzzy on it when they first get into the thread.

Almosteric

Yea I understand what it does, you cast the spell, exile it with a # of scroll counters then play the scroll counters anytime you could cast the spell and copy that spell.
I had to go back and re read/write the card idea. I think the second version has a better grasp of the mechanic and you get your permanent.

Birdbrain

Maybe creatures putting tokens of themselves into play could be the progress mech for the next set? Just a suggestion. Progress might need an aggro mechanic in the next set sense it has a control mech in this one. Just like Ecobound is an aggro mechanic, and divergence is a control mechanic

Almosteric

It's all looking very very cool, great job on all of these creations!  Edit : all of you!
I updated the card I made, hope you dig it.

Birdbrain

This is a card for the second set to go along with divergence

{R}{R}{3}

Pyro clastic flow

Sorcery

For every land target player has untapped, deal 2 damage to each creature they control an 1 damage to them. Creatures destroyed this way are exiled.

Kaleo42

They can tap in response. It would have to be worded as "Deal 1 damage for each untapped land target player controls and each mana in that players mana pool.

Almosteric

The way it was worded would work well as an instant. Maybe with a slightly less CMC. That way the opponent can make a choice to tap his/her lands in response.

Birdbrain

What of it said "when this card is cast" that way it checks when its cast, and isn't deminished from them tapping lands?

Almosteric

I think that would do it yup!

Also I've been thinking of more support cards for the biobound mech. What do you think of this guy.

Tree Temple Healer. {1}{G}{W}

Creature-Elf Shaman

{T} Tree Temple Healer becomes all creature types until end of turn.

1/2

Making everything a changeling in this set would make this a rare, a very expensive rare.  It is broken.  Maybe just make that card all creature types would make it a less broken but still pretty good common.

Birdbrain

I actually designed Ecobound with changelings in mind. It wouldn't be broken. It would still require 3 creatures. And all creature types wouldn't enhance it in any way

Edit: in conclusion. The old version of that card is absolutely, positively NOT broken, and can be used as it was

And the new version is a pile of crap, an wont support Ecobound at all. Because the tree already has a creature type, an it counts only one creature type per creature
