Daily Card Redesign #103: Narcomoeba

Daily Card Redesign is a daily Magic: The Gathering design exercise where I randomly choose a card for the scenario of it being killed late during its own set's development. I design a replacement card that uses the same art, is the same color, is the same rarity, and has a name that, alphabetically, keeps it within the same collector number for the set.

Redesign:

I had a lot of fun with this one. I love doing weird conditions and triggers. I pondered different things like the condition "Whenever you take an extra turn" and etc.

So, this card is supposed to be replacing whatever you're searching for in your library to be this card instead. Let's say you Rampant Growth. Instead, you search for a 1/1 flyer and put it onto the battlefield tapped. I tried to make sure that this wouldn't be too powerful at ANY turn that you search for this guy. So, if you crack a fetchland on turn 1 and grab Nebbyfish instead, no big deal. Zephyr Sprite and Suntail Hawk exist, after all.

So, why would you want to play this? Well, that's for Johnny to figure out. =)

Since the jellyfish looks like it is floating/flying, I let it keep flying.

And, lastly - "nebby" means "nosy, impertinent." So, this thing just meddles in your searching activity and gets in the way (if you let it, of course). Nebbyfish! So cute.
