This is different to the old dune scorpion. The old one could be fractalled and easily played and with momentums/blessings/chaos seed it could own the targets deck
but with this one it costs 3 time to do it thats more than the old dune scorpions cost so I think its pretty balanced
Thats what I think, but...

CURATOR COMMENT
-Try to fix the 'icons' in the card image if possible (the :time icons seem a little bit off)*
-Could you explain the art source or provide a link of some sort? It sounds valid, but the name might be misspelled somewhere, as I can't find any author information. :(

* = suggestion

I think the idea of placing a creature at the BOTTOM of one's deck could actually be beneficial for the user (you could use this on a Malignant Cell on your side of the field to ensure that it doesn't ruin your set-up); it does have a very fun tactic though of really ruining someone else's creature combo tactics...

Combined with Nightmare, however, this card would be a very strong form of denial... potentially too strong, but we'll see.

I'm a bit confusing about which way may I choose for this card:
should I keep the discard way or should I continue with the "put on the top/bottom" idea? In the second case I think that I could put down the cost.

If I had to choose, I would go with put it on the bottom, but I would keep the cost the same. In the majority of games, putting the card on the bottom is exactly the same as discarding it completely. The only time you'd ever see them again is if you were playing a stall deck. But I like that you have a chance to see the cards again.

Ok. I've edited the card with all the proposed changes. Also I've linked the paint name with a page about the art.

Hope you like it.

I still don't like that the upped one targets, but maybe that's just me.

If it were me, I would make the buff to the upped one a small decrease in cost, either in the ability or in the card cost.

the upped one hurts when you use a combo deck. You have your hand plenty of cards that are waiting for another card to be played. But if you use a rush deck or even a common deck, you almost don't care if I choose or if it's randomly choosed.
It's either a expensive and a weak card and could be useless (if you never have cards in your hand).

Also there's no need to say that when the game cames to it's end, put a card on the bottom of the enemy's deck is useless becose he will draw it again on a few turns. But it can be played to avoid decking out.
It do not seems to me that it's a heavy skill for that price, it's like: play that later.

What it's ability does is force the opponent's hand. So if I was holding a rage potion in my hand to kill a creature when you played it, I no longer have the ability to hold on to it.

The ability to force your opponent's hand is a strong one, so the cost needs to reflect that.

It could just lose the ability to look at the opponent's hand, but keep the choice.  Precognition could then be used as a 2 card combo with it, but it would weaken the ability at the same time.
