IDEA:
OdinVanguard
NOTES:
"Today will be enlightening even Illuminating"

"Take time to seek enlightenment today."

Division rounds down. E.g. A discarded miracle (cost 15) would provide +8|+8; ( (15+2)/2 -> 8.5 -> 8 )

If the discarded card has an "on discard" trigger, this mechanic will trigger it (e.g. the GoTP rewind combo will be functional).

Possible uses.
-Offensive mill with a dangerous double edge.
--Good for GoTP mare and eternity combos
-Repeatable creature buff that synergies well with high cost decks

Target gains +N/2|+N/2.
N = discarded card's cost + 2.

Confusilicious! Otherwise I'm very interested by this idea. I like the potential as CC with Reverse Time (at a price, of course).

Basically take the cost of the card discarded with Ankh, add two, then split it evenly between ATK and HP.

Such that a Light Dragon (12 :light) grants +7|+7? Seems pretty powerful (can basically turn your cards into Blessings before you've drawn them).

What about odd costs? Rounded down?
Like reading? Here's a story inspired by Elements, City of Alchemy. :)

Yes, odd costs round down.

It is indeed very potent in decks that are heavy on expensive creatures... of course you would then have a longer set up time since you have to get a creature into play to begin with before you can start milling the others for stat bonus.

Odd costs will round down as usual.

I was originally going to go with square root scaling instead of halving, but that seemed a little too weak to me... maybe I'm undervaluing buffing ... or overvaluing discard though.
