if this card can target permanents, how would it work?
for example, if you target a SoV, will it affect just one or the whole stack? or up to 3 like earthquake?
It could target nonstacked and nonstackable permanents.
So no pillars and no shards.
Delaying pillars would be too much.
i dont know... if it could only target pillars that werent stacked, it wouldnt be too much OP
No, it wouldn't be OP, but this would add an exception in the behavior of the card, making it unnecessarily complicated.
Try to think, as a player, that you used TimeBolt on a pillar in a previous game.
Then, in the next game, you try again, but this time the pillar is stacked, so the card doesn't work anymore.
It seems confusing...
I think that simpler is better.
