@Krathos: Yes, the creature nomming is a passive. Sorry if I wasn't clear about that. However, notable passives can be listed on the card, such as Pest's quanta drain. And yes, it gets summoning sickness, meaning that it HAS to eat at least one creature.
Huh, true. Can't it have Passive Summoning Sickness? I think if not, it can be UP.
Keep in mind that if you drop a VRap and a RoL turn 1, you just dealt 8 damage for 3 :time and can use the Time Towers you presumably used to play the VRap to satiate it and keep dishing out 7 a turn. I wouldn't call that bad, especially for a less damaging element.

Well, Deja Vu's were an option, but summoning sickness makes this a bit slow. However, it may be a too high price for a creature. You'll have to either play one creature every turn, which sometimes will be killed before attacking, or to pay 7/6  :time by turn 2 (and sacrifice one creature before that), to deal 7 damage per turn... I still prefer Ghost of the Past (and it also has a cool passive).

    Please fix the TEXT section of your table so that it matches the card image:
      Every turn, Raptor kills your weakest creature. should be Eats your weakest creature every turn.Every turn, Velociraptor kills your weakest creature. should be Eats your weakest creature every turn.

Wait, but it grows with every creature eaten?
Kill is more appropiate, since it doesn't grow (I guess), and eat is already understood as gaining +1|+1 after killing a lower hp creature. I think we should leave it that way...

It's important that the information on the table matches the information on the card exactly. Mainly to avoid confusion.

The old text couldn't fit on the card, so I had to use eat. It doesn't grow.

perhaps 'consumes your weakest creature every turn.' ?

I changed "eats" to "kills," to stop the Devour confusion.

This is an interest idea... I can see it working well with Scarab/Pharaoh decks...  :))
