Not bad I like it. I have wanted to see another sleep mechanic.

Yeah, another earth time combo, I find myself wanting to add a twist to the tried and true Graboid Rush and this card could be just the thing. This card encourages more control and stalling than the blitzing of graboids that some players have come to hate. Only thing I would change is the card's name, maybe something like the Desert of Drowsiness, or the Sands of Slumber, this card deserves an epic name.

 8) Are you saying Mr. Sandman isn't an epic name?

I like the uniqueness of this card, and I don't think that it is too overpowered, considering the cost of the ability and the forced duo. I know that the graboid rush decks of  :earth :time are quite common, so I like this new idea for a stall mechanic. Nice job!

Mr. Sandman, Bring me a dream. Make him the sweetest that I've ever seen.

Wow, I thought Arctic squids had some delaying power. My concern for this is Plate Armor | Heavy Armor. Killing a 14 HP creature to regain control of your army is a pretty heavy task, and requires at least 2 cards, even in a fire deck. Does reverse time count as destroying?

I would like use this on my voodoo doll just for the trolling power. "Nice weapon, if you could use it."

But the problem is destroying it. 'Specially because basilisk blood and heavy armor are in the same element. Or maybe that's just me.

Yes, Reverse Time would count as destroying Sandman.

I don't think basilisk blood would be that bad, concerning it disallows Sandman from delaying anyone else.

Change "destroyed" to "removed from the field", because destroy doesn't fit with RT.
