If I target a Scarab with Momentum, can I get both?

By "target a creature", he means target it with Index | Catalog, not a random spell.

I think it would be a cool idea to get either a copy of the creature or a spell it has on it, or both.

Just to have a  cost parallelal universe but with the fact that you have to play the card from your hand and so pay the quanta necessarly for it? nahhh
But i've liked the spell gaining fact.
The "both" option seemed the most nice to me.

Well, you can also copy permanents, so it has more application. However, b/c of its low quanta cost, I'm worried about this being OP since it can get 12 copies of a card, especially in rainbows. (ex. SoV)

Maybe the card text should read "sacrifice (something) to add a copy of target card to your hand"? It kind of balances out the new card you get and a different card.

Necro.

Huh, is this the first "direct draw" card to make it past the Crucible?

[Drake_XIV]

It seems so.

Not a very elements-y name, is it? I wanna yawn just looking at it. This is a FANTASY game! How about Forbidden Magic/Ancient Magic or something? Because the first one is really cruel x)
Even something like Tapping Pergament/Power Scroll would be more mysterious.

As for balance, I love it but the upped one is pretty darn abusable as decks can get a lot of fast quanta when upped. I personally love the drawback mechanism and would like to see it in both versions.
