Rehauled? You kept the same premise, just made it able to target more things and last 3 turns.

Offensively, this is way too slow and expensive to be worth it.

Defensively, it doesn't solve the problem of situationality, and I don't think it can even be effectively used based on the time and quanta you need.

Pretty wild change! I think I preferred the original, but let's see...

I can see pros and cons to this but on the whole I think it's more powerful. You can't use it on the first turn, but you can not only change your target but also choose two/three. I can see that getting pretty expensive at 2 :aether per use, I'm not sure if it should be cheaper.

Personally I think 'so what' if so far spell damage is an Aether thing. Growth is not limited to :life, nor Infect to :darkness. I don't think you should worry about the coding either: if Zanz really wanted to put this card in the game I'm sure he'd find a way. Nope still perfer the original! =P

With a card like this the 1-turn delay could be pretty upsetting. It could mean the difference between your creature getting burned/frozen by a shield, and it gives the opponent a short window to prepare for a reflective shield (as well as simply deflagration). Also I have generally never been a fan of Aether/Time together. Please show me a nice duo and I'll consider changing my mind. As I see it, they're pants and Anubis does little to make up for it.

Anyway rant done I think I said 1 or 2 useful things anyway! =P
