Two different versions.





Both made by Mammothtank.

Both "Indiscrimination" and "The Goggles" sound like they'd "work" in an Un- set. (Think Unglued and Unhinged)

EDIT: Also, as far as I remember, there weren't any flippable cards that could flip back at will. (Re; "Toshi" card from the first post.) Though this may have changed, since I stopped playing after the release of the Ravnica block.

It was done that way on purpose to help prevent memorisation issues. It easier to remember if you have a card that's gone off or not than one that goes back and forth.

Indiscrimination is a blatant rip off of a unglued card.

So, you are right! It'd be great in an unglued set! XD

Edit: It's worth mentioning: Chaos Confetti is based off of a card Chaos Orb, which legend has it, someone played in a tournament the exact way Chaos Confetti is "supposed" to. Chaos orb says to toss it into the air, and whatever it lands on, destroy. The dude took Chaos Orb, ripped it up, and threw it at everything his opponent had. XD

Yeah, that's where I nicked the ripping it up part from. Chaos Orb, that is. Didn't know about the other one. The thing is very old and super rare, but I had the experience of seeing one in mint condition once. It was from, what, first, second edition? It was at a con being sold for in excess of $100, but I don't recall the price. Could be WAY in excess at this point.

Really, I just wanted an excuse to put that lightning storm on a card.

In all honesty, my first experience with the flippers was in the Kamigawa block where they changed into heroes.
And once you go "hero", you can't change back into obscurity, so to speak. [EDIT: Which was actually the whole explanation, if I remember correctly.]

I have no idea if there were actual flippers back in Ye Olden Days, so... Kinda reversed of what Blues has. He's only got until 6th, I ain't got a single card from before 6th. (and after Ravnica)

[DarkDrgon]

they were only in Kamigawa, it was one of the blocks gimmicks.

Alright!
So, what I said is still true, except for exactly the wrong reason (unless Blues had Kamigawa in mind, which he didn't.)
