    Do y'all think a Nefarious Lich ability for damage that creature receives could work for a UB keyword, or would that be too easy to abuse?

    Another question: Is it weird that WU's only one in common is flying, since every color gets that to some extent? Like should they have another combat relevant keyword too?

    ...Part of me thinks Flash would work really well for that lol

    I also lowkey love Unearth as the UR keyword even though it doesn't make sense beyond flashback for creatures.

    I'm not sold on flash as a UB keyword. I get the flavor, but it feels like on black it'll only ever go on dudes with cloaks holding knives, and I don't really like the idea of a "tribe"-only mechanic. Then again, I guess you could make the same argument about lifelink and vampires in black.

    I know there's already a huge thread on coming up with a UB keyword (longtime lurker), but did anyone ever suggest a delve version of Dralnu, Lich Lord? Something like (If damage would be dealt to this creature, you may exile that many cards from your graveyard instead.)?

    For a UR keyword, what about a combat version of the Merfolk Trickster ability? Like (Creatures blocking or blocked by this creature lose all abilities until end of combat/turn.)?

    I guess one problem with that is you'd either have to make it self referential (...lose all abilities except [name of this keyword]) or just state in the rules that if two creatures with that ability were in combat with each other, both of them would lose all their abilities.
