Aura spells that attach to creatures and provide continuous buffs on just them. I maintain that instants are a good and necessary card type but am open to the idea of needing to set them on the field beforehand so there's more ways to interact with them. For some spells you could also require an upfront mana payment if it's necessary for a balance reason (see above). A seperate mana deck. If you want to do multicolor mana or mana cards with seperate effects like this typically they will be unusable the turn they come in or have a restricton (pay life to come in and be usable immediately). 20 life. 40 card deck. 6 card hand. Mulligan draws allow you to put back your original hand, draw 6 more then choose one card to put back so you keep 5.
