We finally broke Ornithopter
simple
six-card
Hmm…
In all seriousness, though, this is almost as funny as the old Mishra’s Coupon one
簡単たよ!
This wouldn’t work. Tournament rules may allow multi-language decks, but if a player can’t read the language printed, they also allow that player to call a judge over and ask for the oracle text with no penalty.
Phoebe’s ability also doesn’t indicate that the target of the text box changes. So it’s still the parrot that dies, and phoebe leaving the battlefield still does nothing.Edit: see below
That isn’t true. A self referencing ability automatically changes to the new creature as per 201.4b.
Boo, stupid rules /s
Thanks for the clarification
I learned that one early in my magic history thanks to Experiment Kraji

Also, tournament play does not allow the un-set used here
Man, I have a Donate deck too, but I use Lich and disenchant for the win condition. Less cards, but also less fun lol.
Since the card isn’t named Carnivorous Death-Parrot or Nine-Lives, the opponent can simply ignore those effects, no? Phoebe only steals the text box.
Edit:
If an ability of an object refers to that object by name, and an object with a different name gains that ability, each instance of the first name in the gained ability that refers to the first object by name should be treated as the second name.
Nevermind, carry on
What does the japanese text say?
It has been my honor to improve on Thran’s original design. Perhaps history will remember me in some small part for my work
slow player here 🤷
