Anyone had fun abusing this with crypt doctors or Altars of Ix yet?

You only can use it once a turn and the card comes back with no tokens, so the combo with altar of ix is minor. I hadn't considered the crypt doctor possibility though.

For example Crypt Doc with a Putrid Zombie should work well. Every round you get to move 3 with the putrid and then detonate it for nice damage, while healing some creature for 4. This won't even cost any flux!

That would be a fun combo. I don't think it is broken though, since it requires 3 cards, 1 of which is 3 domain, and can be stopped by killing the doctor, removing the enchant, or standing on the zombie.

Yes, I tried it. Against you, unfortunately. :)
Putrid Zombie combo works well with Crypt Doctors (tested against AI). If you can't disenchant Nightmares, you are dead very soon.

But there are some issues with this card.

Its text says> a corpse YOU CONTROL.
But it allows to be used on all revealed corpses. There are some questions about
it> who is the controller of a corpse:
a) corpse from sacrificed creature under possession
b) corpse from destroyed creature under charm
c) corpse of a reanimated corpse

The other question is> is the intended mechanism that when you awake a
corpse with Nightmares and sacrifice it before the EOT, it leaves its
corpse to be used again?

If you posses or charm a creature, then kill it, it will come back as yours if ragnarok or such is played

In other words, you control the corpse in answer to a, b and c

Controller of corpse is player that controlled creature before it died.

Still bugged. It allows you to use any corpse, not just one you control.

Fun combo: Bring something back with it, use it for the turn, then give it to your opponent with mind control in exchange for a new creature.

Another thought: The no tokens thing is to prevent the combo with nether plasma, but what about cards where removing the tokens is a good thing. For example, Slumbering Titan. Is there a cleaner way to handle this?

The combo with ix is weak???. Having 2 extra flux income is week????. Hello any one notive that flux is the thing that we use to cast cards. And that wining 5 flux around instead of 3 flux is like hello a lot of extra flux.

Am i missing something there?

We decided to change card a bit:

Nightmares
Enchant World
{I,dim.png}: Target Corpse you control comes back to life undimmed without tokens. That creature or its corpse is removed from the game at the end of the round.
