But Time Spiral doesn’t target, so it can’t be.
Maybe post the relevant changes to this matchup so spectators dont have to flip between threads?
What EricF meant by target is to say that you cant add/remove runes from another players cards. It isnt adding the target symbol, just a convenient wording choice.
So Time Spirals new proposed FULL wording:
Add or remove a time rune from a card (or forecasted card) that you own with at least 1 time rune on it.

Changes affecting this game series:
Green Starter:
Ironbark Treant ability becomes “-1 ATK/+2 
while patrolling” (rather than -2 ATK)
Rich Earth costs 2 (instead of 3)
Balance:
Midori Midband becomes “Your units with no printed abilities get +2/+1”
Circle of Life becomes “Sacrifice a Tech 0 or Tech I unit. If you do, put a unit one tech level higher with cost 4 or less into play from your Codex” (instead of a green unit with cost 5 or less)
Gemscout Owl is 1/1 (instead of 0/1. It still can’t attack)
Chameleon costs 0 (instead of 2)
Demonology:
Vandy midband loses “Resist 1”
Dark Pact becomes “Deal 2 damage to your Demonology Hero, and 2 damage to your base. Draw 2 cards” (cannot target opponent’s base, and also damages your Hero)
Metamorphosis no longer grants Invisibility (other benefits remain the same)
Banefire Golem costs 5 (instead of 6)
Purple Starter:
Time Spiral costs 0, and can only affect your own cards “Add or remove a time rune from a card (or forecasted card) that you own with at least 1 time rune on it.”
Tinkerer becomes: 2 cost, 0/1. “Cannot be attacked. 
add or remove a time rune from your unit, hero, or forecasted card”

Present:
Sentry’s ability becomes “Prevent the first point of damage that would be dealt to your patrollers each turn (active player’s choice if more than one patroller is dealt damage at the same time)”
Hyperion reduced to 4/4 (instead of 4/5)

Future:

Trying some KotC madness…
"
Should it be “that you own” or “that you control”?

Control usually applies to “in-play” cards, and forecasted isnt in play, so hard to say. I figure own works, but the other time rune cards use a different wording, maybe change spiral to match the others. The intent seems clear for this game, though.

70% chances to draw a KotC, and 90% to find a 0-costed card. It should work right ?

Midbandori slays everything, but KotC ensures big trades or spells, while it costed me nough. I'm not sure I'll be able to get some value of Plasmo on next turn though.

I did get some value out of Plasmo, in the end. I was expecting more blockers, but well, with no tech buildings, I've not much to fear but circles of life. The new reaver looks crazy good.
GG! WP! Did you want another with same match up?
As you wish ! I’ll stick to monopurple for now, you can keep the same deck or change your specs. Maybe I should start this time ?

Yes, go ahead. I will give it one more try before I change my specs.
I don’t know if it’s the new Reaver or the changes to Tinkerer and Time Spiral, but either way the result looks awesome.
