Book Devourer

Magic's Silliness Value

Hello! I would like to politely voice that I think magic could afford to have a little more silliness, e.i. Squirrels. My favorite flavor texts are the ones that are humorous, and I’ve loved the recent uptick in silly flavors like fry or book devourer. I think it fits into the argument that you make different cards for different people. The same way the vorthoses or spikes get cards, there can be dark cards and more silly cards, and I don’t think that takes away from the game for the others.

Preaching to the choir. : )

Templating Issue Query

Who can I ask about templating issues? My playgroup is very confused by the card "Book Devourer" from Guilds of Ravnica. It says "When this deals damage to an opponent, you may discard your hand. If you do, draw that many cards". We cannot figure out if "that many cards" is equal to the damage dealt or the number of cards discarded.

The cards discarded. It’s a Winds of Change effect.
