Just Desserts

Just Desserts deals π damage to target creature. (π is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. (It's a smidgen more than 3.))

Omniscience_is_life un-cards won't necessarily be legal. But there are some less goofy and more reasonable cards(Earl of Squirrel was one I had in mind) that people might like to use outside of kitchen table. Stuff like Gleemax and Infinity Elemental are by far too silly to be using.

I would totally add Just Desserts even if it's just a worse Lightning Strike(which I see as likely to be added), just to have the option of dealing Pi damage. But I can see reasons to not use such cards.

I do have a couple cards I'd like to add, so if we set this up I'll be able to set up a good 100-ish card balanced list that can support a few fun archetypes.

dbpunk I think that's a little extreme, and also where'd my post go? I thought I made a response to Demon.

Anyways, I think the reasoning for any sort of creature type shouldn't be IRL biology, but preferably flavor. I mean, I really don't care if sharks and fish are really similar, and I definitely don't care about any argument that says sharks should have stayed fish. I like sharks. Sharks are big bitey fish. It's the fact that I get to play with this cooler thing that matters. I mean, you can't say "eldrazi don't exist" and get rid of them. But having eldritch aliens in the game? Fun flavorwise. They were imbalanced, but they're still cool.

Really, it's fun to play with your Catto deck with i can haz cheeseburger sleeves, or your doggo deck 'cos you like doggos, or your dinosaur deck to smash things, or your shark deck because sharks, or a snake deck because danger noodle, or spider deck because hairy nope-nope eating all the birbs, or your eldrazi deck 'cos you like cthulu, or you can make a squirrel deck, or a jank deck using only food cards like Hot Soup and Just Desserts and some of the Eldraine stuff. Nobody needs to care about the logic of this. The only reason I can think of someone to be mad is if they didn't get as much support as they wanted, but then again, top tier support for any of those great creatures would make them expensive and less fun to play.

Sorry for wall of text.

Fractions: I monstrosity Polukranos, World Eater X=8. Since Un-set cards are legal in the format, can I distribute a half of a damage to 16 different creatures? (for the purposes of something like Horobi, Death's Wail or Deathtouch)

Irrational numbers: In addition, when Unstable releases, Just Desserts will come out. Does that mean I can assign any fraction or irrational number as damage through Polukranos?

Infinity: Finally, if I use The Mimeoplasm to exile Earl of Squirrel and Infinity Elemental, will I get infinite +1/+1 counters and (if it can deal combat damage to a squirrel) infinite creatures?
