If X is 2 or lower, draw X cards. If X is 3, put X +1/+1 counters on X target creatures. If X is 4, return X target creatures from your graveyard to the battlefield. If X is 5 or more, Variety deals x damage to target creature or player. If X is 10 or more, you win the game.

Overdedication
Enchantment 4U
Whenever a land enters the battlefield under an opponent's control, that player loses 1 life and sacrifices a land unless they cast a spell.
Make a card that does nothing, but would see a lot of competitive play.

Spinx of New Prahv
Creature - Sphinx
Flash, Flying, Vigilance
Addendum — If you cast this spell during your main phase, draw two cards.
2/4
I figure this wouldn't see any constructed play, as its 2/4 for 4 isn't impressive, and Flash, Flying, and Vigilence are excellent keywords, so a great limited pick, but not enough for a constructed deck to run, even with possible card advantage.

the idea behind this one is the old legends of a turtle so large it gets mistaken as an island. so the landsift is it "waking up", and the bounce to hand is it submerging.
