#Prepare gives +2/+2 for 2 mana and scaling up makes the lifegain stronger but also less flexible for untapping so i think it's fine

Big fat combat trick to pump all your excess mana into!
Cards used as example for balancing the modes:
#asks#custom cards#a little bit worried about the red + white mode#+7 power + trample + lifelink is. a lot#but it costs 6 mana so it might be fine#probably not even good enough to be a modern rare anyway#anyway finding comparisons for balancing was kinda hard#i'm not entirely sure how spree is balanced but i tried costing each mode like an individual spell#the drawback is that you have to pay 1 more mana but the benefit is the versatility and ability to cast multiple modes#so i think it balances out#couldn't quite find perfect comparisons for the red and white modes#Colossus is multicolor but it's also a modal spell so i think red could maybe probably get +4/+2 and trample for 2 mana#Prepare gives +2/+2 for 2 mana and scaling up makes the lifegain stronger but also less flexible for untapping so i think it's fine#plus Prepare has Fight as an aftermath#another comparison is Butcher's Glee which gives +3/+0 and lifelink and regenerate for 3 mana#regenerate is basically indestructible so that's even better than +3 toughness so that kinda makes up for the lack of untapping#overall i THINK each mode is balanced as a standalone spell and that's kinda sorta how some spree spells are balanced so i think it's fine#rare spree spells like Three Steps Ahead have some modes that would be too strong as a normal spell. 2 mana to counter any spell is strong#and the other modes (2 mana to draw 2 discard 1 and 3 mana to make a copy of a creature) are still reasonable as standalone spells#so i think the balancing of my spell is fine and maybe even a little underpowered for a rare#i had no idea what to name it at first so i started thinking about jeskai (both the clan and the color trio) and remembered Hinata#a jeskai legend that wants you to target stuff! perfect!#one quick trip to the wiki to read its lore and i had the perfect name#this was made for the inventor's fair contest this week to make a card that can target multiple things#and boy do i love targeting things! so i came up with this unique little idea that fits both my tastes and the contest perfectly!#i'd be surprised if no one else references Hinata in their cards#oh yeah i wanted all the modes to be different sizes so that's why i insisted on the white mode being big#made this yesterday and looking at it again today i'm still satisfied with it so i think i'll submit it
