This sounds like it may be very similar. I forget what we called it, but here is how it worked (we probably got the format from a Wizard article or something)(and I may be forgetting some things here). Before each player's turn they would role a 6d and on a: 1 - all current enchantments/artifacts were removed 2 - we removed the oldest one 3 - nothing happened 4 - nothing happened 5 - add a new enchantment/artifact from the library, remove the oldest one if needed as you could only have 3 in effect at any one time 6 - remove all current enchantments/artifacts and add 3 more from the library Those of us that had lots of cards used to carry around a stack of cards with fun stuff for just this sort of game. Basically any enchantment or artifact that didn't target or require tapping could be used. “Back in the day…” we used to play a variant of Magic were there was a central library of global enchantments and artifacts that would come into and leave play changing the game every turn.

Before each player’s turn they would role a 6d and on a:
1 – all current enchantments/artifacts were removed
2 – we removed the oldest one
3 – nothing happened
4 – nothing happened
5 – add a new enchantment/artifact from the library, remove the oldest one if needed as you could only have 3 in effect at any one time
6 – remove all current enchantments/artifacts and add 3 more from the library

Those of us that had lots of cards used to carry around a stack of cards with fun stuff for just this sort of game. Basically any enchantment or artifact that didn’t target or require tapping could be used.

My neighbors tried to make our own vanguard cards, but got distracted by something shiny. Who knows what fun will come from this. I think this could be fun.
