    Okay… so what’s up with the wording of the first attack? :D

      “How about: Flip a coin. If tails, this attack does nothing?”

      But Wizards of the Coast were WAY too hipster for that.

        It’s not Wizards’ fault, this kind of wording is on the Japanese card. It is the only attack in the entire TCG with this quirk.
        The attack’s text in Japanese says: コインを1枚投げ、「おもて」の数×20のダメージ。 When put through Google Translate, it is “Toss a coin and deal damage equal to the number of “faces” x 20.” “Faces” means “heads” in this context.
