I like the idea of U&T and I think magicians is an obvious choice for a similar effect outside of the priest theme (but with the magician/demon twist of utilizing bottom of deck).

Astonished Attention was a card that originated with a verse and is my attempt at starting a sub-theme for magicians about artifacts. I added the magician restriction because otherwise it seemed too powerful for the current magician splash-type defenses.

Both of them are awesome. I agree with MKC about Secret Arts. You could also make it look at the top/bottom X, where X is the number of your Magicians, but it's also fine the way it is.

Thanks for the comments! I updated Secret Arts to allow looking at top or bottom and to look at a number of cards equal to your magicians (thanks MKC and ProfAlstad!).

I personally like the idea of just going with 3 top or bottom instead of X.  It's tough to have a defense that needs to be put in play to work. This is especially true with no protection from discard for magicians.

That's a good point. Perhaps I'll make an Artifact that gives them territory protection (to go along with the Artifact theme I'm trying to make). Thanks for the thought.

I may also change it back to a static 3 just to make sure it's always useful.

Awesome cards. Well done, Scott.

Thanks Gabe! That means a lot.

I like astonished attention, magician demon combo would be beast with this 

Thanks! Yeah, magicians and demons is one of my more favorite combos with magicians.
