Like the first version this looks like a far too weak Bishop variant. The benefit of using this as payload and Curser in the later part of the game most likely doesn't compensate that you paid $4 to do something for everybody.

I'm going to have a fairly extended test session tonight, which will help me get an idea of how powerful it is in different permutations. Cost is not final.

For now, I've also changed it so the card other people can trash can't be a Curse, and running it at $3. The reasoning for the drop in cost is its similarity to Forager (a Trash + Action card.)

After a number of testing games, settled with the following:

Quote
Snake Charmer - Action - Attack $4
+1 Action
+$1
You may trash a card from your hand. If you trashed two or more cards this turn, +$2.

Each other player may trash a non-Curse card from their hand. If they don't, they gain a Curse.

On a side note, it turns out that the Snake Charmer becomes an attack that punishes other players for streamlining their decks too much.

After additional testing, I buffed that "payoff" for trashing two or more cards to +$3, giving a fully-loaded Snake Charmer $4.

This makes Snake Charmer sort of a hybrid between Fool's Gold and Bishop, with maybe a little Torturer thrown in.
