The forecast clause is what reframes the symmetry. A scaling group-draw spell asks for politics: cast it for a small X and everyone refuels equally, which means the spell half alone never gains tempo, only goodwill. The forecast ability turns that even-handed body into a repeatable engine you control. Revealing it from hand during your upkeep, once a turn, hands every player a card again, and the key word is your upkeep: you draw first into the new resources, then act on your turn while opponents wait a full rotation to use theirs. That is the asymmetry hidden inside an evenly distributed effect. Forecast as a mechanic was always built around cards that wanted to sit in hand and leak value rather than be spent, and Skyscribing sharpens the tension that creates to a point: the spell half is a one-shot group refuel priced by X, while the from-hand half is a slow grind that quietly bends a symmetric draw toward whoever holds the card. The design lives or dies on whether you can convert that timing edge before the table's collective card advantage catches up to you.
