Creature - Vampire (1/2, black) Flying At the beginning of each player's upkeep, put a warp counter on target permanent Each creature with a warp counter on it gets -3/-3 Converted mana cost: 2 Creature - Zombie (2/1, black) As long as ~this~ is untapped, All permanents are black At the beginning of each opponent's end step, clash with an opponent. If you win, each opponent loses 4 life and you gain that much life Converted mana cost: 3 Land 1, T: add BBB to your mana pool T: add R to your mana pool. Spend this mana only on spells and activated abilities. When ~this~ is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, target player may return a creature card from his or her graveyard to hand T: any number of target Wizards get -1/-1 until end of turn for each card in your hand A vampire that murders/weakens things every turn, a Zombie that steals life just by existing and the Land of Dark Rituals with some extra abilities that nobody cares about. Well maybe if they're fighting Wizards, then it removes things just as hard as the Vampire.

Creature - Beast (1/2, green) shroud At the beginning of your upkeep, target player may pay X blue mana, where X is the number of Clerics an opponent controls. If that player doesn't, you may put any number of cards from hand onto the battlefield you may cast artifact spells without paying their mana cost Converted mana cost: 1 Oh hey, the strongest card ever printed Land Discard a card, Discard a card, T: add B to your mana pool for each card in your graveyard Sacrifice ~this~, Tap an untapped creature you control, T: add two mana of any one colour to your mana pool This is actually a sweet card idea and could be fixed: Magic Graveyard Land Magic Graveyard comes into play tapped. Discard a card, Tap: Add B to your mana pool for each creature card in your graveyard. or Overgrown Graveyard Land T: Exile any number of creature cards from your graveyard. For each creature exiled this way, add G to your mana pool. The easiest choice you'll ever make: Tribal Sorcery - Cleric (black) Choose one: you reveal the top seven cards of your library. you put all creature cards from among them into play, and put the rest on top of your library in any order and each opponent loses 4 life and you gain that much life; or destroy target Cleric Converted mana cost: 4 factorialite fucked around with this message at 20:37 on Jun 3, 2013 |

Land ~this~ enters the battlefield tapped. Pay 3 life, T, sacrifice ~this~: each player may search his or her library for up to four land cards and put them into hand. Each player who searched his or her library this way shuffles it. At the beginning of each opponent's upkeep, draw three cards Whenever ~this~ is tapped for mana, ~this~ gains ''When ~this~ is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, put a leak counter on target permanent'' and ''W: attach an Equipment in play to each creature with a leak counter on it. (Control of that Equipment doesn't change.)'' until end of turn The first ability seems a bit useless since the other guy gets it too, the second one is plain OP and the third one flat out doesn't work because you can't actually tap it for mana. Enchantment (black) B: each opponent gets 2 poison counters When ~this~ leaves the battlefield, up to one target green permanents gain protection from instant spells until end of turn --His lettuce gathers more than the most awesome pail – Odin Converted mana cost: 4 Play it in turn 4, turn 5 gets somebody 10 poison counters. Instant (blue) you may tap or untap all permanents --Her toe lives faster than even the aspirational mitten – Unknown Converted mana cost: 6 Can this untap lands that were tapped to pay it's cost?

Vomik posted:It doesn't say if you pay it you prevent the damage. Just that if you don't pay it you can do something to artifacts. It's phrased as a replacement effect--doing the stuff with artifacts replaces the damage. Of course, the ability doesn't actually function as written, because replacement effects are static abilities, wich never go on the stack, and it targets, meaning it must go on the stack, so that's just my best guess at what it's "supposed" to do.

Dungeon Ecology posted:Based on the new Bestow mechanic This seems more like a red card to me. The body itself makes sense as a black creature, but the aura aspect is more of a red effect for sure. I do like how it presents the options of playing an aggressive 2 drop, a buff aura, or removing a blocker. If I designed this card, I'd make the bestow cost red instead, but it's not too much of a stretch as is. Pretty sure Wizards would never print an off-color bestow cost though, because COMPLEXITY. If they made this card it would probably be all red.

I think this could be flavored with the Theros Returned city more known for their envy of the living. It's not that the can't block part is particularly out of flavor for black. Crippling Blight makes sense for black because it's making the creature weak and unable to keep up with attacking creatures. This effect, i.e. a buff aura that also makes the creature unable to block, has only ever been done twice, both on red cards (Maniacal Rage and Undying Rage). It evokes an incredible hulk-like transformation where the creature is so pumped up and pissed off that it won't listen to you if you tell it to block anything, which is red as heck. I honestly think you could justify doing it in any combination of red and/or black based on the flavor, but I think making the bestow cost red makes more sense within the color pie 'traditions'.

I meant to take out "until end of turn"; it's a relic from when I was imagining it as a red creature/black bestow with haste and -1/-1. In it's current state it would be templated more like: Creature Name R Haste, ~ can't block If ~ is a creature, sacrifice it at the beginning of the next end step. Bestow 1B Enchanted creature gains haste, -1/-1 and can't block. 1/1 Or black, without haste/sacrifice: Creature Name B ~ can't block Bestow 1B Enchanted creature gets -1/-1 and can't block. 1/1 But that loses the fun of a -1/-1 creature.

Aww, but I love off-color ability cycles. Bestow is pretty tricky though, since you have to come up with a mechanic that fits both colors but works better as a creature in one and an aura in the other. Like maybe a 1/1 White soldier with Exalted that bestows for black mana. HitTheTargets fucked around with this message at 16:05 on Sep 5, 2013 |

Hmm, probably. I came up with that off the cuff, thinking that black would want to beef up a big sac outlet, while white would want a chump blocker with an upside during the attack step.

A while ago I thought it might be interesting to try making two-mana versions of all the Lorwyn plainswalkers. Here's what I came up with: Ajani WW Plainswalker - Ajani +1 Creatures you control get +1/+1 until your next upkeep. -2 Creatures you control gain indestructible and lifelink until your next upkeep. -4 You get an emblem with “Creatures you control get +1/+1.” starting loyalty 2 Jace UU Plainswalker - Jace +2 Look at target player’s hand. -2 Return target nonland permanent to its owner’s hand. -4 Name a nonland card. You get an emblem with “The named card can’t be cast as long as you control a Jace plainswalker.” starting loyalty 1 Liliana BB Plainswalker - Liliana +2 Sacrifice a creature. If you do, draw a card. -1 Search your library for a card with the same name as a creature card in your graveyard and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library. -7 Return all creature cards from your graveyard to the battlefield. starting loyalty 1 Chandra RR Plainswalker - Chandra +1 Chandra deals 2 damage to each player. -1 Chandra deals 2 damage to target creature or player. -5 Put 10 1/1 red Elemental creature tokens onto the battlefield and you get an emblem with “Creatures you control have haste.” starting loyalty 2 Garruk GG Plainswalker - Garruk 0 Add G to your mana pool. 0 Put a 1/1 green Squirrel creature token onto the battlefield. -X Target creature gains +X/+X and gains trample until end of turn. starting loyalty 4 It turned out that it was pretty interesting, so I recommend other people try it as well. Things I currently want to fix with these: Ajani's ultimate is really boring, I'm not sure how to word Jace's emblem so it works with any Jace, and I still need to think of fancy titles for them.

I think that Jace ultimate shouldn't use an emblem. For it to work the way I think you mean it to, it would have to be worded like "Name a nonland card. You get an emblem with 'The named card can't be cast.'" Or something like that. It's hard to get it to work. The way you have it worded makes it seem like you have an emblem with an activated ability that you can use repeatedly to just name every card in your opponent's deck.

I basically just stole the wording from meddling mage. Looking at it again, it looks like it should have a "as this comes into play" component, but maybe your suggestion works better. e: Which works best between adding "As this enters play," "As this enters the command zone," and just moving the naming out of the emblem?

Actually, the biggest issue I have is Lili's +2 needing an additional cost. You're essentially going to be sacking all your creatures as soon as you play them just to plus your plus guy, so that you can get back the creatures you sacked. I don't know what your intent is, but it'd read better to me as "+2: Draw a card. If it's a creature card, discard it." Also I can't imagine Gary making Squirrels instead of Beasts unless he's still just a kid. So embrace the Watchmen Babies aspect of this and make their fancy titles "Jace, Teacher's Pet" and "Ajani, Hall Monitor."
