Shouldn't "journalist" be surrounded by quotes?

You could do the same thing for a card based on Jon Stewart, but it would have a completely different meaning.

I guess I'd rather have cheap puns than thematic game mechanic accuracy.

I wanted to make a Herman Cain one but I don't know enough about Pokemon.

Thought about including flavor text referencing that disturbed woman quoted by this forums poster's avatar and tagline, but it made me too uncomfortable.

These rules allow for so many clever little allusions.

You could give the creature a weakness in its rules text that both balances it out and gives it an additional allusion.

Something like:

"All red creatures gain 'T: Do one damage to target Undocumented Worker' as long as there are any Undocumented Workers in play."

Or:

"Red creatures attacking you get +1/+1 unless you pay (2)."

Variations on a theme or two...

Not sure if this one qualifies as election-themed, but I thought it was actually a pretty cool concept for a card in general:



I was gonna make it green but blue is the one that usually screws with control of resources, as I recall.

I'm not sure why anyone would ever play this. I guess as part of a control strategy where creatures with power greater than 1 are autmatically destroyed or something?




Remember cumulative upkeep? Do they still use that mechanic or what? I stopped paying attention to Magic after the first time they radically changed the style guide for the cards and made them uglier/less visually interesting. Incidentally, I wish this cardsmith thing had an option for "classic" card design styles.




Finding an image for this one reminded me of just how flipping lazy Bill Day is.

e: found the exact flavortext quote I was looking for

Dunno if that really has anything to do with the election, but

"Whenever a creature deals damage to Ted Rall, that creature becomes a Hitler until end of turn."

"Whenever Police Officer damages a black creature, roll a six-sided die. If the roll is even, all damage done to Police Officer this turn is reduced to zero. If the roll is odd, bury Police Officer."
