>I'm absolutely sure Essence is OP
Why do you think that? I don't really see it, but I could be wrong. As for the other, wouldn't a more accurate ability be something like
>Each creature you control gets +1/+1 for each other creature you control.
Maybe. And as for Protoss and Zerg, just make cards that adapt them directly if you want.

>>51404662
I'm just sure there's some easy infinite combos or something like that similar to necrotic ooze but on the battlefield instead.

and I don't want to make Protoss and Zerg, I was just making other cards and thought about those two and their "creation" by the xel'naga and was inspired

I like it as a color shift, seems moderately okay in white so it works well. Is it a one of or do you have a lot of colorshifted cards? I'm a sucker for that border

>>51404836
Nah, it's fine.

I've done a few colorshifts, not a whole lot. I'm sure I could be at it for days if I just tried to colorshift as much as possible. I do think it's an interesting exercise for flavoring though. That is, getting across a particular flavor through the name and mechanics. Like this, using darkness to justify Hexproof. Honestly, I am kinda disappointed that the use of darkness for something like this hasn't been done much, but on the other hand, I realize that it breaks the pie.

>>51405402
Hard to tell. The thing with Scry is that it's one of those mechanics that's useful, but it doesn't actually DO anything. Like looking at your opponents' hands. It's cool, but does seeing their cards stop them from killing you with them? No, not really.

>Any other nonblack examples?
I did the first three you linked to, and I had this idea recently, of a Blue variant of Fear. The idea being that Blue is very clever and can trick other creatures to get past them, but other Blue creatures are impossible to trick, and artifact creatures are unliving and essentially too dumb to trick. Though now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever shifted to Green. Might need to change that.

>>51405549
This is a popular one, so popular that Wizards probably will do it if they ever do another set with a colorshifted theme.

>>51405696
Honestly I quite like this. It's creature removal that depends on your own creature sticking around. I think it's actually very clever and very green.
It's removal but you don't 'properly' get rid of the opponent's creature. And losing yours gives theirs back. Actually makes tons of sense the more I think about it. Nice!

>>51405762
Yeah, no U.

>>51405836
This is more what I was expecting with the 'Yeah, no.' comment. >>51405762

Just plain outright exile is to close to hard spot removal, which they don't like to give green.
Flavor is sweet though, and that's a fairly obscure card too. That vampire from Dark Ascension iirc.
This would be very nice colorshifted into multicolored black+green.

Well, colorshifts are cool and everything, but I feel like I should get back to my CO set. This is Cassie, haven't updated her in a while. Honestly, the Wonder Woman stuff hasn't been that great to develop because there's honestly not much to convert to Magic. I mean, the powers essentially just boil down to basic flying brick. Strong, tough, flies. And that's it. Though I have been having quite a bit of fun with making "Auras and Equipments matter" as the Amazon tribal mechanic. If anyone has any suggestions for what to do with Cassie here, I'm all ears.

>>51405974
>Just plain outright exile is to close to hard spot removal, which they don't like to give green.
Well, yeah, that's why it's a colorshift and not an actual Green card. I posted a mono-Black card with Hexproof earlier in the thread too, as well as a mono-Black counterspell, both of those colorshifted as well.

I would put the populate before evolve, so that the card reads better. Forecast also needs to be more expensive or have more colors.

Noted. These are all probably shite from a balance/cost perspective, but they were fun to make.

>>51407228
The way it's ordered right now is perfect. Evolve is an ability keyword similar to the evergreen keywords, where as populate isn't. Show me a card where a non-ability keyword was listed first on the card.

>>51407228
>>51407193
>>51407441
When it comes to keywords like populate, look at what they did with Bygone Bishop and Bearer of OVerwhelming Truths. Very similar to your card here, notice how the ability keywords like Prowess and Flying are the first things listed on the card, and then the investigate trigger.

New version. Anon said the last version had too much going on, so I deleted the entire first ability and replaced that with Hexproof. Considering how the repeatable O-Ring effect works, I was wondering if I could get away with lowering the mana cost for Stormy, since I feel like lowering the ability cost might be too oppressive.

>>51412698
>~ can't be blocked.
As for the last ability, I personally would change it to return the Horror to hand first, then discard, just so you have the choice to chuck the Horror. Kinda like... I dunno, Fleshbag, if that makes sense. You also need to update your frames.

White can do just actual turn aside if you want. You don't need to make it strictly worse. Hell you could probably slap, "You gain 1 life" on turn aside and put it in white and it would still be fine.

really garbage but it's what you'd expect from a 2 mana walker. This feels really mono R. Like, all of these effects have really only been printed in red. this fails to be BR.

Seems fine, if a little too niche. Does your set contain a lot of land fall or something?

THis is really silly but feels fine. Getting to fire off a bunch of -2/-3 effects in 1 turn could be insane tempo but having to use 5 colors to do it makes it fine.
>Midnight Lotus
All this says to me is, "what can I do to break this?" and the first thing that came to mind was finding a way to make equipping free so I can use this + resembling skeleton for infinite mana. There isn't really a way to balance this without ruining the black lotus feel. I'll just say, it's too good, but there is no reasonable way to make it broken so it's fine.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of "same name as this" mechanics. But that's probably just me. Anyway, the reminder text shouldn't actually use the name of the card itself, you should use reminder text that could work on pretty much every card that Demanding is on.

Oh god, I just realized what Demanding does. What on earth is this?

>Squander
No, please no. Please don't use Demanding. It feels like one of those mechanics put onto cards that are too good to try and justify how good they are. But on the other hand, you do so many different things with it, I can't really tell what it's for.

>>51415600
Demanding is supposed to be a taxing mechanic that affects all players using the card. There's times where having copies in the graveyard is good and others that they are not. The difference between Rift Sweep and Squander shows that. Rift Sweep is supposed to be good on it's first and third casting, but not as good any other time, which makes "mirror" matches more unique than who drew better, it's who uses it better. Squander is fine if it exists in a format where cards like RIP and Leyline of the Void aren't there, and I wanted this to be more of a standalone set. Limited and Block Construction mainly.

This needs to be rewritten. Also, I don't really like how this works, seems easily exploitable. I think it should offer the players a choice, similar to Choice of Damnations or something.

>>51416091
>Tired Knight
It's a 3 drop that's effectively a 5 drop.
Cast on T3 it enters tapped. T4 comes it's still tapped, T5 it's untapped. Flavor is that he's a powerful knight who doesn't want to do anything, but after awhile he gets up and does his thing.

>Rage Cultist
CoCo, Chord of Calling, etc.

>Muh Lava
It has interesting origins when making something. I wanted to make a creature that has a subgame of itself on the card.
Practically you trade life for counters that you can cash into life at a later date. It makes an interesting decision on how much life you want to pay since paying zero can result in your opponent just killing it themselves and you lose the game, or if you want to be a faggot, kill it when the first trigger is on the stack and get a draw, I might get rid of that, but I thought it would at least be interesting. But it's like the Innistrad Mythic Trees.It's just a subgame with life points. If that makes sense.

That kind of effect is weird. Make it a permanent effect of some sort, like " At the beginning of a player's upkeep, you may look at the top two cards of that player's library ", or make it something like you'd need to tap that creature for the effect, then that creature is untapped at the end of the effect.

Yes, its due to all of those factors at once. It means a cheater could look at them, quickly reorganize them, and basically get to almost-fate-seal their opponent when they aren't supposed to be able to.
You can't cheat it like this if it was just 1 card. It would still have the risk of ordering getting cheated if it was an activated ability.

It's fine.
Realistically, paying 3 colors of mana for a 4/3 is what you'll get. It slowly dies, and at best lets you get free attacks in for a few turns till it dies sense your opponent can just kill your things on your turn.
It can't even be used to protect a combo sense unless the combo pieces are on the board before the trigger resolves they won't have protection, and if they were already on the board your opponent already had their chance to remove it.

Remph? Kind of but not really. The issue is for turn 3s constructed decks for modern+ have better turn 3s in the form of bolt + goyf, lil of V, dack fayden, ect. A 4/3 for 3 is nice, and the effects it gives can be relevent, but it would probably be too slow for any kind of robots build for modern or legacy, though it could be a 1 of.
As for a standard format, I think it would come down to how important being able to get past blockers is, as well as how mono-colored the format is. But, if a format of standard is mono colored while sunburst is in the keyword pool there is something wrong.

Because I'm a dingus and designed two of them, went to go work some homework problems, and then came back and designed the third. It should be Rare.

And I suck at flavor text and Mercury's alchemical properties (transformation, fluidity, volatility) didn't quite capture where I wanted to go with the card. Fluidity seemed like a poor way to refer to intelligence or quickness of thought (although I can see people disagreeing) and volatility was too close to flammability (more properly combustibility) for my tastes.

Or just make it actual kicker, because then the rules backend already exists. Or keyword it, so then you can do "If ~ was scornful, that opponent..."

>>51423174
A 3/2 blocker that attacks as a 2/1 evasive, and then... dies? Provided I have two untapped colors on turn two? Still seems a bit bad.

It's a colorshift. You realize what that is, right? It's taking a card and altering it to work in a different color, keeping as much of the original intact as possible. And the color it goes to it doesn't go to because it fits within the color pie, but because it works from a flavor standpoint. It's a "What If?" version of a card, that's all.

This set is going to be designed around draft play so consider things if you had a 40 card library. The idea is, you can get slightly over valued effects but at the threat of losing the game if things stall out. It also helps enables Sacrilege.
I might change it to mill 5 instead of mill 3 so it's a more impactful trade off.

No idea if this is anything close to decent. Flavor of the character is to blur the line between plants and animals, so here she makes lands into creatures and creatures into lands.

>>51423326
>Scorn
Hmm, I think I'm starting to see why Wizards made Delirium look at types of cards instead of the absolute number of cards. It doesn't really affect the experience much if you play in limited or constructed. Well, if you're going to mill a lot and exile cards from your graveyard, maybe throw in a few effects to get cards out of your graveyard and into your hand or library. Not only so you aren't in so much danger of milling yourself, but also because with the other ability, tucking some cards from your graveyard could be a downside.

Shit, forgot to say thanks for the feedback on Billy. Well, thanks.

>>51423448
The problem is that it slowly decays and, while protection from the color of your choice, you're effectively paying X mana for an X/X-1. You're probably going to, best case scenario, cast it as a 4/3 or 3/2 that will be one point smaller by the time it can actually attack.

Compare Woodland Wanderer, where you get a 3/3 vigilant trampler even if you can't muster up a second or third color. Converge/Sunburst is a reward, here, not a requirement to make it not suck.

I'd make it a 1/1 or 0/0 with Sunburst and have
>Remove a +1/+1 counter from ~: Until end of turn, creatures you control get protection from the color of your choice.

But most of the Sunbursters were utter garbo, so I dunno how pushed we can make this.

Hmm, yeah, it would probably just be easier to get rid of the last ability entirely and rework the other two. Well, I feel like making lands 1/1's makes them way too fragile. Maybe 3/3 or 4/4's? And as for creatures, I'll just make them Birds of Paradise. Well, then I just have to figure out a cost for the card.

>Winds of Mercy
Ooh, I'm not a fan of exile recursion like this. Cards that can recur themselves from exile, fine, but I feel like this might be too much. But since they go into the library, I could just be overreacting. Also, on a sidenote, this is another case where you used an ability word where you should've used a keyword. Also, I feel like this is way more GW than WU. G for Fog, W for Scrying on attack. Though you could probably make that Red.

>>51423651

Eh I dunno, I think mine is better. With Footsteps of the Goryo you're basically spending a card for a creature's ETB/death effect. Unless that's really good or the creature has haste, it's not worth it. For mine, there's no loss in card advantage and you can cycle it in a pinch.

>>51423887
Not everything needs to give you card advantage. Sometimes you should be happy to spend a card for an effect. Goryo's also let's you use activated abilities, gives you a turn of passive abilities, and even gives you an end of turn trigger. And you can attack with hasters. It's not that great a card, but it's better at abusing the graveyard. Momentary Breakthrough is only good with ETB/death triggers, and at that point I'd rather play flickers.

>she's sure as hell powerful.
I'm just not sure why anybody would bother playing a below curve body that, sure, provides evasion to your whole board, but fades away incredibly rapidly. It doesn't impact the board when it lands, and doesn't really have protection when you want it most because your opponent can just pop it on their turn or on your upkeep. Even the protection for evasion will only blank some of their creatures, because its not true unblockable.

But I like my Legendaries to be splashy and powerful, and the best developer I am not. Not a fan of Hope of Ghirapur, though.

Well, I haven't gotten that far. A sorcery does not a whole Unzan make.

Interesting, but might be too cheap. And a non-legendary making a legendary seems sort of odd, although it being a defender reduces some of the mechanical awkwardness, I think.

>>51437771
Interesting, but probably too cheap at RR. Blue gets these sorts of effects on similar stat totals (typically 1/3s) at 2U with some sort of partial evasion or trick (Prowess, Islandwalk, etc.). In a burn or aggro deck, shocking the face is almost as good as a card, and a 2/2 menace for 2 is no joke.

>>51437867
Relentless Dead is a 2/2 for BB.
The thing is that your opponent gets to choose if they want to get shocked or let you draw a card. It could be a 2/1, but I'm worried it may be gimped by putting it in Gut Shot range.

Also, keep in mind that as far as opponents are concerned, it's practically a 4/2 on turn 3 until blocked by two or more creatures, so maybe you're right and that it should be a 1/2 instead..

>>51437771

Seems really niche. I guess it would be fine on a few cards but not as a main mechanic.

>>51438998
Worship seems fine as a mechanic, but it's much better in Limited than in any sort of other format, where lifegain isn't as big a deal.

Have you considered a different form of Worship for each color? I'm just commenting off the cuff so if someone else suggested this and you don't want to do that, feel free to disregard. It would increase complexity but allow you to do more things, and would prevent oddness like lifegain in red and blue, something that limited what Investigate could really show up on, for example (though that was as much for flavor reasons as anything else, most likely, since white doesn't typically get such easy card draw, though Clues are basically cantrips which is where white gets most of its draw from usually)

Is this card over/under costed? Not too sure how much discard plus sac if worth if it hits you as well.

>>51439116

"Each player sacrifices a creature" is a 1 mana effect, typically. As is "each player discards a card.", although you often see the latter stapled to a 1- or 2-cost body (Rotting Rats, Sibsig Icebreakers) rather than as its own card.

No idea whats going on with that second effect, though, but the rest of this is a card that costs BB or something.

>Form of worship in each color?
The sets theme is: Resources and using them. Each enemy color pairing has a resource that they share use of.
RW: Forge. Makes slightly worse bone saws but they have things to buff them or make extra use out of them.
BG: Exile 3 things for your yard for an effect.
RU: Refine. Make lil colorless lotus petals. Obviouslly like RW, they can do more with them.
GU: Spore counters. They use em to do shit. I might change this to energy but I don't really want to have energy set to only 2 colors.
WB: Worship. Make blessing tokens, same as the others and do more with them. Might put some enchantment creatures in here but maybe not.

>>51439477
Oh god Equipment tokens. Some people love this mechanic, other people despise this mechanic. Be careful with it.

I think a lot of times people try and design a mechanic for each color pair and I think that might end up with a mechanical glut. Wizards has been trying to shift towards fewer mechanics with deeper space that can show up across the colors. Kaladesh is mechnically small, relatively speaking, but it has Vehicles, Fabricate, and Energy (plus a theme of "Artifacts matter") as key mechanics. Shadows over Innistrad had Delirium, Investigate, Madness, and Transform.

Having five core mechanics and them being pidgeonholed in color pairs makes it difficult to design any sort of synergy or support for that mechanic, and some mechanics may have complexity or pie issues that prevent them from being present across the rarities.

Also, a puss is a feline, pus is the stuff that comes from infected wounds. Neither is really fungoid.

>>51438998
blessing is the name of a card

>>51439477
I think with Forge, it would work better if the bonus was +1/+1. Because then I think people would understand it better. "Oh, it's a +1/+1 counter I can move around" basically. And the wording should be
>Create a colorless Equipment artifact token named Provision with "Equipped creature gets +1/+1" and equip 1.
I'm also not sure about the name "provision" since it's so nonspecific.

>>51439559
Thanks, I changed them to "Grace".

>>51439610
I felt like a flat +1/+1 would be a bit too strong. I guess your point on making it easier to understand though is fair. I think I'll keep them as bone-saws for now, and if i find the mechanic is difficult for people to remember I'll change it to +1/+1 and 2 to equip.
>Wording change
Thanks famicon.
>Name is strange
Yeah, it was really hard to figure out a name for it. I didn't want it to be so specific as, "Sword" or, "Really good rock". That way the token art could be multiple things ranging from like, a sword, to gauntlets, to even a fancy steel wand/staff. I'll probably change the name again once i figure something out that fits.

>>51439540
>too many mechanics
I am a bit worried on that too, but it felt really out of place to do an uneven amount of them. I'd also argue Keladesh has a lot of mechanics and themes in it.
It has, Artifacts matter in RBU, counters mater in GB, energy use and production everywhere, Vechicles staring in RW and splashed in B, entry trigger farming in WU, even a memey amount of tribal support. I think they aren't cutting down on mechanics, they are cutting down on new keywords.
>Colors might get difficult to meld well together
I tried to make all the mechanics simple enough that they'd work anywhere. The only one that really fails at this is the spore counter theme.
I might cut spores and compost, or replace them with a "create creature tokens" thing to make the set more of a tokens theme and just spread the mechanics around a bit more.

>>51439753
>Thanks famicon.
You're welcome. I know my feedback on balance and power is mediocre at best, so I guess I try to make up for it by knowing more about wording and how abilities work. Speaking of

Not him, but that's an archetype, not a mechanic. But yes, Wizards did make KLD and AER so that the color combos had certain draft archetypes in mind, which are pretty easy to figure out if you find their gold cards.

>>51439753
Things like +1/+1 counters, ETB effects, and "card type matters" (i.e. Artifact matters) are fairly cheap, design wise. They don't require your player to learn and evaluate new words because its assumed they're already familiar with card types and what they do. Lots of cards through many sets have been great with +1/+1 counters, abusing ETB effects, and wanting you to have lots of the same type of thing. Things like new counters, unusual tokens, and alternative resources really take up complexity space.

>cards
A terribly unbalanced cycle of enemy-color titans. Ditched the 6/6 P/T scheme for more flexibility in the triggered abilities. Tell me how they suck, people.

>>51439477

Once again, asking for help on this card because I don't really know what to do with it, I can't really read any unique flavor from Wonder Girl's powerset, it's just "strong, tough, flies" so I just threw in some GW goodstuff with an Aura trigger, since my Amazons like Aura and Equipment, and frankly I hadn't made an Aura trigger yet.

Fair enough, I'll juts use that wording. Kinda surprised I didn't think of it myself until now, but oh well.

And for the record, this CO "set" isn't really made as an actual set, it's really just a collection of cards that are adapted from various comic book concepts. It's not meant to be drafted, and it's only called a set for the sake of convenience. And yeah, this card specifically is a card I'm far less concerned about playability, it's more about just creating it for the sake of flavor, and uniqueness I guess.

>Fortunate Findings
Not sure how I feel about mana gen in Blue like this. Blue making mana for artifacts or something, fine, but this mana could be used on anything. Maybe GR, but it would feel kinda odd because GR tends to not like artifacts. Mono-Red? Gotta say, very smart of you to make it so the Gems ETB tapped.

You should probably just word the trigger as:

The Refine keyword is intended to be UR (and dabbled in B) centered sense those colors tend to get the most interaction with artifacts. I could make it XURR.

-2 should be worded, "~ deals damage equal to the number of energy counters you have to target creature or player."
The -5 should read, "... with 'This creature's power and toughness is equal to the number of energy counters you have.' "
The card seems fine. All the effects are sub-par which is exactly what a 2 mana walker should do.

>>51444219
>Whenever an Aura becomes attatched to ~, you may choose one --
Doesn't work. You have to choose modes as part of putting the ability on the stack, whereas "mays" are checked on resolution.

Sulfur Rain is an interesting idea that is very awkwardly implemented. If there are no artifacts in play, you can't cast it for X = odd. Also, zero is even.

Is English not your first language? It's "Disciple" not "Deciple". And why this wording? Why not

>>51444525
It should probably have P/T equal to 1 plus the number of energy counters you have, or it'll die on ETB because SBAs are checked before its trigger will resolve.

Fleshing out some mechanics, would like input.

Divinity: Keyword. If you control a permanent with divinity and another permanent with divinity would ETB under your control or come under your control (IE, mind control), it is instead returned to its owner's hand. Many other things (see Worship, below) care about Divinity.

Prophet. Not a keyword or ability word, but instead a series of creatures (generally) with prophet in the name and an ability that lets them tutor for Divinity if some condition is met.

Worship. Ability word. Things that turn on or happen only when you have something with divinity in play.

Heresy. Ability word. Effects that, if a Divinity is in play, hurt both players and otherwise benefit both players.

>>51447259
Seems like an extra complicated super-legendary.

>>51447259

All the fucking time.

Giving all your creatures haste is a very strong ability. He either needs to cost more or have a restriction or downside. Flashing other creatures is also a very green ability, even if it's only during combat.

I mean, Fervor gives all your creatures haste for the same CMC and easier color requirements. Being a much easier to remove creature type for harder to cast cost is downside enough to me.
>Flashing creatures
This isn't really a green monopoly, there's plenty of precedent for white creatures with flash (mostly with Defender or high CMC, I'll give you that). The whole point of this guy is combattricks.card, and in an EDH context (most of my cards are designed with EDH in mind) he's still fucking garbage competitively so I'm not too worried about it.

All Fervor does is give creatures haste. Fervor can't attack, which is very big downside for aggro decks that would want global haste.

First bit is correct. It's scry/scries/scried/scrying. The Comp Rules entry (701.16b) uses "scries" so Magic uses the standard English conjugation.

Second bit is incorrect. Only one card actually grants flash (Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir). Every other card grants pseudo-flash, i.e. allows itself/others to be cast "as though it had flash."

Why don't they use Teferi's wording as opposed to pseudo-flash? Who knows.

Been having issues with this one for a while. Decided to just go crazy with it. I think the flavor should be somewhat obvious.

Better as an uncommon, I think.

>>51433179
Bleh. I don't really like it. Basing an entire mechanic around gaining life seems like a bad idea.

>>51459155
I'm not a fan of the R. When I hear Poison Ivy, my first thought is "Black-green." The card also isn't red at all; it would fit perfectly in Golgari.
That said, I like the design a lot. Fits the character really well.

Does anyone happen to know if there's a template similar to the transforming Eldrazi cards from Eldritch Moon, where it's normal on the front but clear on the back? I looked at the MSE link but couldn't find anything.

Anyway, Copperhead. Master poisoner, which is why she uses poison counters and has DTouch, and Illusions because that's what happens to Bats after she poisons him in Arkham Origins. And discard just for fun. I have tried dual-colors for her before, but none of them really satisfy me.

>>51459389
>Poison Ivy
Thanks a lot! And yeah, I was just thinking about the R in her cost. My fault for taking color advice from Kresh, should've known better than to trust someone from Alara. So, final cost, 3BG? 4BG?

>Stormborn Avenger
I've always liked this sort of mechanic. Not entirely sure about the cost though. Maybe 1UR? Hey, aren't you the one who told me to do the Authority?

DV8: Gods and Monsters. Awesome series. So, Freestyle. Looks through multiple timelines to solve problems. So Scry then find your answer.

New Magic set is Egyptian theme. Come up with new cards and mechanics that would fit that theme.

>>51460085
Mechanic: Legendary creatures who transform into Legendary Enchantment Creatures - Gods upon dying.

Ammon, Pharaoh of Sol - 1WW
Legendary Creature - Human (M)
If Ammon, Pharaoh of Sol were to die, instead exile Ammon, then return him to the battlefield transformed under his owner's control.
1/3
//
Ammon-Ra, God of Sol
Legendary Enchantment Creature - God (M)
Indestructible
As long as your devotion to white is less than five, Ammon-Ra is not a creature.
5/5

Noted. It will be made into a 3/2.

>>51450370
The untap trigger seems a bit wonky but is fine. There isn't really anything to change, though arguably it is a rather slow control card with little pay off. I'd honestly rather run Goblin Sharpshooter.
Maybe make it you can deal more damage by stacking more counters?
>T: ~ deals 1 damage to each creature for every aim counter on it.

>>51450380
This seems really spicy with ping effects but that's about it. Also you might want to add some spaces to the end of the text box so the text isn't overlapping the power/toughness.

>>51452882
This feels way too good. It's an over costed mini brain storm then an actual brain storm. At worst, it's pay 2UU, draw 5, put back 3 at instant speed. That's really good. Especially with things like fetches sense you get to filter a lot of cards away.
The flashback should be at least 1U. Maybe make it sorcery speed.

Flash is a GU effect. White almost never does it, same with R.
The standard cost of a "your shit has haste" effect is 3 mana with either no other effect, or a small one. Right now, anything stronger then Fires of Yavimaya isn't really printable.
A 2/2 with firststrike that also gives your shit haste is definitely too good even if you dropped the flash effect.

>>51453681
Shouldn't be a permanent effect.

>>51454266
>Engineer feels too good
It's hard to say famicon sense if you try to do the memnite function all you end up doing is cycling a bunch of cards. I guess I'll make the alt cost have a flat requirement of U + sac.

>Junk feels too good
Made it cost R and the rest.

>Vailborn seems like it's really niche and a bit too strong
I'll make it cost 1WB. As for there not feeling like enough fodder besides the worship triggers, there will be other popable enchantments.

>>51459389
>Lifegain centered mechanic feels bad
It's actually also enchantment focused as well. The life gain is just so the enchantments have a purpose besides being fodder, just like how the Gem tokens are mostly artifact fodder but offer another use.

>>51460535
>Bloom
Is this really something so complicated that it needs its own keyword?

>>51458354
I'd like a citation on base P/T not being a readable quantity. I'm aware that no currently existing card reads base P/T, but a reading of the comp rules does not indicate that such would be impossible.

>>51460811
>Base Power, Base Toughness
>Effects that change the base power and/or base toughness of a creature set one or both of those values to a specific number. See rule 613, “Interaction of Continuous Effects.”
Reading comprehension, seriously. Ever single instance of base P/T in the comp rules refers to effects that set a creature's base P/T. It's not just what's printed on the card.
>302.4c To determine a creature’s power and toughness, start with the numbers printed in its lower right corner, then apply any applicable continuous effects. (See rule 613, “Interaction of Continuous Effects.”)
And not a mention of base P/T in the above rule. But let's look at another instance of base P/T.
>613. Interaction of Continuous Effects
>613.1. The values of an object’s characteristics are determined by starting with the actual object. For a card, that means the values of the characteristics printed on that card. For a token or a copy of a spell or card, that means the values of the characteristics defined by the effect that created it. Then all applicable continuous effects are applied in a series of layers in the following order:
>[...]
>613.1g Layer 7: Power- and/or toughness-changing effects are applied.
>[...]
>613.3b Layer 7b: Effects that set power and/or toughness to a specific number or value are applied. Effects that refer to the base power and/or toughness of a creature apply in this layer.
Again, modification.

>>51460929
Again, none of that says that base P/T cannot be read. If a quantity is writable, it should logically be readable unless explicitly specified.

>>51460811
>>51460929
Also it was a templating change not a rules one. Nothing changed mechanically when it was added.

>>51460958
Even if we say base P/T can be read, since it's only restricted to P/T defining abilities, its use would only apply after those abilities, so it would be incredibly narrow anyway. If we go back to the RG card and the way its worded, that means it would take the greatest P/T out of all creatures that have their P/T defined by an ability, not just what their P/T is on their card. It would be so incredibly narrow as to be almost pointless.

>>51459389
Too efficient as a defender. I'd give it the red "attacks each turn if able" drawback.

Powerhaus. Has the ability to "convert emotional energy into raw power" whatever the fuck that means, so I just made it a spell-pump ability.

The primary purpose of a keyword is not to is not to make complex things into single words (and then have to have a paragragh of reminder text behind the keyword), but to make a common mechanic to be more clear to the player by giving that mechanic a special name.
It's why they started using hexproof instead of how it was printed on slipper boogle. Same for Reach.

Might be cool as a hybrid W/B with two activated abilities, cost XWW and the other cost XBB.
Anyway, this is fine as is. Elegant.

>>51461851
That's pretty mighty. I won't immediately say it's too good but the amount of cards it could eat up to be dealt with is impressive.
Then again blue and white's form of removal is usually auras good against it.
It's a cool idea, for sure.

It started out as resources but yeah ended up shifting to tokens. I kind of want to do land tokens some how but that would feel really janky.
>Guardian could be 1WG
eh maybe but I'd rather keep the devotion high sense it's both a card engine and a token well.

>Sentinel
Clever design. Seems fair, though kind of annoying in draft if you don't get your own bigger drop to play.

You can't have two different X abilities like this, they gave to be mutually exclusive. Like the Decree that you can cast to make X Angels or Cycle to make X Soldiers. But thanks a bunch for your feedback.

He's actually working on a second set to make a block for it. He's just been busy due to real-life stuff. He became a teacher recently, IIRC.

>>51462014

Oh how rude, I should give you feedback. Well, I like the ability, but it seems like it could be abused. Maybe activate once each turn? Could just be me though.

Looks cool, reminds me of the card I made for Artemis, which is making me think about letting her hit creatures. That said, the use of FStrike is kinda confusing, since it doesn't really interact with the Equipment-Fling ability. Vigilance maybe?
