I'll keep it short and sweet.

Adversary is a custom MTG format based around custom Vanguard-esque cards, like pic related.
>150+ custom Adversaries across three modular sets.
>Pitch your own Adversary ideas and add to that number.
>Active if slightly small community.
>Experimental League utilizing Adversary cards and unique weekly rewards.

All of the rules, cards and players now congregate in this Discord server, which you should be able to access in your browser without creating an account.

I'm just bumping with Adversary cards to keep the Discord link visible for longer. That's the main purpose of the thread.
>>
Looks neat. Will check it out sometime later.
>>
>>50486853
at first glance this one is obscenely broken cause your allowed to play ad nauseam with it according to the banlist
>>
>>50489169
Interesting. Nice catch.

Broken, burn autoloses
>>50485701
Very nice
>>50485728
LegendaryToolbox.dec will break the format
>>50485865
Exalted.dec? No untap before the next combat limits it's usefulness
>>50486853
Allows some very interesting black-focused decks
>>50487498
Literally broken, causes an infinite loop with itself

It's interesting but holy shit get some help with the card design
>>
>>50489169
Ah, right you are. Easy fix, thanks.

>>50489429
Renais does have an issue with invalidating some decks, we've been discussing that recently and may change him soon.

I use LegendaryToolbox.dec with Virgel and still get stomped more often than not. It may look more powerful than it actually is, or I'm just bad at MTG.

Velan doesn't cause an infinite loop with itself. Read the effect a bit more closely. You would need something like Sanguine Bond to make it infinite, which is banned for Velan to avoid that problem.

The rest, fair enough.

Velan mirror-match, retard.
>>
after going though the adversary cards on the imgur:
>velan is too good to be a 2
>urndal is far too restrictive to be a 2, maybe put him down a peg or buff him, only truly interesting interactions are plunge into darkness and spoils of the vault
>jim has naming issues
thats all just at a glance
>>
>>50489663
Oh, right. I thought you meant the card itself contains an infinite loop. Mirror matches are a known issue, yes, we usually just avoid them.

>>50489664
The imgur is out of date at this point, sorry about that.
As you can see from the version of Velan posted above, she's a level 3 now. Urndal has been removed entirely, and Jim... Er... I think his name was changed? I can't actually remember.
>>
>>50489708
huh your right it has been changed, any link to the new adversary list then?
>>
>>50489799
Not in any easily previewable format, unfortunately; if you actually download the Adversary set(s) then you'll have a folder full of all the cards, but that involves... You know, downloading the sets.

I think I'll upload a new imgur album shortly.

Google-fu too weak

RULE FIVE: Do not build your deck specifically to exploit infinite combos. The punishment for breaking this rule is simply making everyone stop playing with you, because it can get annoying.

Alright, last bump before I go to bed, so feel free to let the thread die now. We got a good 4-6 new players, so good turnout.
>>
I like this. This seems neat.

There's something (technically, pedantically) wrong on almost every card. The Adversaries that are literally just existing cards are typically fine, but then you also mess up on fairly basic wording.
>>50485569
You don't take damage, damage is dealt to you.
>>50485589
Magic prefers the contracted "can't gain life." Also, I'm not sure life loss can technically be prevented like this.
>>50485701
Devour isn't a keyword action so this also doesn't work. Also, this is a replacement effect, so it should start with "if" and not "whenever." And Devouring takes place before the creature actually enters the battlefield, so its not there to have counters moved to it.
>>50485865
Magic prefers the contracted "doesn't untap..."
>>50486853
Would prefer "The first time you would lose the game this game, instead..."
>>50490108
Technically costs can't target, even if we handwave femaleness.

The /ccg/fag in me is roiling.
>>
Half of these are completely fucking broken.

Dummy, the artist name is there for a reason.

>>50494353
That's exactly why we stopped having these threads.
>>
>>50490520
If that shit is really in the rules, then you literally are guaranteeing that your playgroup is going to be VERY small and very exclusive.
>>
>>50493165
>And Devouring takes place before the creature actually enters the battlefield, so its not there to have counters moved to it.

How about "When a creature with devour enters the battlefield under your control, put a +1/+1 counter on it for each +1/+1 counter on creatures it devoured." ?
>>
>>50494930
It's on there fucking rulesite lol.
>>
>>50489429
Velan, Cursed Empress does not loop with itself.

RTFC
>>
>>50493165
The vast majority of these designs are crowdsourced and not all of them get fixed, not everything gets caught. Thanks for the feedback, though.

>>50494353
Yup.

>>50494930
Blame Hawk. I didn't make the rules, just put them up. I've maintained from the beginning that the combo """"rule"""" is a meme.
>>
>>50497305
It does, in a mirror match.
