Need Help With Mana Cost

I have two main questions about the following card: Legendary Creature (R) You can't cast creature spells. Whenever another creature enters the battlefield under your control, draw a card. My first question is: What colors should this card be? My first thought is monowhite. I know the card draw abil...

Companion Design Space

Keruga, the Macrosage and friends all have deck-building requirements. I wonder, however, if Companion can be expanded beyond deck-building conditions. For example, I wonder if a card like this is possible: White Companion 1WW Creature - Bird (U) 2/2 Companion -- You weren't the starting player. ~ ...

Re: [C20] Arcane Signet reprint and themes

Ugh. What will it take for us to actually get new partner legends? What's the point of being able to have two commanders if you can't choose which ones to pair up? I had one moment of excitement when I saw partner, followed immediately by pure frustration when I saw they were "partner with"...

Re: Colored Artifact Set

Update: I've done some work on refining the mechanics and flavor of the set and have some things to add. First, Boost is now React, an ability word with this format: " React - Whenever you activate an ability of a nonland permanent you control..." I feel like the functionality fits the wor...

Re: First Official Theros Spoilers: Ashiok, Elspeth and Buy a Box Promo

Re: Colored Artifact Set

I'm thinking of turning Boost into an ability word so the strength of the effect can vary according to cost and rarity. And yeah, I'm already starting to shift around the archetypes. I agree that some of them aren't optimal in their current state. As for flavor, I like the junkyard world idea. I'll ...

Colored Artifact Set

no-name.jpg Very simple premise: It's an artifact set like the Mirrodin sets or Kaladesh, except that there are no colorless artifacts. Before we get into the details, I want to make it clear that this set is neither a Mirrodin set nor a Kaladesh set. Both worlds come with baggage that I don't want...

Re: Commander legends speculation

I'm interested to see what the rules of the format are, because that's gonna give us an idea of what kind of mechanics we might see. For example, if the color identity rule is still in place, I could see partner coming back and appearing on a large percentage of monocolored and dualcolored commander...

Re: Set Proposal in 4 Cards

You keep saying mimic is a drawback mechanic. How? I should clarify that your example card can't directly harm you because it specifically says "you don't control," which is fine. But Mimic also does nothing to directly help you. It gives your opponents and teammates equal opportunity to ...

Re: Set Proposal in 4 Cards

Goldify is interesting. I agree with the above that it could be reworded (and maybe renamed, I like "Gild"), possibly as an ability word: " Gild — You may pay 3RG rather than pay ~'s mana cost. If you do..." I'm not sure how practical it will be though. I think most of the time, ...

Recruit - Universal Faction Mechanic

I wanted to try a different spin on a faction set (with factions based on color combos). For context, lets assume this is Ravnica set. Rather than give each guild their own mechanic, which often results in simplified and sometimes unbalanced mechanics, I wanted to experiment with a set mechanic that...

Pushed Interaction for Gold Set

Pretext: These cards are designed for a set with high power level and efficient threats. There would also be a certain number of safety valve cards, like Duress thrown in to help keep oppressive countermagic and removal in check. ~ deals 3 damage to any target. Add one mana of any color.

Re: Multiple New Commander products including draftable commander

Having part of the title in Beleren font and part more stylistically unique mean...

Re: [ELD] New Planeswalker OKO

Isn't Garruk in the set also? Also, since Will and Rowan are looking for their father who is a king they might both have white. Color combinations could be: Rowan: R W Will: U W Garruk: B G That means that for both color balance and story wise, Oko could be any color combination that doesn't includ...

Re: [ELD] New Planeswalker OKO

I think I'm in the Sultai camp on this guy. Temur would make sense too though. I am a bit bothered by the artwork though. Colors aside, why are there magic-y, thorny vines? He's a shapeshifter, isn't he? What about shapeshifting magic involves glowing ghostly vines coming out of your fingers? I know...

BG Removal Spell

Mostly posting just to get a feel for the new site. Choose one― Target player reveals their hand. You choose a nonland card from it. That player discards that card. Destroy target nonland permanent.
