Here's some articles on Four Horsemen and why it's unplayable: Let's talk about Four Horsemen — Ask a Magic Judge . Written by Charlotte Sable , a level 3 judge. Deck Tech: Four Horsemen with Jeff Liu — Star City Games Written by Glenn Jones, a WotC R&D employee. Horsemyths — Policy Perpsectives...

Templating nitpicks in case you're intersted. These put aside existing feedback to just work with your originals. Sanzang: Whenever Sanzang, Seeker of Scriptures attacks, exile target card from your graveyard. Its leaves ability can say "exiled by it". Marshal Zhu: Last sentence needs to s...

I think the cmc gimmik is so neat that I would prefer to nerf the cards at this point. For example, if you think that Greed does too much suggest me a nice way in UR to represent well that concept, that would be appreciated. [...] And how about changing the effects [of Wrath and Envy]? Would you pr...

On Greed sac outlets: There are lots of effects that just let you sacrifice a creature . Standard has rarely been without having several options at a time: here's all the cards from standard-legal sets including reprints (or only the most recent prints ). A third color is not a big ask if it means I...

Man, I'm wavering a lot on Appeal to a Higher Power as well. If we look at other white effects that create angels we can make these comparisons: Decree of Justice gives me three angels at X=3 for {10}WW . Entreat the Angels gives me three angels at X=3 for 6WWW (or 3W at Miracle, but that's hard to ...

Great job. I really like their effects and I really really like Wukong. I want to use him and Pilgrim of the Sands. Scriptures of the West I suggest making Scriptures of the West red ( 3R ) or red-white ( 2RW or 2{r/w}{r/w} ). Only the early trigger doublers have been colorless while more recent one...

Stick to this general principle: If a deck is already randomized and we don't know anything about the order of any card in it, any additional shuffling is unnecessary. We'd call a judge and likely we'd handle it by skipping the shuffle but pretending it happens for anything that cares. If there's no...

The Temple of the Travelers towers over Raythar , both physically and metaphorically. The inhabitants of this plane lead a hard existence, laboring ceaselessly to produce the crops, ore, and thauma that the Travelers demand. A young woman, claiming to know the secrets of the Travelers, wants to end ...

Power Overwhelming RGG Enchantment — Aura (Mythic Rare) Enchant creature If a spell or ability would increase the power or toughness of enchanted creature, it increases that creature's power or toughness by twice that much instead. (Gatherer rulings would include this one: +1/+1 counters remain una...

Anointed Lich 3UB
Creature — Zombie Cleric
4/4
Skeletons, Vampires, and Zombies you control have hexproof.
B, T, Pay 2 life: Create a 2/2 black Zombie creature token.

That is cute and I love the joke in its colors. It's probably playable. See cards that search for other copies of themselves : they're usually 2-3 CMC creatures with 1-2 power and toughness that put the rest of their own copies into your hand to cast later. This is a higher rate than that: 3CMC and ...

Can anyone with a more in-depth rules knowledge speak to the implications of casting a permanent card as a sorcery from the battlefield? My intuition is that it would only work if the permanent ceases to be a permanent on the battlefield and becomes a sorcery on the stack, treated as if it had just...

My first thought was it's a sort of level up that unlocks the right page. If that's true though I can't figure out what the darker green bar is for: it doesn't seem big enough for reminder text. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D_9pUjfXUAEcH8e.png:large I like the idea that it's a spell you can cast, but...

On the mechanic itself — Ordained seems cool, but I feel it would be more flavorful and more mechanically effective if it only cared about Auras and Equipment. On a flavor side they are quite special things to give to a creature that certainly feel "ordaining" it. Mechanically, auras and e...

I think TurkeySloth has something there at least going by current color pie standards. I think it makes a lot of sense to make Elven Revilifier white-green rather than mono-green. The case of it not quite fitting in color pie: Mechanical Color Pie 2017 lists "Cast spells out of graveyard" ...

Nyx-Touched Bear 1G
Enchantment Creature — Bear
2/2
Trample
Bestow 2G (If you cast this card for its bestow cost, it's an Aura spell with enchant creature. It becomes a creature again if it's not attached to a creature.)
Enchanted creature gets +2/+2 and has trample.

I don't think this card is playable in its current form. Cards that cost 10 mana should be giving me an overwhelming advantage that help me start to close out the game, see others for a power level reference . Unlike most CMC ~10 cards, this doesn't actually do anything to give me an advantage the t...

Assassin's Needle 2
Artifact — Equipment
Whenever equipped creature blocks or becomes blocked, it deals 1 damage to target creature blocking it or blocked by it.
Equip 3
Equip assassin or ninja 1

Karn's Deflection cu
Instant (R)
Artifacts you control gain indestructible and hexproof until end of turn.

Next: GGGG

Blast Wave 9B
Sorcery
Convoke (Your creatures can help cast this spell. Each creature you tap while casting this spell pays for 1 or one mana of the creature’s color.)
Destroy all untapped creatures. Creatures you control don't untap during your next untap step. Exile Blast Wave.

Next: BGG

With the synergy being via Soulshift:

Wayfaring Skeleton 2B
Creature — Skeleton Scout (Uncommon)
2/2
Whenever another creature card is put into your hand from your graveyard, if Wayfaring Skeleton is in your graveyard, return Wayfaring Skeleton to your hand.
Death is just another source of intel.

Magic has five special “iconic” creature types, one for each color: Angel (white), Sphinx (blue), Demon (black), Dragon (red), and Hydra (green). Wizards tries to fit a card for each of them into each set as a splashy rare. Sometimes there's more than one, but there's at least one. Your challenge is...
