Re: January MCC Round 4 - Escape attempt (JUDGING)
Design (2/3) Appeal : This is primarily a card for J, though S might be willing to implement it in a Simic shell. It isn't splashy enough for T. (2.5/3) Elegance : Long-winded but straightforward. Development (3/3) Viability : Much like Oko, neutering multiple creatures is very Simic and Mythic. (2...

Re: January MCC Round 2 - Divine discovery
Judgments complete. Design (2.5/3) Appeal : J and S like the potential here, but T can't be lured away from Big Green to Lackluster White.

Questionably racist, not blatant as IP. I still wonder who approved that art, though it does fit the card name.

The challenge is Mono White. MtG has had some questionably racist cards printed in White, so I decided to riff on that. Also, it's been three days - we're into troll time.

This might be the card that gets Nissa banned from Standard. Turn 3 Nissa, playing this on Turn 4, plus Nissa to untap a Forest and add GGGGGG , use four to cast The Great Henge , and being able to add another GGGGGG ?

Further proof that Burn can't have nice things. How does this spell make sense in a Standard where there are currently fourteen (legal) 3-drop PWs that can activate and be at 4 loyalty or more? Magma Jet was recently downshifted to Common, but this needs to be Uncommon? Even for Limited, the return ...

So, Mistform Ultimus is an Elder Dragon, Elder Demon, Elder Dinosaur, and now also an Elder Giant. It might need a Rascal to get around soon.
Pelt Collector and Yorvo aren't going to mind getting two counters off Uro coming and going, either.

Re: I need a Golgari-compliant discard outlet...
Another consideration is Geier Reach Sanitarium, though it does allow your opponent to loot as well. Since you're already Trolling, you could run Cryptbreaker, which lets you fill the yard while also gaining blockers.
