I think that while this request might seem reasonable on its face, it's actually like asking for a list that says "which abilities are appealing to Timmies?" Could a person write up such a list? Given enough time, probably. Would there be differences of opinion on that list? Definitely. Ex...

Do you have any advice for how to stay enthused all the way through making a custom set? I can't be the only one who has started a project while the ideas feel fun and exciting, designed the mechanics and some splashy rares or signpost uncommons, and then kinda sputtered out as the full scope of des...

1. Mystical is overdoing it, instead, I'd just allow Lesson on non-spells, end of changes. If that is not a minor change, I don't know what is. 2. If we can't make cards that require CR changes, are new mechanics entirely banned in MCC? I don't like where this is heading. 1. I guess we're just goin...

This one also doesn't come up to often, but I would add: 4. Sometimes there are CCL months where what you submit in later rounds is dependent on your first round card, which would be more complicated if rounds 1 and 2 went up simultaneously (although admittedly not impossible, since those months alw...

Yanggu, Trusting Traveler 2GW Legendary Planeswalker — Yanggu (M) When Yanggu, Trusting Traveler enters the battlefield, create Brave Mowu, a legendary 3/3 green Dog creature token with "When this creature dies, transform each Yanggu you control." 0: Target creature you control explores. ...

In general you should ask by DM to avoid rubbing people the wrong way. If it's about me (I say only because I'm matched up against you in the December MCC R3), then you should feel free to ask here and I promise I won't be offended. But yes, you should generally wait until after the judging is compl...

This is very strong: it starts as a 4-mana 4/4 which draws two cards a turn later, and then transforms into a decently strong (although not busted) planeswalker. If the creature gets destroyed then you might have to discard a card but you still get the draw and the 'walker, if the enchantment gets ...

Ara, Blind Eternities Seer 1UR Legendary Creature — Wizard (R) Flying, haste As long as its your turn, triggered abilities of Planes trigger an additional time. Whenever Ara, Blind Eternities Seer attacks, you may roll the planar die. 2/2 (I'm assuming this fits the category of "current plane ...

Couldn't keep up with the everyday pace of this competition for a full 9 months, but really enjoyed the time that I did participate!

Destroy all creatures.
Discover 5. If you cast a creature spell this way, it gains haste until end of turn.
"This discovery is too important to wait for an evacuation. Start the detonation."
—Bartolomé del Presidio, director of the Queen's Bay Company

I could use a 24-hour extension if that's okay. Lost track of this with the holidays.

Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell, create a tapped Treasure token. Then if you control ten...

I don't know if it really matters, but just a heads up that the pairings are not typically assigned until after the cards are submitted. Per the guidelines: "As the design deadline comes, the host divides the players into 1‐vs‐1 pairs." Again, it's not a major issue, but thought I'd let yo...

Electric Inspiration 1R Sorcery (U) Exile the top two cards of your library. Until the end of your next turn, you may play those cards.

Devoid (This card has no color.)
Flying

Hovering silently, it somehow senses the scent of Kozilek's distortions.

I think the intent here was for those creatures to get the bonus, but that's not what happens. Just for the record, that definitely was not the intent. For one thing, it wouldn't matter much whether the creatures get the bonus unless they have haste, and for another thing I thought it was fairly cl...
