Welcome to the DCC!
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post in the DCC Discussion Thread.
How does this card-making game work? It's simple! Whenever your card receives a vote, you receive [1] point for the month. If your card ends up with the most votes for that day, you will receive [2] additional points for the month. In the event of a tie, each person who tied receives [1] additional point. At the end of each month, the person with the most points on the scoreboard wins that month, then the scoreboard is cleared for the next month. You can participate in as many or as few days as you want in any month.
- Each day you may post any card you want. On the next day all of the posted cards will be put into the thread as long as your card didn't get disqualified - see the next point for more details. If you post more than one card in a DCC thread, only the first card you post will be taken.
- When you vote, you need to make exactly two votes for two different people. Vote for the cards that are listed in the first post, not other cards being posted in the thread. If you notice that you've only voted for one person, include your second vote in a post, even if you're not submitting a card.
- If you want to change your vote for any reason, post that change in the day's thread (you can include it with your card if you want). Changed votes in the discussion thread will be ignored.
- Voting for only one person, for three or more people, or for yourself will earn you an asterisk by your name in the monthly leaderboard. So will failing to vote if you've posted a card. (We're not going to do anything about people who don't vote or post cards; that would be kind of silly.) This indicates that you're on probation for the next 21 days. If you're on probation and you make another improper vote, your card will be disqualified. Repeated disqualification is grounds for warnings and/or infractions for not following the game rules, so please don't do it.
- Voting for everything in the poll will be grounds for a lifetime ban from the DCC. Don't do it. It just wastes the thread creators' time.
- If you wish to post a render, please use the hyperlink option when posting your card and make the card name the image link. Renders are usually large enough to clog up the list, so submit a text-formed card and (optionally) a link in the name to the render.
- This thread is just for your card submission. Take your questions/comments to our discussion thread. If it's a question, comment, or complaint about probation, PM void_nothing and/or the month's DCC organizer.
- When posting make sure that:
- You have included all of the previous day's entries.
- You update the leaderboard with the previous day's scores.
An exhausting weekend.

• shukkets: even though I do understand why they don't use it anymore, I have never had big problems with the Tribal card type personally.
Honorable mentions
• Sagharri: "You may have Clone etb..."? I guess it's a typo, like the lack of the article "a" before "-1/-1 counter". I really like the idea though, it's one of those cards that makes me go like: "Wait, this doesn't exist yet? Seriously?"
• Other honorable mentions: netn10, void_nothing.
Instant (C)
Destroy target creature.
Investigate. (Create a colorless Clue artifact token with " , Sacrifice this artifact: Draw a card.")
"Alright, my employer has been satisfied. Now let's see what this one had with themselves..."

The upcoming return to Theros got me thinking about what a Roman-inspired set would look like, so the next few days worth of cards all spring from that:
Wary Centurion
Creature – Ainok Soldier (U)
Legion – Whenever Wary Centurion attacks with at least one other Soldier, untap all attacking Soldiers. They get +1/+1 until end of turn.

Vainglorious BastardNotesShowHideTough one today. So many good cards.
Ink-Treader: I think I understand what the card does, if a player has less cards in their library than the difference between their starting life-total and their current life total they lose the game, if their current life total is less than their starting life total, right?. But damn if it isn't hard to grok at a first look at the card. I still like the card a lot, it's very interesting, reasonably costed, and entirely in color.
Anyway, on to today's entry
Creature - Human Noble (Rare)
First strike
Whenever you cast a spell, you may pay . If you do, each opponent loses 1 life, and you gain life equal to the life lost.
2/1
Notes on the cardShowHideIt is the classical meaning of the word "Bastard". A noble person born out of wedlock.

Xodhreh's QuerierComments/RepliesShowHide
- To bravelion83: I was originally going to add some flavor text to the card, but my attention was occupied elsewhere. The idea was essentially that of wood elves/high elves, with high elves living in the Emerald Fields and wood elves being the more traditional type of elves. To define them more than that, though, you would need a little backstory. First one that comes to mind is that a long time ago all of the elves were united in trying to preserve nature. Some sought to become conservationist and others sought to spread their message. These two factions eventually grew apart, with the conservationists becoming the woods elves and the message-spreaders becoming the high elves, who are now more concerned with inter-nation politics.
- Ink-Treader: You could have worded it as "Whenever a player's life total plus the number of cards in their library is less than or equal to their starting life total, they lose the game," which might make it easier to grok upon initial reading.
- shukkets: Reminds me of Ghitu Firebreathing. Also, I wish WotC would do more with Tribal. There is a lot of stuff to explore in it.
Creature - Eldrazi Drone U
Kicker
If Xodhreh's Querier was kicked, it enters the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it.
: Tap target permanent. If Xodhreh's Querier has a +1/+1 counter on it, that permanent doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step.
Xodhreh seeks to understand the world before it, as any other child would.

Sequestered ExistenceReplyShowHideRithaniel: That's definitely better wording. I appreciate it.
Enchantment - Aura (R)
Enchant player
Enchanted player and permanents they control have protection from enchanted player. This effect doesn't remove Sequestered Existence.
What good is it to have a thing if you can't hold it?

Improvised Weapon
Artifact - Equipment (U)
Equipped creature gets +2/+1.
Whenever an artifact is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, you may return Improvised Weapon from your graveyard to your hand.

Creature - Skeleton Knight (R)
Whenever a nontoken creature dies, create a 1/1 black Skeleton Knight creature token with first strike.
: Target creature gets your choice of +2/+1 or +1/+2 until end of turn. That creature gains lifelink until end of turn if it's a Skeleton. Untap that creature if it's a Knight.
