Welcome to the DCC!
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post in the DCC Discussion Thread.



How To Play



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.



Rules



  • 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 easy way to post the new thread is to hit the multiquote button on every post in the previous day's thread, then click Post Reply. Select everything in this post, copy it, and then paste it into the first post for a new thread. You'll have to clean up a few small things, like quote tags around the opening post and the previous day's cards.)

This is the last day to submit cards for September.

Guardian of the Heart

If an opponent would gain life, that player loses that much life instead.

Yes, this is true. Today is my 36th birthday. That inspired me to do a darker riff on Planewide Celebration.

Choose four. You may choose the same mode more than once.
• Create a 2/2 white Cat creature token.
• Return target creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield.
• Populate.
• Target opponent loses 2 life and you gain 2 life.
Everybody around him was celebrating his birthday, but the leonin knew that it was really nothing more than just one more tick of the clock of his life, actually making it get closer to its end.

You may put a card from your hand on top of your library rather than pay Caress of Mlaole's mana cost.
Target creature gets -2/-2 until end of turn.
"That sound is a young voice. It's a powerful voice, certainly, enough to drive anyone listening mad, or to even kill, but it's entirely uncertain and chaotic. There are no words in it, just the babbling of a child."

If Miraculous Visitor is the first card you draw on your first turn, you may reveal it and exile it from your hand with a luck counter on it.
At the beginning of your upkeep, if Miraculous Visitor is in exile with a luck counter on it, draw a card and gain 1 life.

Some interesting cards today, void_nothing's card needs some wording work to make it less confusing, but I think I get what it's supposed to do.

Circle of Protection: Dragons 2W
Enchantment (Rare)
1W: The next time a Dragon, Drake, or Wurm creature would deal damage to you this turn, prevent that damage.

Thoughts 2: The New Batch
Show

The original circles where a bit on the strong side as they could shut down a deck completely, but the idea is interesting, so a more specialized approach has been attempted. Even if you don't vote for it, I'd still like comments, critiques, and constructive criticism on the card.

The card works totally fine as is, but personally I would change it to:

Parting Shot deals 2 damage to target blocking or blocked creature you don't control.
Return target blocking or blocked creature you control to it's owner's hand.

I think there are going to be some times where it gets a bit clunky to use, and neither effect is dangerously powerful at the current cost if it became a bit more flexible.
Similar Vein U
Instant (R)
Name a card. Until end of turn, activated abilities of cards with the chosen name can't be activated.

I'm willingly choosing to ignore the name changing in the rules text as you've acknowledged the mistake yourself and I also just love the flavor of the card.
Also, thank you very much for your wishes!

Sagharri - I personally would expand Dryad Arbor into a real cycle right now without a second thought, but we all know the rules nightmares behind it.
RattingRots - I'd make it a white card actually.
Frost Giant 4U
Creature — Elemental Giant (U)
Evoke 1U (You may cast this spell for its evoke cost. If you do, it's sacrificed when it enters the battlefield.)
When Frost Giant enters the battlefield, tap another target creature. That creature doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step.
Unearth 5U (5U: Return this card from your graveyard to the battlefield. It gains haste. Exile it at the beginning of the end step or if it would leave the battlefield. Unearth only as a sorcery.)

Whenever you draw a card, you may reveal it. If you do, spells with the same name as the revealed card cost X less to cast this turn, where X is the number of cards you've drawn this turn.

Yeah, I thought about a couple ways to do it. I went with the one I did because it is the most flavorful and also because it allows for the creature's abilities (lifelink and deathtouch being the relevant ones) to come into play. Also it allows for some real blowouts of multi-blocks. But could definitely see that other wordings would be more flexible.
