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.)

Target player puts the top four cards of their library into their graveyard, then they choose a creature card and a noncreature card in their graveyard. That player returns the chosen cards to their hand.
To most planeswalkers, the memory of the moment when their spark ignited is rarely an easy burden to carry.

At the beginning of each upkeep, you may pay 2. If you do, scry 2, then reveal the top card of your library. If that card is a creature card, until end of turn, Transformist Dragon's base power and toughness become those of the revealed card, and Transformist Dragon gains all the creature types and activated abilities of the revealed card.

Votes: RattingRots, wizyard (might need clarification on if it's the first spell you've cast this turn, but I like the idea)

Well, three days in and I've got two votes. Off to a roaring start. (Now only if I could be listed in the standings.)

Creature - Beast U

As Magmatic Behemoth enters the battlefield, you may sacrifice any number of lands. Magmatic Behemoth enters the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it for each land sacrificed this way.

Flatline - love the concept, but just seems too punishing for an uncommon. If you do it for full value, it's a pretty brutal 3-for-1, and it's not bad even as a 4-drop. Also, black wolves aren't really a thing, although the big bad wolf certainly could be an exception.
Summons of the Damned 4BG

Put any number of permanent cards from your hand onto the battlefield.

Planeswalker (M)
+1: Put a +1/+1 counter on each creature token you control.
-3: Exile target creature for as long as you control a planeswalker or creature token.

Lead From the Underworld XWW
Sorcery - Adventure (M)

So the -3 on this card creates memory issues. My idea to alleviate them in paper magic would be to have a helper card for this that has the "On an Adventure" helper on one side, and a helper on the other side saying "Banished by Elspeth". When you use the -3 on anything, you would put the exiled card on the "Banished by Elspeth" helper. Once you have no planeswalkers or tokens, you put the "Banished by Elspeth" helper away and put the exiled cards back on the battlefield.
