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.)

Love to Hate
Legendary Instant - (Mythic Rare)
You may cast Love to Hate from your hand without paying its mana cost if each of your opponents control a permanent of each permanent type and you have one or less life.
Search your library for any number of creature cards. You may reveal those cards. If you do, create an X/X nightmare creature token with haste, trample, and hexproof, where X is the combined power of those creatures. Then exile those creatures. Exile Love to Hate.

Flatline - The flavor text in particular speaks a lot to me, but I can't really picture a name like this being on a real card.

Sagharri - Not sure it works, but a really nice idea.

RattingRots - Nice idea, but as it is you have to have both targets just in order to cast it. I would make it a modal spell:
Choose one —
• Counter target instant or sorcery spell.
• Counter target activated ability.
void_nothing - Why is that not a snow artifact itself?
I can finally post the card that I had planned to post two days ago! A variation on Courtly Provocateur.

Gruul Provocateur 1{R/G}{R/G}
Creature — Human Warrior (U)
R, T: Target creature attacks this turn if able.
G, T: Target creature blocks this turn if able.
"You say you stronger than Gruul warrior? Show me!"

Mizzium Mine 1R
Enchantment - Aura (C)
Enchant player
When enchanted player casts an instant or sorcery spell, sacrifice Mizzium Mine and it deals 5 damage to them.
Some devices should be as safe as possible, but for some, the more dangerous to handle the better.

Cogwork Thief 3
Artifact Creature - Construct (U)
Reveal Cogwork Thief as you draft it. When you draft your next card, you may exchange it for the last card drafted by any other player.

Sagharri and Flatline - Striking how similar your cards are. I think I personally like Sagharri's version slightly more, but Flatline's design is also pretty good.

Sorry, I hadn't noticed that. Not being a snow artifact itself was the only problem I had with your card.
Loneliness 3BBB
Enchantment (M)
As long as you control exactly one creature, that creature has protection from everything, you have hexproof, and your life total can't change.

A top-down design, meant to go in a "loner" archetype like black in ROE. I considered making it white or white-black, but I felt like the concept wanted to be monoblack. I still think it's just a bend and not a break in black.
