Still waiting for @mellifluoresce; I've been in contact already. As I said earlier, I'm prioritizing fun and participation over deadlines, but I am hoping to get entries very soon!

[Megiddo]

Poll is now up! @void_nothing, @NinjaCaterpie, @lookingupanddown, @Togs, @Stapler, @Cythare, @mellifluoresce, and @dyd: Please try to vote in every matchup!

Polls are open to anybody who see them. We'll run it for a few days. Good luck everybody!

[void_nothing]

There's a frankly... troubling number of votes for the blank options, so I would say if you voted, make sure it's not you who did it.

[Megiddo]

I voted for the **s because I'm impartial unless ties occur and I want to track the votes.

But somebody else did vote **... Double check your votes if you see this! You are able to change them

[Megiddo]

We sniffed out the other *** voter and got the votes changed (the single vote for the final *** is me).

There's one race that's separated by only one vote! Still time to get yours in. I'll close it out sometime tomorrow.

Edit: now it's tied. SOmebody else vote!

[Megiddo]

Ok folks! I think that's about enough time. There is a tie, but we have enough votes (and the other matches are clean enough) that I think I can exercise my responsibility as Factory Head to break ties.

Before that... My choices for Top Entry and Top Card.

Top Entry

Show

Hide

Stapler has the Top Entry for round 2!
Making three planeswalkers is always difficult. Stapler did three cool things with his: A unique alternative to loyalty costs, a mirror darkly to a classic character's abilities, and a clean sneak attack-style package that riffs on Sarkhan the Mad. Overall solid cards and elevated because of the card type restriction.

Top Card

Show

dyd has the Top Card for round 2!
Haruspication really grabbed me this round. It's simple, powerful, and very flavorful. If you couldn't tell from my picks last round, I greatly value cards like this in custom card contests where the temptation can be to overcomplicate designs.

By virtue of winning Top Card, I am using my Factory Head tiebreaking powers to award dyd the win in that matchup. Unlike last round, it wasn't completely meaningless.
