Today's Challenge:
Mill

.::To Enter::.
In a single post:
  • Name exactly two other players to vote for their entries for the previous challenge. (In the event that there are two or fewer entries that you are allowed to vote for, you may vote for only one.)
  • Make a card that fits the current challenge.
  • Include an "If I Win" (IIW) for tomorrow's challenge if you win.

JJ: This is actually a custom card I printed out and playtested with IRL out of curiosity. I will have to agree with you on power level after testing, but not for the reasons you might think: it was actually extremely hard to combo out the 9 counters for the alternate win condition, but getting to 3 counters for the extra body was too *easy*. It essentially ended up being too good... of a midrange creature.

Broken Promise UU
Instant (R)
Counter target spell unless its controller pays 3. If that player could've paid but didn't, gain control of that spell instead of countering it. ("Could've paid but didn't" doesn't account for hidden mana abilities, like the mana abilities of cards in that player's hand or face down on the battlefield.)
Is it really betrayal when they change their minds before recruitment is even finished?

Enchantment (U)
At the beginning of each player's combat phase, that player chooses a creature they control that can attack. Until end of turn, that creatures attacks if able and has "When this creature dies, it's controller discards a card and loses 2 life."
'I'll make it back alive' is a cruel promise.
