Today's Challenge:
Sea monsters

.::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.
Each day we use the challenge of the previous day's winner. In the case of a tie, we'll use the IIW of the tied player who has least overall points. In case of a further tie, the IIW of the earlier poster will be used.

Grafdigger's Storehouse 1gw
Artifact
Equipped Humans you control get +1/+2.
When ~ enters the battlefield, for each Human you control, create a Shovel token and attach it to that Human. (It's an Equipment artifact named Shovel with "Equip 1" and "Equipped creature has 't: Put target card from a graveyard on the bottom of its owner's library'.")

And my assumption is that predefined tokens are the likes of Food, Clues, and Treasure.
Yes, exactly that. From the CR:
CR (KHM)
Show

111.10. Some effects instruct a player to create a predefined token. These effects use the definition below to determine the characteristics the token is created with. The effect that creates a predefined token may also modify or add to the predefined characteristics.
111.10a A Treasure token is a colorless Treasure artifact token with "{T}, Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color."
111.10b A Food token is a colorless Food artifact token with "{2}, {T}, Sacrifice this artifact: You gain 3 life."
111.10c A Gold token is a colorless Gold artifact token with "Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color."
111.10d A Walker token is a 2/2 black Zombie creature token named Walker.
111.10e A Shard token is a colorless enchantment token with "{2}, Sacrifice this enchantment: Scry 1, then draw a card."

Clues are in the rules for investigate, even though they're not technically a predefined token as they're not listed above.

701.36. Investigate
701.36a "Investigate" means "Create a colorless Clue artifact token with '{2}, Sacrifice this artifact: Draw a card.'"

Note the different wording. If Clues were also predefined it would say "Create a Clue token. (It's an artifact with "{2}, Sacrifice this artifact: Draw a card.")"

Sorry if this challenge was already done, I didn't know. I'm a chemist in real life so I just thought of that naturally, and I'm still new enough to this game that I can't know every challenge that has already been done.
