The DCC - February 26th, 2021

[Rithaniel]

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.)

votes: netn10, RattingRots

Votes: RattingRots, Sagharri (even though it's at least a bend in monowhite, white gives hexproof to you, the player, not your creatures. That's green and blue. Your card should probably be monoblue, but I just like simple and elegant cards too much.)

Imposing Lawmaker 2WW
Creature — Human Advisor (R)
When Imposing Lawmaker enters the battlefield, if an opponent controls more lands than you, search your library for a Plains card, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.
When Imposing Lawmaker enters the battlefield, if an opponent has more cards in hand than you, draw a card.
"Laws can be hard sometimes, but that doesn't mean you can avoid following them."
1/4

Votes: Riria, RattingRots

Caller of the Meek W
Creature - Human Soldier (Rare)
3, T: Search your library for a creature card with power 1 or less and put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle.
2/1

Indighost, void_nothing

Bloodletter Map 1BG
Artifact (R)
You may play an additional land on each of your turns.

Votes: Sagharri, netn10

Deep Calling 1UU
Instant (R)
The owner of target Kraken, Leviathan, Octopus, or Serpent creature you control shuffles it into their library. If that player does, choose one -
• You draw cards equal to that creature's power.

Votes: Rira, netn10

Beauracratic Gridlock
Instant R
Put a paperwork counter on each creature with an activated ability with in its activation cost. Those creatures can't attack or block and their activated abilities can't be activated as long as they have a paperwork counter on them.

—Henry Bolt's Memoir

Votes: RattingRots, netn10 (my first instinct was "this card feels overpowered" but then I tried to brainstorm a way to break it and came up empty so here's a vote haha)

Evangelist Swindler 2UU
Creature - Human Advisor (MR)
When Evangelist Swindler enters the battlefield, look at target opponent's hand and the top X cards of their library, where X is the number of cards in that player's hand. You may exchange any number of cards between the two.
"He will eventually come back around, but we never intended to convert him long term anyway."
2/4

Indighost, Riria

HM: netn10 (I really like this but I don't think it works in monowhite, also it's very broken and would probably be banned in at least one constructed format)

Burrow (b/g)
Sorcery (R)
Search your library for a land card and put it into your graveyard. Then, shuffle your library.

Voidnothing, Netn10

Enrapturing Allure 2rr
Enchantment (R)
Whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control, you may gain control of target creature with lesser power until end of turn. If you do, untap that creature. It gains haste until end of turn.
Creatures you control get +1/+0.

Look at the top six cards of your library. Put up to two creature cards with converted mana cost 1 or less from among them onto the battlefield. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in random order.

RattingRots, Rithaniel

The Bell Tolls B
Sorcery (U)
Create 0/1 black Cleric creature token, then you may sacrifice seven Clerics. If you do, target player loses 10 life.

Votes: void_nothing, RattingRots

The "then shuffle" wording is gonna take a lot of getting used to. It feels so sentence-fragment-y.

Brainjack
Artifact - Equipment R
Equipped creature gets +2/+2.
Whenever equipped creature deals combat damage to a player, you lose X life and may search your library for a card with converted mana cost less than or equal to X, reveal it, and put it into your hand, then shuffle, where X is the amount of damage dealt this way.
Whenever Brainjack becomes unattached from a creature, that creature's controller sacrifices it.
