Today's Challenge:
The number 8

.::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.

Coronated Dictate 2cwubrg

Exile all cards from your hand. If you exile less than eight, exile permanents you control equal to the difference.
Search your library for 8 cards with different mana values, reveal them, put them into your hand, then shuffle.
You have no maximum hand size for the rest of the game.
Foretell 8

IIW: pangram cards (cards containing all 26 letters of the alphabet in their name + type + rules text; the shorter the better)
