Welcome to the February MCC! We've now gotten started exploring the flavor and mechanics of the set with Kaldheim Month here at the MCC, and you've made it to Round 2, so give yourself a pat on the back and get ready to boast about it!
Main Challenge: Design a legendary creature card with a boast ability.
Subchallenge 1: Your card is the main creature type for the realm used on your Round 1 card.
Subchallenge 2: Your card has the word "permanent" (or "permanents") in its rules text.
DEADLINES
Design deadline: Sunday, February 21st 23:59 EDT
Judging deadline: Wednesday, February 24th 23:59 EDT
Main Challenge: Your card must have at least one boast ability, and that ability must work within the existing rules for boast (although you can have other abilities like Birgi's that mess with those rules).
Subchallenge 1:
The Ten Realms can be found listed in various places (here and here, for example) but here are the main creature types for each one:
Istfell - spirits
Karfell - zombies
Immersturm - demons
Gnottvold - trolls
Bretagard - all five colors, but centered in , humans
Starnheim - angels
Skemfar - elves
Littjara - shapeshifters
Surtland - giants
Axgard - dwarves
(The colors are provided for reference, but there is no requirement in the subchallenge to adhere to those colors.)
(X/3) Appeal - Do the different player psychographics (Timmy/Johhny/Spike) have a use for the card?
(X/3) Elegance - Is the card easily understandable at a glance? Do all the flavor and mechanics combined as a whole make sense?
Development
(X/3) Viability - How well does the card fit into the color wheel? Does it break or bend the rules of the game? Is it the appropriate rarity?
(X/3) Balance - Does the card have a power level appropriate for contemporary constructed/limited environments without breaking them? Does it play well in casual and multiplayer formats? Does it create or fit into a deck/archetype? Does it create an oppressive environment?
Creativity
(X/3) Uniqueness - Has a card like this ever been printed before? Does it use new mechanics, ideas, or design space? Does it combine old ideas in a new way? Overall, does it feel "fresh"?
(X/3) Flavor - Does the name seem realistic for a card? Does the flavor text sound professional? Do all the flavor elements synch together to please Vorthos players?
Polish
(X/3) Quality - Points deducted for incorrect spelling, grammar, and templating.
(X/2) Main Challenge (*) - Was the main challenge satisfied? Was it approached in a unique or interesting way? Does the card fit the intent of the challenge?
(X/2) Subchallenges - One point awarded per satisfied subchallenge condition.
Total: X/25
