Welcome to the Card Creation League! Everyone is free to participate in either or both of the first two rounds. Come join us!

Theme

It's Instant Month here in the CCL - this month will be all about various things done at instant speed.

Challenge
Design a four-card vertical cycle (one common, one uncommon, one rare, and one mythic) of instants and cards with flash. Your cycle must consist of at least one of each.
Clarifications
Show
Hide
  • A vertical cycle is a group of mechanically related cards based on rarity, not color. Usually they're all the same color or colors, but there is no restriction on the cards' colors in this challenge.
  • You could design either three instants and one card with flash, three cards with flash and one instant, or two of each.
  • Make sure to include a rarity.
Contestants:

For my projects (Jeff Lionheart, "One pierced heart, two mindful horns", republished articles from my series "The Lion's Lair", and custom sets), see Leo's content index (Last updated on April 9th 2024 - Added TLL #8).
After I'm done republishing my articles I want to reprise the series focusing it more on editing, wording, and templating. Suggest potential future article topics here.
