Creature — Avatar (M)
When this creature enters, if you cast it, search your library for up to one creature card, up to one instant card, up to one land card, and up to one sorcery card, then exile those cards. If a land card was exiled this way, put it onto the battlefield tapped. You may cast nonland cards exiled this way for as long as they remain exiled. Add GUR.

Design a card with behold where you behold something other than a creature type. It can still be a subtype but of another card type, or something else entirely. The card must be set on a Magic IP plane.

Heroic Call XW
Sorcery (R)
As an additional cost to cast this spell, behold a legendary permanent. (You may choose a legendary permanent you control or reveal a legendary permanent card from your hand.)
Look at the top twice X cards of your library. You may reveal a legendary card from among them and put it into your hand. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.
All the heroes of the past made Dominaria what it is today.

This weekly contest is broken up into two phases--

1. Monday-Thursday is the "throwing down the gauntlet" phase:

During this phase, you can enter the contest by challenging up to three other people to a duel. To challenge another person, you can use the following format: "I challenge @[username] to a duel!"

Once someone has been challenged, they can enter the contest before 11:59p on Thursday PST by accepting the challenge. To accept a challenge, reply with a design prompt that both duelists will follow in the next phase.

Each participant can accept multiple duels, but can only be involved in one duel per person per week.

2. Thursday-Sunday is the "challenge accepted" phase:

For each challenge that was accepted, the duelists must each post a single card that fulfills the prompt. Designs are due before 11:59p PST on Sunday.

If one duelist posts a design for a duel and the other does not, the one who did automatically wins that duel.

The contest thread for each week shall be posted with a public poll to decide winning duelists of the previous week. The poll runs three days.

Ties count as 1 win for each duelist.

-_- i should have posted 'i accept' earlier! if you'll let us squeeze under the deadline, the challenge will be...

Welcome to Erishum, the lotus world. It is in a constant state of self-renewal; Erishum is formed of countless petal-shaped shells which appear deep in its center and slowly expand before wilting at its outer edge and vanishing into starlight and cloud. It's somehow always the dawn of civilization on Erishum; priests stand on the roofs of ziggurat temples and offer beer and barley to gods carved into the clay of the sky.

Design a double-faced creature-and-noncreature card for Erishum.
