for the colorless mana symbol is having to refer to double-saturated multicolor costs as being MMNN. CCDD is just aesthetically betterPsst, check the second page of Custom Card Contests & Games! Because of the daily contests, a lot of games fall down to there.

You already called out fuse, which this is more or less identical to. I think you're trying to have this NOT be a split card, but I think you would need to from a legibility perspective. I'm thinking about how cleave kind of looks... ugly. This might be confusing without clear physical boundaries on a card. Make a mockup.
I like some of these a lot, others less so. Agent is my favorite. It's strong, demands an answer, and has (some) protection. Juggler on the other hand is wildly strong. If you've played against Kuldotha Flamefiend you'll have an idea of just how good this ability is. Having it for cheaper and with no additional sacrifice needed pushes this into Rare territory, IMO. Mournsharer is probably fine. I don't like distributing cards around and I'd probably want to give some more beef to the base card to make up for that. And Extinguish, again, probably undercosted.Sporegorger_Dragon wrote: ↑1 year agoInsidious Agent

I want to streamline this ability somehow. Permanent card prevents you from going infinite with, say, Time Warp, but I'd still be concerned about repetitive gameplay with creatures or artifacts that can sacrifice themselves. You might want to do something like: "Instead of drawing your first card each turn, exile the top card of your library. You may return a permanent card that shares a type with the exiled card from your graveyard to your hand. If you don't, put the exiled card into your hand." That way you are seeing a fresh card each turn. This is me taking the position that repetitive gameplay is bad, by the way.NinjaCaterpie wrote: ↑1 year agoDisciple of the Stars

Oh boy, this gets real mean real fast. The base body is not very big, though, and it will largely have a period of vulnerability when you cast it the first time. Probably fair? I'd like to test it.

Cute. I might also want this to be an exile situation for memory issues, though in paper it's not so bad (just leave the card face up if you're going to cast it). I feel like this could be some bonkers combo enabler, though I couldn't begin to tell you how it would go. If you love chaos, this is your card.Stapler wrote: ↑1 year agoMelek, Izzet Reiterator

Interesting colors for this. Correct colors, but blue isn't the color where you might expect to maximize this ability. I like that. The basic land clause balances this but also adds a lot of tension for deckbuilding. This might be the kind of card that wants some soft protection to prevent you from getting absolutely blown out in combat by a doom blade.avatarz wrote: ↑1 year agoMaderga, Daughter of Synthesys

This doesn't actually fit the prompt, as we wanted cards that ONLY cost MMNN. Adding a generic takes it out of range. However, we'll still evaluate. This is probably undercosted considering that it makes combat impossible for your opponent. I think it is a printable card, it just needs to cost more or otherwise have some sort of cost.Mergatroid_Jones wrote: ↑1 year agoCCDD/ MMNN are nonsense to me. Glad somebody translated.

My hotfix on players being artifacts is that Naturalize and co. destroy artifact permanents, and players aren't permanents, soooo..... The more obvious fix would be to change the abilities to reference enchanted players, but a) It's difficult to disambiguate between "the particular player this enchantment is attached to" versus "any player that has an Aura attached to them" - quite the functional difference! - and b) I didn't want these to synergize with Curses, and and c) it's meant to tie in with a more mechanical/cyberpunk flavor, like Neo Kamigawa but aimed at players, not creatures.

I was trying some mechanics for a western plane. So I tried rules for dueling creatures, but nothing congealed, even using extra rules a la dungeon. But I moved some concepts around, and I like this one. Sure, it allows the opponent to filter (like clash, but didn't we love when the opponent allowed us to fix mana?) but they get hit if they discard a land (or they may not have a land.) Meanwhile, hitting is actual advantage. And the opponent loses card quality for the endgame, if they defend too well.

When you play another card of the chosen type for the first time in a turn, untap Dazzling Ring.
Note: Use of the word "play" feels odd, but it's the only term that can apply to every card type.

Have to do a quick one.
Judging:
Set the Table seems like an interesting piece that requires a bit of planning to minimize its drawback. Presumably the "set" in the cardname is from "setting on fire."

Interesting and seemingly powerful. Rare seems about right. You can't use the stolen card right away, and it might discourage your opponent from killing the Cait at least somewhat.Ink-Treader wrote: ↑1 year agoCovetous Cait
Creature - Cat Faerie (R)
When Covetous Cait enters the battlefield, target opponent reveals their hand. Choose a nonland card from it and exile it.
When Covetous Cait leaves the battlefield, you may cast cards exiled with it for as long as they remain exiled, and you may spend mana as though it were mana of any type to cast those spells.
4/3
IIW: novel creature type combos
The movie trailer for Bridge to Terabathia was very misleading. Seems powerful, not sure if it would actually lead to fun gameplay.OneAndOnly wrote: ↑1 year agoBridge to Seragatha
Legendary Land
Add .
Whenever another player searches their library for a land card, you may sacrifice an untapped land. If you do, search your library for a land card and put it onto the battlefield tapped.

Search for Scraps tickles my fancy the most. I'm surprised this doesn't exist yet.Megiddo wrote: ↑1 year agoSearch for Scraps
Instant {U}
Look at the top three cards of your library. Put one of them into your hand and the rest on the bottom of your library in any order.
Morbid — If a creature died this turn, instead look at the top thirteen cards of your library. Put one of them into your hand and the rest on the bottom of your library in random order.

Set the Table
Sorcery {R}
Create X food tokens. Then, starting with you, each player chooses a creature they control and gains control of one of those Food tokens. Repeat this process until X creatures have been chosen this way. Set the Table deals X damage to each creature chosen this way.

Set the Table seems like an interesting piece that requires a bit of planning to minimize its drawback. Presumably the "set" in the cardname is from "setting on fire."
While the mechanic itself is interesting, I don't feel framing it as gunslinging is the best mechanic/flavor meld here. Perhaps something more broad, like "compete/contest"?Juancu wrote: ↑1 year agoGunslinger Savant
Creature - Human Gunslinger (U)
Whenever Gunslinger Savant attacks, you may shoot. If you hit, draw a card. (To shoot, exile a card face down from your hand. An opponent may discard a card, then draw a card. Turn the exiled card face up. You hit unless an opponent discarded a card with higher mana value. You may play the exiled card until end of turn.)
2/2
IIW: planar concepts
Specialize seems interesting, but also the sort of thing that can only appear as a one-off in a supplemental product. Of these, the Witch seems to the best implementation. The others feels a little too broad and prone to being staples. Great names all around though.Mergatroid_Jones wrote: ↑1 year agoFocused Researcher
Creature- Human Wizard (U)
When Focused Researcher enters the battlefield, specialize. (If you don't have a favored card type, choose one. That is your favored type for the rest of the game.)
