Today's Challenge:
Counters that aren't +1/+1 or -1/-1

.::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.

I'm travelling to Portugal for most of February for work, so I don't know if I'll be active enough to keep this going then. If someone can cover for next month's threads I'll pick it back up in March.
