Today's Challenge: A card's rules text referencing someone winning or losing the game

.::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. In case of a further tie, the IIW of the earlier poster will be used.

@TessaMTG: Took me a bit to really understand the full implications of this effect. Could be a bit too strong, with the annihilator, the repeatable card draw and untapping of everything. Probably relatively easy to go infinite with some upkeep token generation (infinite mana + card draw), but there are easier infinite combos, so I guess that's fine. Anyway, this was a bit of a brain twister, in a good way.


IIW: New meld of two existing cards - Choose two cards, add a meld ability and create a meld card combining these two cards.

@Komandon - Black doesn't really get efficient enchantment removal without restrictions or drawbacks. You found a very original way for a drawback that makes it more of a mill card than a removal. I think it fits black well.
@TessaMTG - I think this card is way too powerful, but I really like the concept and that you brought Gravestorm back.

My submission yesterday doesn't exactly follow the challenge, but I couldn't think of anything that specific and I liked how that card works. (If targeted correctly it could follow the challenge!)

When From Nothingness Come Knives enters the battlefield, target opponent reveals their hand. You choose a nonland card there. That opponent exiles that card with a hit counter on it.
At the beginning of each opponent's end step, if that player's life total is less than or equal to the number of cards they own in exile with hit counters on them, they lose the game.
2BBB: Choose target nonland card in exile with a hit counter on it. You lose life equal to that card's mana value, then copy it and you may cast the copy without paying its mana cost.

IIW: Extremely powerful T abilities
