Itzquinth, fully grown 3RG
Legendary Creature - Dinosaur
Vigilance, Trample
Whenever a dinosaur enters the battlefield under your control, you may pay . When you do, that creature fights target creature you don't control.
Each other dinosaur you control that's been damaged this turn has vigilance and trample
5/5

IIW: Craft with _____
Very potent first ability, second ability clearly meant to capitalize on the first, to give your fighters vigilance and trample. I wonder though, if it were possible for a different kind of bonus, since this will also give your Dinos vigilance and trample once they've been dealt combat damage and that might confuse some.

Exhumation Site G
Artifact – Fortification (R)
When ~ enters the battlefield, you may attach it to target land you control.
Whenever fortified land is tapped for mana, its controller adds an additional C.
Whenever fortified land becomes tapped, create a Bone token. (It's an artifact with: "T, Sacrifice X Bones: Create a X/X colorless Dinosaur Skeleton token with trample. Activate only as a sorcery.")
Fortify 3

IIW: Equipment/Creature → Fortification/Land → ???/???
Hmm, interesting, but maybe better if we change that token to Dinosaur Bone token, to allow for other types of Skeletons, like what they did with amass.

Hexed Howdah 3
Artifact — Equipment Vehicle (U)
Menace
Equipped creature has menace.
Whenever Hexed Howdah or equipped creature attack, another target attacking creature with less power can't be blocked this turn.
Crew—Tap an untapped creature you control.
Equip to Dinosaur 2
3/1

IIW: Finality counters
Is the "Hexed" part the fact that this thing can attack even without being fitted to a Dinosaur, or that it generates it's own mount when crewed? Or maybe the act of crewing is what places it on a mount.

Triggered ability is meant to evoke a rider, I presume.

Overall card feels a bit disjointed, perhaps better to remove crew/Vehicle and replace with reconfigure?

Legendary artifact

Whenever you cast a dinosaur spell, gain 2 life if w was spent to cast it. It etbs with an additional 1/1 counter if g was spent to cast it, and shock a creature or Planeswalker if r was spent to cast it

The card itself is great, though. Relatively straightforward Dinosaur typal. I appreciate the little touch of referencing Zacama's three heads/activated abilities in the bonuses.

Results:
Winner: cheetos, for submitting an actual Dinosaur.

When Magnificent Banquet enters the battlefield, for each exiled creature card used to craft it, create a token that's a copy of that creature, except it's a Food artifact with "{2}, {T}, Sacrifice this artifact: You gain 3 life," and it loses all other card types.
3, {T}: Tap target creature and put a +1/+1 counter on it.

Gonna try though; soaking the carcass in seawater now, if I start stewing it before noon it might be edible after sundown. Pounding the liver and kidneys to add to the stew, also thowing in the leftover horsemeat jerky and smoked eel, might improve the flavor. Even if it still ends up too tough, we've got plenty of cabbage and leeks, plus a few potatoes, so at least we'll have some sort of stew. Go see if you can find me some wild ramp or swamp mustard."

For the Itzquinth, I wanted to keep mechanical consistency with his original card, and lots of dinos like self damage. The only issue is that the entering dinos need haste to take advantage. This is kind of meant to be a puzzle for players to figure out how to use properly.

As for the bones, I guess that this is a flashforward, if they ever do Magic Omega, the counterpart to Magic Origins. Zacama can't live forever, right? R-right?
Also, I'd appreciate if someone could judge the bugs planeswalker I made, just as a lark. no pressure.

1) Slimefoot and Squee would be my favorite card ever, if only they were in Sultai colors... :pensive:

Lix and Iba, Jungle's Custodians
1{B}{G}{U}
Legendary Creature - Plant Fungus (M)
Whenever Lix and Iba, Jungle's Custodians enters the battlefield or attacks, if a creature you control explored or you descended this turn, create two 1/1 green Saproling creature tokens.
2{B}{G}{U}, Sacrifice two Saprolings: Return Lix and Iba from your graveyard to the battlefield and put up to one other target permanent card in a graveyard onto the battlefield under your control. That creature is a green Plant creature in addition to its other colors and types with power and toughness equal to its mana value. Activate only as a sorcery.
3/3
The Mycotyrant's efforts to expand beyond its caverns were rebuffed by the jungle itself.

On Ixalan, Saprolings are native to the plain, but somewhat different as shown on Overgrown Armasaur and Tendershoot Dryad, while the fungal Mycoids are actually invaders from another plane.

As the Mycotyrant starts moving towards the surface, it is met with resistance by Ixalan's native flora and fungi.


2) Malcolm, Keen-Eyed Navigator on Theros, you know, the other plane with avian Sirens:

Malias Calum, Captive Lure
2{U}
Legendary Creature - Siren (R)
Defender
Whenever an opponent attacks you and/or one or more planeswalkers you control, you draw a card and create a tapped Treasure token.
1{U}, T: Target creature an opponent controls attacks you this turn if able.
As long as Malias Calum is modified, it has flying and can attack as though it didn't have defender.
2/2

On Theros, a siren by the name of Malias is captured by pirates that exploit his enthralling song to lure ships for plunder while sedating any armed resistance.

The pirates keep him bound and gagged until needed, only removing the gag after they've plugged their ears with wax, communicating with hand signals.

Malias is biding his time until he can steal something to help him break his bonds, or until some Nyxborn creature bestows upon him a boon.


3) If there was a Rakdos on Kamigawa:

Aku-Dosu, Desecrator of Honor
3{U}{U}{B}{B}
Legendary Creature - Demon Spirit (M)
Flying, lifelink, trample
Whenever Aku-Dosu, Desecrator of Honor attacks, you lose half your life and you exile half the cards in your hand and half the non-Demon permanents you control. Round up each time.
Whenever Aku-Dosu deals combat damage to a player, that player exiles half the cards in their hand and half the non-Demon permanents they control. Round up each time.
You may play cards exiled with Aku-Dosu, and you may spend mana as though it were mana of any color to cast those spells.
7/6
No oath unbroken.

There is one oni no one dares invoke on Kamigawa. Too powerful to bind wth a contract, too treacherous to form a pact with. There is only one promise he honors: "I will betray you."

Yargle, Glutton of Takenuma 3BB
Legendary Creature — Rat Spirit (U)
Rat soulshift 4 (When this creature dies, you may return target Rat card with mana value 4 or less from your graveyard to your hand.)
When Yar-Kul grew too ambitious for Greasefang's liking, he was turned into a maggot and left in Takenuma to die. The rat that ate that maggot grew to become one with the swamp, always hungry to make up for its previous selfishness.

On Ixalan, Saprolings are native to the plain, but somewhat different as shown on Overgrown Armasaur and Tendershoot Dryad, while the fungal Mycoids are actually invaders from another plane.

As the Mycotyrant starts moving towards the surface, it is met with resistance by Ixalan's native flora and fungi.


2) Malcolm, Keen-Eyed Navigator on Theros, you know, the other plane with avian Sirens:

Malias Calum, Captive Lure
2{U}
Legendary Creature - Siren (R)
Defender
Whenever an opponent attacks you and/or one or more planeswalkers you control, you draw a card and create a tapped Treasure token.
1{U}, T: Target creature an opponent controls attacks you this turn if able.
As long as Malias Calum is modified, it has flying and can attack as though it didn't have defender.
2/2

On Theros, a siren by the name of Malias is captured by pirates that exploit his enthralling song to lure ships for plunder while sedating any armed resistance.

The pirates keep him bound and gagged until needed, only removing the gag after they've plugged their ears with wax, communicating with hand signals.

Malias is biding his time until he can steal something to help him break his bonds, or until some Nyxborn creature bestows upon him a boon.


3) If there was a Rakdos on Kamigawa:

Aku-Dosu, Desecrator of Honor
3{U}{U}{B}{B}
Legendary Creature - Demon Spirit (M)
Flying, lifelink, trample
Whenever Aku-Dosu, Desecrator of Honor attacks, you lose half your life and you exile half the cards in your hand and half the non-Demon permanents you control. Round up each time.
Whenever Aku-Dosu deals combat damage to a player, that player exiles half the cards in their hand and half the non-Demon permanents they control. Round up each time.
You may play cards exiled with Aku-Dosu, and you may spend mana as though it were mana of any color to cast those spells.
7/6
No oath unbroken.

There is one oni no one dares invoke on Kamigawa. Too powerful to bind wth a contract, too treacherous to form a pact with. There is only one promise he honors: "I will betray you."


IIW: Marine creature
The first one just seems like you made a sultai version of the card you like, but the other two are really interesting variants, taking familiar characters and turning them on their head. Very fun.

Autumn Willow, Spirit of Yavimaya 3GG
Legendary Creature - Avatar
Autumn Willow can only be targeted or enchanted as if it were a basic Forest.
At the end of your turn, if you did not play a land, create a tapped Forest land token.
4/4

IIW: Cards from the Shakespeare set where but all the creatures are small creatures such as Gnomes, Halfings, Goblins, Fairies, and Dwarves
TIL Autumn Willow is not from Dominaria originally.

Yargle, Glutton of Takenuma 3BB
Legendary Creature — Rat Spirit (U)
Rat soulshift 4 (When this creature dies, you may return target Rat card with mana value 4 or less from your graveyard to your hand.)
When Yar-Kul grew too ambitious for Greasefang's liking, he was turned into a maggot and left in Takenuma to die. The rat that ate that maggot grew to become one with the swamp, always hungry to make up for its previous selfishness.
6/3

IIW: A 2-mana artifact
Very interesting, turning Yargle on his head here. Unfortunately, the card is too good and too efficient to be from a set with soulshift

3/3

IIW: non-Aura enchantment tokens
I really like turning him from a detective to this, inverting the white in his colors. Really cool.
