Today's Challenge: New version of one of the March of the Machine precon commanders (Gimbal, Gremlin Prodigy, Bright-Palm, Soul Awakener, Kasla, the Broken Halo, Brimaz, Blight of Oreskos, or Sidar Jabari of Zhalfir)

.::To Enter::.

  • 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.

Well, it's not one of those commanders, but the design space is so narrow here that I'm bending the rules a bit.

Gimbal and Bright-Palm
Legendary Creature - Gremlin Fox Artificer Shaman (M)
Artifact creatures you control have riot, backup 1 and modular 1.
Each creature you control with a +1/+1 counter on it has trample.
At the beginning of combat on your turn, create a 0/0 red Gremlin artifact creature token.
4/4

IIW: A spell without mana cost (not ). Pretty much what some of you already did yesterday, but for all spell types.

RGW, T: Choose one -
* Attach target equipment or aura to target creature you control.
* Move all counters from target creature to target creature you control.
2/2

4/5

so glad everyone liked my challenge, all of these are so good! I've been fiddling with the Bright-Palm and Gimbal precons recently, so I thought this would be a cool challenge. Each of their archetypes are so distinct, yet so versatile.
IIW: card from a universes beyond that'll never happen. (keep the 13+ label on the packs, though, people. Work-appropriate franchises only.)
I love Tchotchke Elemental. And as always: wear your seatbelt, tear up your friend's mill deck, and buh-bye. (Please don't actually tear up your friend's mill deck, no matter how annoying it is.)
