The DCC - April 15th, 2024

[void_nothing]

Welcome to the DCC!
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post in the DCC Discussion Thread.

How To Play

---

How does this card-making game work? It's simple! Whenever your card receives a vote, you receive [1] point for the month. If your card ends up with the most votes for that day, you will receive [2] additional points for the month. In the event of a tie, each person who tied receives [1] additional point. At the end of each month, the person with the most points on the scoreboard wins that month, then the scoreboard is cleared for the next month. You can participate in as many or as few days as you want in any month.

Rules

---

• Each day you may post any card you want. On the next day all of the posted cards will be put into the thread as long as your card didn't get disqualified - see the next point for more details. If you post more than one card in a DCC thread, only the first card you post will be taken.
• When you vote, you need to make exactly two votes for two different people. Vote for the cards that are listed in the first post, not other cards being posted in the thread. If you notice that you've only voted for one person, include your second vote in a post, even if you're not submitting a card.
• If you want to change your vote for any reason, post that change in the day's thread (you can include it with your card if you want). Changed votes in the discussion thread will be ignored.
• Voting for only one person, for three or more people, or for yourself will earn you an asterisk by your name in the monthly leaderboard. So will failing to vote if you've posted a card. (We're not going to do anything about people who don't vote or post cards; that would be kind of silly.) This indicates that you're on probation for the next 21 days. If you're on probation and you make another improper vote, your card will be disqualified. Repeated disqualification is grounds for warnings and/or infractions for not following the game rules, so please don't do it.
• Voting for everything in the poll will be grounds for a lifetime ban from the DCC. Don't do it. It just wastes the thread creators' time.
• If you wish to post a render, please use the hyperlink option when posting your card and make the card name the image link. Renders are usually large enough to clog up the list, so submit a text-formed card and (optionally) a link in the name to the render.
• This thread is just for your card submission. Take your questions/comments to our discussion thread. If it's a question, comment, or complaint about probation, PM void_nothing and/or the month's DCC organizer.
• When posting make sure that:
  • You have included all of the previous day's entries.
  • You update the leaderboard with the previous day's scores.

(An easy way to post the new thread is to hit the multiquote button on every post in the previous day's thread, then click Post Reply. Select everything in this post, copy it, and then paste it into the first post for a new thread. You'll have to clean up a few small things, like quote tags around the opening post and the previous day's cards.)

Leo's OTJ prerelease report

Show

Hide

If anybody cares, I and my friend went third in our 2HG prerelease despite opening a horrible pool. He managed to put together a pretty decent black-red outlaw deck (all star Vial Smasher, Gleeful Grenadier), while I tried to build a green-white NON-Mount deck as we opened very few actual Mounts, so what I actually tried to build was an ordinary green-white midrange deck without caring about any of the set's mechanics. Not the best build I've ever made. We went 1-1-1, with two of the matches going to extra rounds, one ending up in a draw with nobody able to win before the additional turns were over, and the other lost at the third additional turn. But what actually matters is that my friend and his other two friends made me the gift of a happy day, a dive in the past when I was their age (23, now I'm 40) and a kick in the... you got it where, to the monster of depression, at least for one day. And for a person like me now, that's what really counts. Can't wait for the next one with them! Also, I've definitely found my new LGS. Now, this store treated us well, like a store is supposed to treat its customers. We all agreed that we will be back there next time. I will go there by myself next week for the biggest tournament I've been to in years, with several tens of people, format: Modern. My deck: Boros burn. I don't care about the results, only that it'll be another kick in that place to the monster.

This is my other card from Round 1 of the April MCC, the one that got me out (no regrets and no hard feelings). I've made one single change: I've turned the twobrid black mana into Golgari hybrid. The rest has stayed as it was. Starting tomorrow, I'll go back to random cards.

Cemetery Vulture 3U
Creature — Bird (C)
Flying
Whenever Cemetery Vulture attacks, you may pay {B/G} and exile a creature card from your graveyard. If you do, Cemetery Vulture gains indestructible until end of turn. ({B/G} can be paid with either B or G.)
You can often see it dancing in the sky above the graves. When it has chosen its preferred one to feed on, it dives down onto it at such a speed that nothing and nobody would ever be able to stop it.
