Sorry, there was a bit of an emergency I had to deal with this afternoon.
Bloodseeker Familiar: Vampires are bad pet owners. We're going right up to the modern era here with blood tokens. The design is conservative, and there's not much bad to say.
Murderer of Av-hanna: I love it. Human Frailty is such a flavorful card, but it's just not all that powerful. Giving it a body makes a big difference, even if it's just a Scathe Zombies body. This feels like the right mix of flavor and conservative card design.

I like what you Didgeridid there. I'm surprised there aren't more one-time dash effects in existence. Being balanced around a really minor tribe allows you to have all the fun you want. You couldn't print this card for just any tribe, but minotaurs are a good choice.Cythare wrote: ↑2 years agoAnaba Virtuoso

Drudge Skeletons the rat factory. I really like this card, but the base of a 1/1 for is just too weak to be worth a card anymore. This gets you value if you can regenerate it twice, but you paid a lot of mana for not a lot of rats at that point. This actually feels weak enough that it could've been printed in the original set, but they didn't really do creature tokens back then.
Vampire Slayer really got to the logical conclusion of her character arc here. The main job is to mop vampire tokens, but exiling out of the hand and graveyard is a pretty sweet upside.Megiddo wrote: ↑2 years agoBloodline Exterminator

The goal with this was to use mutate to semi-simulate an attacking band. The flavor of the keyword used definitely evokes something closer to meld or some similar monstrous event.Mergatroid_Jones wrote: ↑2 years agoWhoa howdy, what is that thing?

This seems like an interesting digital design, but also feels logistically impossible to do on paper. So, logistically this is a special action like morph? Being able to add counters that can't be responded to, but could be done with a split second spell on the stack, seems like a lot.Juancu wrote: ↑2 years agoModder Bear

This seems like it potentially compounds pretty quickly, since it finds a creature card to give the counters to. I'm wary of repeatable tutors/draw effects in general, especially when GW also has many other ways to add counters.chetoos wrote: ↑2 years agoBattle Preparations

Minor gripe that this can enchant humans, which is mechanically fine, but against the flavor and maybe seems unintentional? I think I personally prefer the drafts matters one.

Modified has a specific meaning based on some leaks, but setting that aside, this seems like a very easy way to make it very hard to attack. I think that the first ability is fine at rare, but I do think that the second ability might be too cheap to make your opponent's creatures more expensive to attack if they aren't otherwise modified. I'd consider upping that to at least 2W, but otherwise this is a cool Propaganda/Moat effect.Mergatroid_Jones wrote: ↑2 years agoSilence in the Court

This is pretty cool, and I like that it lets you copy your opponents' Auras or Equipment (and even put said Equipment on creatures you don't control). The syntax was a bit confusing at first (I'd recommend the language "that player controls" at the end of the first sentence), but otherwise this seems like a reasonable white ramp/copy card.NinjaCaterpie wrote: ↑2 years agoOutfitter Monopoly

Armor being an enchantment instead of an artifact was a bit of a surprise - there's no reason an Equipment couldn't have totem armor (the ability specifically references auras, but there's no reason it couldn't be expanded). Otherwise these are neat effects. I'm a bit wary that this is a lot of flexibility at its cost for an effect that feels like it belongs a booster set.Pygyzy wrote: ↑2 years agoTriad Charm

Nice, simple effect. While the clear application is to use it as a semi-removal spell or to at least soften up an opposing threat, I like the niche mode of spending 5 mana and killing your own creature to loot for an out, which makes this a neat Melvin card for me.

You haven't given me the full information needed to understand how this works, but let's talk about the happy path*: I play Arcbound Worker turn 1 and end up with a 1/2 lifelinker with Cliffside Lookout's ability. More likely we try to put it onto a larger creature, but for zero mana investment this does a lot (especially considering how easy, free, and fast it can be to add counters). You upgrade a +1/+1 counter by +0/+1, lifelink, AND a third ability. That feels dangerous and puts a low ceiling on power level. Explore adding a mana cost.
*Unanswered questions: "for as long as you want" makes it sound like I can, as a special action, convert this back into a creature. But do I just get a 0/1 into play? Or put it back into the command zone? Etc. Use of Partner in the name implies that it could be one of two commanders with Partner. Details like this would need to be worked out and do prevent a full evaluation of what you are trying to do.
Metamorph I think would take the cake for cheapest clone variant yet. Mana value 5 or less is a LOT. The first example that came into my head was making a one mana Mulldrifter. I'd consider this if it were MV 3 or less. I think that still ends up being quite strong.Mergatroid_Jones wrote: ↑2 years agoSegovian Metamorph

Segovian Metamorph enters the battlefield as a copy of target creature with mana value 5 or less, except it is a 0/1, and has changeling.

At the beginning of your upkeep, you may reveal a non-legendary creature card from your hand if it doesn't share a name with a creature you control. If you do, create a token that's a copy of that creature, except it's a 1/1.
Summons is also fun. I like the build-around and the encouragement to diversify your deck contents (this parenthetical is to acknowledge formats that demand this). Very nice. Probably needs to go up a bit in mana since the first one's free. Non-Legendary helps a lot.
Artifact land, lol. Big fan because of the many ways to untap artifacts that this easily combos with. I assume you wanted the "you control" in there.
I hereby name you and mergatroid the big bonkers brothers because of the big bonkers creatures you both want to be cheating out. As far as I can tell this spell doesn't offer a ton of benefit to you, right? It reduces the cost and shrinks the creature, but that just affects a card for each opponent, no? Given that the power on a lot of creatures is in their abilities rather than their stats, I'm not seeing this effect being worth spending 4 mana on a sorcery.chetoos wrote: ↑2 years agoSegovian Influence

Look at the creature cards in all opponent's hands, then, for each player, choose one creature card in that player's hand. Those creature cards perpetually gain "This spell costs less to cast where X is this creature's printed power minus one." and "skulk", and their base power and toughness perpetually become 1/1.
New Phyrexia isn't the only plane attempting to spread their power to the rest of the multiverse.

Menace and Skulk make this fairly hard to block (and raise the possibility of a 2-for-1 exchange significantly). The saboteur effect is strong here, of course. The overall package looks under rate for rare, though, as you get a gray ogre that doesn't have any immediate impact or ability to do much more than trade on defense.Cythare wrote: ↑2 years agoSegovian Dreadnought
Artifact Creature — Dreadnought (R)
Menace, skulk
Whenever Segovian Dreadnought deals combat damage to a player, look at the top card of that player's library. You may put it into their graveyard.
On Segovia, a terrible weapon of war. Across the Multiverse, a surprisingly effective tool for subterfuge.
2/2
IIW: A fine winter coat
I think you're missing a "an opponent controls" clause here; it's not super intuitive if this has to tap itself as the only creature on the board. Otherwise, seems like a strong three drop for its rarity.spacemonaut wrote: ↑2 years agoSegovian Kraken

Whenever Segovian Kraken enters the battlefield or attacks, tap target creature with power 2 or less.

: Add plus for each other micro creature on the same artifact as Colonizer Elfing.
(A micro creature can't block, and its power and toughness can't be modified. As a sorcery, you may stick a micro creature onto an artifact you control. It follows that artifact's zone changes, and can't change on its own.)
0/1
it can attack? even though it would take a day to get over there to the other side of the battlefield? I guess. This supertype seems limited in application.
I smell......... an edh card. This likely attacks as a 5/5, and only grows bigger from there. I have no idea if that's good enough in a multiplayer game, but I'll give you a hat tip or something for this.

I agree that if it didn't give the effect to you, it would be overcosted, but it does give the effect to you. You look at each opponent's hand, then, for each player (You are a player) you segovian a creature. I understand that the wording can be confusing, don't worry . So for current standard/alchemy, you reduce their Werewolf Pack Leader to a 1/1 that still costs gg, and turn your Hullbreaker Horror into a UU bounce machineMegiddo wrote: ↑2 years agoI hereby name you and mergatroid the big bonkers brothers because of the big bonkers creatures you both want to be cheating out.

As the new Mayor of Segovia, I just want to thank all the little people who made this moment possible.

When Nezumi Trainer enters the battlefield, each opponent discards a card. When you cast your next creature spell, that creature enters the battlefield with an additional menace counter, and "Bushido 2" counter on it. (Bushido reminder text goes here)
