Quick reminder to @netn10 and @Henlock - this round's due date is tomorrow but I can extend if needed.

I'm not sure if this fulfills the requirement. Please let me know if it isn't.

Experimental Chamber
Land (Rare)
T, Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature you don't control: Add GG.
2U, T, Remove a +1/+1 counter from target creature you don't control: Draw a card. At the beginning of your next main phase, add U.
Ravnican society cannot progress without Simic, and Simic cannot progress without humanity.

One more ping for @Henlock - the due time for this round is in less than 11 hours now, but once again, it's no problem for me to offer an extension.

Artillery Museum
Land (u)
Artillery Museum enters the battlefield tapped.
: Add or to your mana pool.
: Put Artillery Museum from your hand onto the battlefield. Activate as a sorcery.

I would close the round at this point but seeing as @Henlock's card doesn't actually fit the challenge of this round I'll extend a little more time for editing.

My bad. i designed as an example of a cycle and just chose any combination without heeding the challenge. Sorry.

No worries - I'll close the round now. Everyone please critique all the others and arrange them into a T3!

Quick reminder to all contestants:

3 - slimytrout

Reminder to @slimytrout @netn10 and @Henlock - please get at least a T3 in ASAP!

Monoredmage: Lots of stuff happening here. The planeswalker pinging is a classical red effect, The investigating and artifact synergy are quite in blue's boat. On producing more than one mana, This checks the box.of not be able to do it on turn 1 by CIPT, but getting a stream of artifacts to abuse this is quite easy.

Slimytrout: I am not sure how this works. You need a target to use the ability, but does this mean this is not a mana ability and goes to the stack? Rules aside, this is quite clean and very flavorful for Golgari, so it doesn't really looks like a part of the cycle. Depending on cards in graveyards as a resource for fixing seems steep enough, but the value of having graveyard hate at the ready greatly offsets that.

Netn10: On producing more than one mana, this can do it on turn one but provided an opponent has a creature there. The second ability is a bit odd in producing mana later. One of the things I don't like about this design is that it relies entirely on your.opponent having a creature to be useful.
