Absolutely. (I was happy to see Thalia and The Gitrog Monster in the MOM previews but, since the members of the legendary teams come from the same plane as one another, this seems like a missed opportunity for Tatsunari to take Gitrog for a spin.)

The MTGNexus Custom Card Creation Random Card of the Day for 2/22/23 is Akroan Horse.
Mechanically, this is good execution of a top-down design. Flavorfully - this is, for me, one of those instances where Theros fell flat by hewing way too closely to actual Greek mythology. Having an event in the background of the story called The Akroan War that was won due to the deceptive gift of a horse monument in which soldiers actually held... it's a bit on the nose and a bit cheesy. Do something different with your mythic tropes! Show me the clever twist!

The MTGNexus Custom Card Creation Random Card of the Day for 2/23/23 is Oko's Accomplices.
So this was a planeswalker deck card. Whether you would want to put this body/stats in a set depends on the kind of Limited you want.

Ah man. This was the card that I played when I was first getting into standard. Jeskai control with this guy, Deafening Clarion and Niv-Mizzet, Parun. Settle the Wreckage.

The MTGNexus Custom Card Creation Random Card of the Day for 3/1/23 is Sheoldred, the Apocalypse.
In terms of Praetor ability pairs, this is a particularly nasty one since it'll be popping off all the time. Thankfully deathtouch isn't that relevant a keyword at Sheoldred's size, and she's relatively easy to kill other than the fact of that somewhat high toughness, but as players of multiple formats can attest, she is very powerful.

I love Prowl but I also love it if they would print it on more cards like its an amazing tribal mechanic as technically it is worded to work with any subtype.
Aggressive Drinker
Creature - Vampire (C)
Prowl (You may cast this for its prowl cost if you dealt combat damage to a player this turn with a Vampire.)
If the Prowl cost was paid, Aggressive Drinker has Bloodthirst 2 .
1/1

The MTGNexus Custom Card Creation Random Card of the Day for 3/3/23 is School of Piranha.
I like blue beaters with an upkeep cost, but that's just too steep. Change the in the ability to , and I'd print this today.

"Upkeep or sac" creatures haven't really been a thing for ... well, for quite a while. Lord of the Pit and Force of Nature are the OGs, but the ability seemed to quickly migrate toward big blue beaters. But usually, BIG blue beaters. 1U for a 3/3 may still be above curve, but with no other abilities (protection or evasion), it ends up feeling weak.

Like imagine this
Incorrigible Princeling
Creature — Human Noble (R)
Whenever Incorrigible Princeling attacks, exile the top card of your library. Until end of turn, you may play that card.
Incorrigible Princeling can't be blocked by Nobles.
1/1
That's the trinket text I like, it's still mostly irrelevant, but at least the logic is that he's so spoiled no one can tell him what to do. It just exists to make the reader laugh.
Or Kodama of the East Tree is another perfect example. There only a tiny power level impact to the card having reach outside of incredibly fringe cases, but it is fantastic flavor because of... Kodama's Reach

I read it as the mob specifically hates the Selesnya ( versus ), and thus hoses one of their main mechanical themes. Unfortunately, there's not a loose cycle of corresponding cards hating on the other allied color guilds to make it make sense in context.

The MTGNexus Custom Card Creation Random Card of the Day for 3/6/23 is Craven Knight.
Could be a black common today - would probably not be a very good one, but still. The sword and shield symbols by P/T were a good learning idea for Portal, but "intercept" instead of "block" is just so baffling.

So in that case:
Waste Ooze
Creature — Ooze (U)
If an ability an opponent controls would cause a card to be put into that player's graveyard, exile it and put two +1/+1 counters on Waste Ooze instead.
2/2
(Not sure the wording works but the idea is conveyed) The stats are bad and it doesn't have trample because this was before creatures could be powerful. JK
My feeble attempt at making a card to hose the Dimir strategy.

I was JUST about to post this:
Primeval Ancient
Creature - Elemental (U)
When Primeval Ancient is put into your graveyard from your library by a spell or ability an opponent controls, you may put it onto the battlefield.
4/3
It refuses to be censured or forgotten.
Still seems too good. The rest are so hard. White already has so much top-tier Rakdos hate. Ironically the hard part is making something as niche and mediocre as the Mob.
"What's with you and pitcher plants?" -NinjaCaterpie, 27-9-2021
I like Intercept for a few cases:
Rogue Bogy
Artifact - Vehicle
Haste, Flying
When Rogue Bogy enters the battlefield, create a 1/1 colorless Pilot creature token with "This creature crews Vehicles as though its power were 2 greater."
Whenever Rogue Bogy is intercepted, sacrifice it and a pilot creature you control.
Crew - 2
HIGHWAY TO THE DANGERZONEEEEEEEEEEEE!
2/1

Artifact - Vehicle

Wary Zeppelid
Creature - Beast (U)
Flying
Wary Zeppelid can't block or be blocked by creatures with reach.
4/3
The closest to the original: evasive fattie with a drawback that hates Gruul vaguely.
Disgruntled Citizens
Creature - Human Citizen (U)
Haste
When Disgruntled Citizens enters the battlefield, if an opponent controls a creature with flying or an enchantment, create a 1/1 red Goblin creature token.
3/2
Almost Summit Prowler that vaguely hates Azorius (and Orzhov too, for good measure, which I think is thematically appropriate).
Marble Spirit
Creature - Spirit (U)
Vigilance
When Marble Spirit dies, if you were dealt damage this turn, you gain 4 life.
1/4
I admit this is the toughest one; very hard to design something that doesn't completely hose the Rakdos. At least the latter are very eager and very prone to damaging you, so this might make life a bit tougher for them.

Happy International Women's Day! This card could have been monowhite in most sets, but of course Alara's multicolor policy is different, and Alara Reborn was special.

A classic lord, obviously. Master of the Pearl Trident is the modernized version in multiple ways. That Fifth Edition flavor text goes so hard.
