Today's Challenge:
Riff on a Magic Librarity

.::To Enter::.
In a single post:
  • Name exactly two other players to vote for their entries for the previous challenge. (In the event that there are two or fewer entries that you are allowed to vote for, you may vote for only one.)
  • 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.

Really? 0

At this point, free might as well be too expensive.

Instant (Mythic)

Split Second

Until the end of turn, instants and sorceries you cast gain split second.

"The academy students knew it was cheating. The professors clamored for their explusion. The headmaster merely smiled and said, "If they can cast a spell like that, I'd say they've aced their exams."

Three cards without rarity. Everyone, please always remember to include a rarity. The evaluation of a card is quite different if it's a common or a rare. Also, make sure the name is bolded.

Maro-Sorcerer's Blessing 3GG
Enchantment — Aura (R)
Enchant creature
Enchanted creature has trample.
As Maro-Sorcerer's Blessing enters the battlefield, choose Molimo or Multani.
• Molimo — Enchanted creature's power and toughness are each equal to the number of lands you control.
• Multani — Enchanted creature's power and toughness are each equal to the total number of cards in all players' hands.

IIW: Planar Chaos-style timeshifted cards (cards that exist in a color made in another color that also makes sense for the effect, for example Damnation)

As far as I remember, specifying rarity has never been required in this game :thinking: I get your concern, but I think we just assumed it's always the correct rarity :crazy:
I'll make a new Astral card

Refraction of the Eternities 2ur
Enchantment
Whenever a player casts a spell, they choose another card at random with the same colors and mana value. They may have that spell become a copy of that card. (Choose only among cards that are legal in the format you're playing.)

IIW: a digital-only card (something that would be very hard or time consuming to use in paper magic)

So the idea is to riff on (design a card based on) one of the unique cards at that link, like the infamous 1996 World Champion and Shichifukujin Dragon or, as dyd did, the MicroProse in-game cards.
