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.)

I really like this but I think you might want to tweak it if you want to create the effect of your opponent trying to guess what's written. I think if both effects can work in the same turn, if there's any risk of your opponent being able to sacrifice a creature to avoid it getting stolen, you can always just immediately sac it. The benefit of an irreversible time control is powerful enough that you don't need to risk it. I would rework it so that you had to delay a turn (by making it an artifact with a tap ability, or just stating you can't activate both abilities in the same turn, or similar).

The reason I didn't vote for any of your previous cards in this cycle wasn't strategic voting or anything like that, it was just that the effects didn't usually correspond to the mana cost. In my opinion, this card is what the whole rest of the cycle should have been, so it does get my vote today. Cost: BG{U/R}, so I expect something monoblack, something monogreen, plus something that either blue or red could do by themselves. Exiling cards from graveyards is the black part, check. Life gain is the green part, check even if it also could have been white but it still makes perfect sense in green. Impulsive draw is red, no doubt about it, and blue can also do it as a subset of casting spells essentially from wherever it wants. This is how this cycle should have been done all along in my opinion, even if it's clearly a very difficult thing to do. But today you've done it well, so you do get my vote.
Adoyan, Okiba Bikerider 2RWB
Legendary Creature — Rat Pilot (R)
At the beginning of combat on your turn, choose target Vehicle you control, then flip a coin. If you win the flip, put a +1/+1 counter on Adoyan and that Vehicle becomes an artifact creature until end of turn.
Vehicles you control have first strike.
Whenever Adoyan crews a Vehicle, untap Adoyan. This ability triggers only once each turn.

I liked both of the powerful land cards, today. It was difficult to decide between them.

Light of Probity
Instant R
Counter target instant or sorcery spell, activated ability, or triggered ability. If a creature's or planeswalker's ability is countered this way, Light of Probity deals 4 damage to that permanent.
