The DCC - February 22nd, 2023

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.)

Rithaniel - I honestly see no U in the activated ability, but I still voted for your card because I liked the design.

Riria - I just didn't want to give you a 2/2 first strike with additional upside for just one mana or even for free, that's why I put the two generic mana in the mana cost. Honestly, it already felt pushed to me at two mana and 4 life. I think some playtest would be needed to see what's the appropriate cost.
Also, your card that's up for voting today is missing rarity, and that's essentially the whole reason why I didn't vote for it. I guess I'll give you a HM.

netn10 - Hard to vote for a battle when we don't even know what they do yet.

marioguy3 - I think all the pairs from MOM that we've been shown so far are all two characters from the same plane, which these are not. I see why you put these specific two together though: Tibalt is dead as of ONE and Squee is no longer immortal so now he also has to face death.
Ravenous Oilsucker 3BR
Creature — Phyrexian Vampire (R)
Ravenous Oilsucker enters the battlefield with four oil counters on it.
Ravenous Oilsucker gets +1/+0 for each oil counter on it.
2{BP}, Sacrifice a Blood: Each opponent loses 1 life, then put an oil counter on Ravenous Oilsucker. ({BP} can be paid with B or 2 life.)
{RP}, Remove two oil counters from Ravenous Oilsucker: Create a Blood token. ({RP} can be paid with R or 2 life. A Blood token is an artifact with "1, T, Discard a card, Sacrifice this artifact: Draw a card.")

thanks to the various people who run this game but it just ain't a satisfying format, the votes and their rationale are just one big window into madness, eg, bravelion above explicitly punishing netn10 for trying something experimental

everyone has their own criteria when voting/judging. and while i mite lean more towards your side of the exploration-vs-standards debate, bravelion has the right to base his vote on whatever evaluation system makes sense to him.

i don't see that this should affect the fairness of the game itself, if everyone is using their own judgment criteria but applying it consistently to each card design what does it matter.

maro has written about the designer vs. developer dichotomy, and how he's been more willing to push the envelop and do things others have pushed back on. i think we need both types of people, the more developery folks help keep us pie in the sky people grounded

Untap all permanents. Shuffle all hands and graveyards into their owners' libraries, then each player draws seven cards. The active player takes an extra turn after this one. End the turn.
Let's try that one last time.

So, this would be a cycle of rare lands. The others would be a Forest Island that looks for a basic Mountain and taps for , a Plains Swamp that looks for a basic Forest and taps for , an Island Mountain that looks for Plains and taps for , and a Swamp Forest that looks for Islands and taps for . The flavor is not related to the wedge plane I've been working with.
