Awhile back I made a Duel Deck: Gruul vs Orzhov for the fun of it, because I know how those two guilds especially hate one another. Anyhow, I decided to add some custom cards to the decks, including remakes of the popular Guild Leaders, Borborygmos and Obzedat! So anyhow, here they are.
Borborygmos, Gruul Warlord2RRGG
Legendary Creature - Cyclops Warrior (Mythic)
Trample, hexproof
Whenever a creature dealt damage by Borborygmos dies, put X +1/+1 counters on Borborygmos, where X is equal to that creature's power. "I've crushed entire cities with this arm, and slain armies with my other. What makes you think you could stop me?"
6/6
Obzedat, Eternal CouncilWWBB
Legendary Creature - Spirit Advisor (Mythic)
Whenever a player cast a spell, each opponent loses 1 life. You gain life equal to the total life lost this way.
You may cast Obzedat, Eternal Council from your graveyard. "Our reign is eternal. We will outlast them even as their ideals turn to dust."
4/4
Borborygmos, Gruul Warlord felt uninspired and a bit out of flavor with the GTC blurb (of Rurik Thar Vs Borbo , Borbo winning but R&T getting more prestige within the Gruul)
i feel like Duing a R&T would be better and nice ( having the 2 headed guy that isn't totaly on the flavor "gruul stomp, gruul eat, this flat == food" but instead on the flavor of a smart and a dumb guy together in a huge body that has some protetion to spells)
Obzedat, Eternal Council i would say a litle too powerfull... like you can play it and just wait the storm counter go to 20... even burn would have a hard time dealing with it , agro would just sit waiting for the gg, if played by a esper deck the guy would just wait for the win protecting ob from exiling spells...
you could maybe do two more lines that would prevent it from being too overpowered. :
"Whenever you cast a spell, if this is not the first or second spell played this turn, you may exile ~~~~....
you may play ~~~~~~ from the exile."
other ways would be increasing its mana cost, or put a mana payment for the extort effect ( like pay 3 for 2 life) .
Repeteable treats are the most powerfull
