Welcome to the Card Creation League! Everyone is free to participate in either or both of the first two rounds. Come join us!
Theme
As is CCL tradition, December is winter celebrations month. Here's hoping you got all of the many things, small and big, you wanted out of these past holidays.
Challenge
Design a four-card vertical cycle (common, uncommon, rare, and mythic) of cards with the snow supertype.
Make sure to include a rarity.
PLEASE NOTE: This month will NO LONGER use the "mandatory top 3" rule. Critiques and top 3s will each be worth one bonus point per round but it will be possible to score points and advance even without submitting a top 3. This will also be done on a trial basis; future months may once again require top 3s from contestants.
This month's schedule has been slightly modified owing to its late start. Your submissions are tentatively due Sunday, January 13th, 23:59 EST.
