Congratulations to Dragoon26 for winning March's FCC with this card and cycle:
NethergateBBB
Enchantment
At the beginning of each player’s upkeep, that player discards a card. 4BB: Return target creature card from your graveyard to play. Play this ability only if Nethergate is in your graveyard. "Our worlds are closer than you think." — Sargos the Fallen
Congratulation! I love Nethergate of coarse, but I was wondering about the rest of the cycle. I found out that Abrorb technically doesn't work for players, and also the green one is busted with en-Kor schenanigans. I'm not trying to rain on your parade because I really feel had the best card of the round, but I think the rest of the cycle have issues.
Negativity aside, I like how Nethergate plays off itself. It wouldn't be a bad idea to run 3 or 4 of this card in a deck, playing the first one and discard the others to the first one's effect. Tripple black isn't hard to pull off in multicolor decks since Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth so it's not hard at all to see how a Nethergate deck might work.
Yeah, like I said, I changed every card in that cycle so many times, it was ridiculous. I just couldn't come up with something cool and unique for each card and time was running out. I knew I wanted to submit the black one, but I hated making 4 crappy cards to support it... oh well. That was a tough round. I did like the blue one, but I thought losing a bonus point from each judge was too much, so I didn't submit that one.
Asking out a girl is like trying to cast a first turn Necropotence. Sometimes the other player will have the Force of Will to say no. You shouldn't let that stop you from trying it.

I'm loving Ravenwood Archive's main ability, and also Divine Focus's. Both are really neat ideas that are very different from anything done before. Doesn't Spellbane's Essence go infinite pretty quick with Outrider en-Kor, though?
Yeah, I forgot about the en-Kor when I made that one... I really had intended for it to mainly trigger off your opponent, so I probably should have included "...a spell or ability you don't control..."

I like this card - one of the best FCC ideas in a while.
The rest of the cycle's not as bad as you're making out either. The White and Green ones are both a bit broken, but not ridiculously so.

Divine Focus and Composite Golem from Xth edition is an standar 2cards infinite combo that provides u infinite mana of any one color other than white. Correct me if I'm wrong, but did not u said that those things are unnacceptable, Kraj?
Delayed congrats 2 u Dragoon26 (this is the first time I check march fcc ^^)
