  • posted a message on [New Mechanic]: Valiance
    I was developing an I-stand-alone ability word a while back that I made too complicated, but could be simplified to work for you, so let's call it valiance:

    Valiance — As long as ~ is the only tapped or only untapped creature you control, [effect].

    The idea is that the creature is rewarded for either a) daring to attack alone, or b) daring to stay on defense alone. It will always be in effect as long as you only control one creature.

  • posted a message on 10 Commons from My Colonization Set: Batch One (Please Help)
    Hello everyone. I've been working on the commons for my colonization set for a bit now and I finally have them all "done," but I'm sure a lot of them need a lot of work, so I'm going to post a batch of 10 every day or two to workshop them.

    ONE NOTE: I realize this may rub some people the wrong way, but I am choosing to mostly ignore the complexity limit for commons. This is a project I'm really just doing for myself, so I ask that you please keep that in mind in your comments, and not write off any of these as "too complex for common," since I'm not focusing on that at all.

    Magician's Box (2/U)(2/U)(2/U)
    Artifact (R)
    You may look at cards exiled with Magician's Box at any time.
    When Magician's Box enters the battlefield, exile the top three cards of your library.
    At the beginning of each opponent's upkeep, you name a card, then that opponent chooses a card exiled with Magician's Box at random and turns it face-up. If it's the named card, you may play it without paying its mana cost and exile the top card of your library face down. If it's not, turn the chosen card face-down again.

    Am Shegar: Interesting, and I suspect, possibly undercosted, especially for limited. Although, now that I think about it, if you cost it any higher it starts to feel underpowered. It's in a weird middle ground. I do think it's an interesting mechanic and flavorful though.

    SelesnyNewLife: Sure, this makes sense. Although its potential devastation makes me think it should be rare, I think the situational-ness of that power makes this OK. Fun card, good flavor, wheeee.

    iphanx: I like this. It can yell really loud but then it gets tired. I think I would prefer this as an uncommon without hex proof though, which I think you could get away with. A few minor concerns: I think it should just say "you next untag step" and I don't necessary like the hybrid cost for the ability, which feels just blue.

    Cythare: Shmowzow, that's pretty dang strong. I think it should maybe be legendary but other than that I am a big fan of this simple guy. Also lots of roaring.

    Ink-Treader: I'm not sold on this at all. First, it doesn't feel very roar-y to me, even with roar in the name. I'm also generally not a fan on mono colored things that say "share a color with me," and while I get from your IIW that this is designed with color fluctuations in mind, I'd like it better if it just said "blue."

    WINNAR: Cythare
    CHALLENGE: Two colors, two mana

    I also think making it fatespinner and -1 is interesting, consider this as a wording that might be short enough to fit, even if it is kind of unprecedented and thus probably "bad" wording?

    Target player chooses draw step, main phase, or combat phase. That player skips the chosen step or phase until your next turn.
