    Grammar help please!

    Recast 2BG (When you cast a spell with the same name as this card, you may pay the recast cost. If you do, cast this without paying its mana cost.)

    I'm almost sure I have the wording correct, I think the last sentence needs a little bit of help here Slant

    I like it. Has some potential to be broken, but nothing obvious that I can see. Mildly amusing that you tie up your elephant allies at the end of the day :p Not sure why one would need a hitching post for an elephant either, pretty sure an elephant goes where it wants too.

    Elf tribal land. Quite honestly, not all that exciting. Probably could've been an uncommon due to the counter limit. At rare, I'd expect a repeatable regeneration clause. Perhaps "1G, :symtap:, Regenerate target elf. Only use this ability if you control 3 or more elves."

    I feel like you're trying to do too much on one card. First off, your creatures shouldn't be able to attack or block, their in a shelter in the ground (or, it makes my horde of 1/1's a perfect blocking wall). Also, if I attack with everything but the creature equipped with this shelter, I can then tap the creature with the shelter to make all my attackers indestructable. The CC cost and equip cost should probably be more 4/4 or 5/5. Pick one, the coverted mana cost or the creature type, one or the other, both is just a mental bog to read. Also, darksteel items themselves are indestrucable, they don't grant it to other things (except for Darksteel Forge), go read flavor. Also (and I'm well aware that I am the pot calling the kettle black here), Darksteel is Mirriden in origin.

    I like this, it's simple and concise. Lack of rarity makes this card hard to judge, but I'd say it would be fair at a rare level.

    This seems like it might be edging towards microtext due to the amount of flavor text. The flavor text itself seemed a little disconnected. "What does fruit have to do with the druid?" was the first thing that popped into my head. Aside from that, this seems to be a balanced card.

    I like it, but if you were aiming to model exactly from the flavor of the area, you missed the danger part. This card does have some potential to be broken (Scapeshift), but not too much. I might bump this up to mythic rarity due to the lack of a drawback.

    Good concept, but it triggers off itself. I don't really think this needs to be a tribal artifact, but as it is worded currently, you could've just written, "Whenever...Use this ability at any time you could use an instant."

    [spoiler=Favorites, I pick them]
    1) Maokun
    2) Gerrard's Mom
    3) Koopa
    [/spoiler]
    I choose these three based off of simplicity, synergy with avatar and several other factors (one of which may have been my own amusement).

    Oh yes, I'd like to apologize for not providing a render or cleaning up my final entry any, I haven't had steady internet access for the psat three days and won't until Wednesday at the earliest.

    Team Murasa:

    The heat is unbearable from the lava pools that aren't even anywhere near you, you're likely to die from being exposed too long. Furthermore, the currents of the lava rivers could at any moment change and simply engulf you're camp.

    Hmmm...do ninjas even need rest? In any case:


    Shinobi Outpost
    Land (U)
    ~ enters the battlefield tapped.
    :symtap:: Add blue mana or black mana to your mana pool.
    UB, :symtap::Return target creature you control to its owner's hand. That player then discards a card.
    There's a reason ninja are never surprised.

    Survival Kunai 3 mana
    Artifact - Equipment
    Equipped creature gets +1/+1 and ":symtap:: Return this creature to its owner's hand."
    Equip 2 mana


    Shielding Cloak 3 mana
    Artifact - Equipment
    Equipped creature has ":symtap:: Prevent all damage that would be dealt to this creature."
    UU: Attach Healer's ~ to target creature you control.
    Equip 3 mana

    Equipped creature gets +3/+3.
    When the equipped creature deals combat damage, destroy all lands.
    Whenever ~ is equipped to a creature, destroy target land.
    Equip 9 mana

    Next: Something that is on fire and shoots lightning bolts.

    Nope, these are completely different things. The first trades a color for another color, and puts a land into play.
    The other just fixes the colors.

    I'm the Z zapper. I zap Z's. I really don't like Z's. I just don't. I mean, who needs them? Z's. pfffft.


    Love it! Thanks!

    I'd like to just say to a couple of people reviewing my cards, thank you for your imput, I really do value it, that Ninjitsu meshes quite well with the ally theme because when you use the Ninjutsu ability, it triggers all the ally abilities. I've seen a couple people either miss this connection, or are confused about how these two things interact, but it does work like this...I think...XP

    And for everyone missing the blue element of Oboro's Exile, well:
    Oboro Envoy
    Bewilder
    Constricting Tendrils
    Disorient
    Dizzy Spell
    Fleeting Distraction
    Morphling

    To name a few. -X/-0 is a common enough blue theme for this card to be blue.
