MTG Salvation

Quote from Shadowfate

A creature that you've unearthed will never "die." For a creature to die it means it went from the battlefield to the graveyard. Unearth replaces leaving the battlefield for any reason other than exile by exiling the creature.

When she kills a creature it is.

Quote from Felllix

Eliza herself (her? her.) is pretty confusing. The abilities don't seem connected, especially since it triggers on both creatures you don't control and creatures you've unearthed.

Her desperation is a strictly-better Advent of the Wurm, in colors that don't create creature tokens and fairly rarely get flash (or instant-speed creature token creation anyway). The first line also needs to be a triggered ability, not part of the card text. See Temporal Extortion for an example of this template. Overall, I'm not crazy about either of these.

Should her ability only trigger on one of them?

The desperation is based off of the story, she summons a giant dragon made of bones and fire (the creature token) and threatens to have it kill off both her, Sedris, and both their armies. That's where I got the abilities from. Have any suggestions for it?

Alara was my favorite block in cards and story. Out of all the shards Grixis was my favorite (along with UBR being my favorite color combo) so I am going to make some new cards that fit with Alara (specifically Grixis.) These are my first two.
I used this article to help make the cards http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/stf/9

Eliza of the Keep UBBR

Legendary Creature- Human Wizard

Deathtouch, haste

When a creature dealt damage by Eliza, or a creature you unearthed dies, exile it. Then you may return target creature from your graveyard to your hand.
Unearth UBR

3/1


Also

Eliza's Desperation 1BBR
Instant
Any opponent may skip his or her next turn. If he or she does, counter Eliza’s Desperation.
Put a put a legendary 5/5 black and red Elemental Dragon Skeleton creature token with flying and “When this creature attacks destroy all other creatures” named Eliza’s Dragon onto the battlefield.

Can anyone help me balance them and check my wording?
Also tell me what you think.

Sweet, I don't know I kinda like your's better. I'll use both mwahaha >=]

Only problem, wrong kind of ecstasy. I was refering to the emotion not the drug.

Sorry for the double post but I forgot to check include signature lol

Wanted to show you I am giving credit.

Don't worry about it, it doesn't seem arrogant at all to want credit for your work.

I really like it =]

Even though you couldn't fit Necropotence that is really good. Thanks so much.

Hello I'm looking for a nice new signature with the pictures of the following;
Havengul Lich
Alpha art Dark Ritual
From the Vault art Necropotence
Graveborn art Animate Dead
Graveborn art Cabal Therapy
and finally Shared Trauma

The can be in whatever order they look best in. The only other thing is I want the words "In death lays ecstasy, in undeath lays immortality" on it somewhere.

Quote from Basic Land Collector

Is anyone else bummed that we're probably going to see the same basics they've already reprinted six or seven times again (Grixis)?

I doubt it considering the deck is mono-black except for the reanimation targets. I doubt they would print 24ish lands with just 2 arts.

Ouirnar the Benevolent Body 4W
Legendary Creature--Shaman
Defender, Lifelink
Cycling 2B
When you cycle ~ put Ouirnar's Malevolent Essence (Token) onto the battlefield and you gain 5 life.
6/10

Ouirnar the Malevolent Essence
Legendary Creature--Shaman Spirit
Unblockable
When ~ dies return Ouirnar the Benevolent Body onto the battlefield
5/4

Next: a WUBG Graveyard based commander

Wizards stole Sheoldred and Skinshifter from me =(

Two weeks before Sheoldred was spoiled I played a trick on my brother saying she was and told him she was 3BBB for a 6/6 Intimidate, at the begining of your upkeed each player sacrifices a creature then put a creature from your graveyard onto the battlefield.

As for Skinshifter a while ago I made a cool vampire card.
Alucard's Chosen 2B
Creature-- Vampire
0: Alucard's Chosen becomes your choice of a 2/2 Wolf with Haste and First Strike
a 1/1 Bat with Flying and B: gets +1/+1 until eot, or a 1/8 Fog with defender, infect and flying.

Good lord that black ability of Depth and Emptiness is ridiculous maybe even too powerful (Is that possible on a color sword?)

It is really cool though and would be a nice sword for control.

Sound and Silence is golden, I think it is powerful enough without being to ridiculous.

Freedom and Prosperity... To put it bluntly kill Prosperity's ability somehow. That is way too good with planeswalkers. Maybe make it add one or not affect loyalty counters but do something to it.

I'm making a set of cards that me and my friends are going to make proxies of to use in commander. I just wanted to see if anyone thinks this keywork is fair.

Undying {cost}: When this creature is destroyed you may pay {cost}, if you do return it to the battlefield at the beginning of the next end step.

The Undying costs will not be to big, this is the first card I made with it, and my commander for my "custom" deck;

Rikiaz, King of Worms 2GUBB
Legendary Creature- Zombie Wizard
Dredge 7, Undying GUB
B, T: Return target creature card in a graveyard to the battlefield, it is black and a zombie and gains haste. Destroy it at the beginning of the next end step.
7/6

I've been thinking of making a reanimator variant of a self-mill dredge deck in standard. It's based on Grimgrin's amazing synergy with Reassembling Skeleton.

So far it is as follows.


As for the lands I'm leaning towards 24 or so mosty duals if I can afford them or be lucky enough to pull them. The only problem is I'd need to cut 3 cards and I don't know what to cut. probably the Revivals because there isn't much that isn't just as good in the grave as in my hand.

I like my idea best. Run both in a Sedris zombie-tribal deck. You get the awesomeness of Sedris and his unearth ability to play a crapton zombie then sac all of them to Grimgrin, powering up himself and Thrax then unearth what you can and sac again, and swing with two huge Zombie legends.
