I've posted about this before. The original Melissa Benson artwork Shivan Dragon will always be my favorite. It was the rare in the very first booster pack I ever bought with my own money. It's hard to describe the importance of that card to anyone that wasn't playing at the time, but if you were in elementary school and had a Shivan Dragon, you were the king of the magic table. I was the envy of all my friends and got tons of trade offers.
I never traded it though. In fact, I didn't even sell it with the rest of my collection when I cashed out of magic when I was in college. It was one of a small handful I kept. I still have that exact piece of cardboard to this day. It's living in the center slot of the second to last page of my binder. I have so many awesome memories around that specific card it's ridiculous.

Target player gets an emblem that says, "Whenever a creature enters
the battlefield under your control, draw a card."
Yee haw!! I guess I asked for it (didn't expect it in the "support thread" though). I think I need some new underwear to go with my new hole...
Huh...I guess I didn't think Fuse was that unclear. You pay the fuse cost for one of them (the other doesn't have to have the fuse ability) and the two creatures become 1 fused creature with every ability that either had before they fused. I was pretty sure the comp rules supported it, but it is kinda funky and I can see how it might mess things up.
I played with a slew of different wordings to make it function and this one seemed the best...any ideas on how to fix it? (not that it matters at this point, but I'm curious)
On a side note...Unfuse breaks them apart. (or just kills them). It's a crazy combat trick/counter-removal spell in a limited enviroment filled with fuse. I have a whole pile of other fuse creatures that make the mechanic a whole lot more relevant, but none of them made it into the 10 preview cards.
The raptor was my LI column card for a while, but it seemed to fit into BOAB. I don't know, I could go either way, you might be right.
Here's my final submission. It's a kinda sloppy, and I already see things I want to change.

Obviously Inspire is totally broken the way it's currently worded. I'd need to change that. On the same topic...my Enchantment and mythic white guy are almost the same card, I don't know how that slipped past my notice.
I would have given the Zocoltian Abomination something other than Intimidate (i had it in my head that it gets better when he fuses to creatures of other colors...but nope, it makes it way worse...gotta love sleep deprivation).
edit: oh yeah...i threw them in card frames with art so I could show my friends and family, i submitted them in the proper text format.
There's a few other things, but anyway, thoughts?
