Child of Night is significantly better than the poor little cat. You might be amazed at how important Lifelink can be in a format where enchantments stick.
Mossborn RustGG
Enchantment (R)
The t abilities of artifacts can't be used while those permanents have summoning sickness. What value does a mox have to a monkey?
(Wow, that got muddled after I found out that apparently all permanents have summoning sickness, but it really only affects creatures. I hope it still makes sense.)
Screech from the UnderworldBBB
Sorcery (M)
As an additional cost to cast Screech from the Underworld, sacrifice any number of non-token creatures.
For each creature sacrificed this turn, put a number of 1/1 black Harpy creature tokens with flying onto the battlefield equal to your devotion to black. The Rivers That Ring the World are seldom ever not polluted with wretched black feathers.
Roast Baloth2GGGG
Creature — Giant Beast (M)
Trample, hexproof
Whenever Roast Baloth enters the battlefield or attacks, each player puts three 1/1 white Human creature tokens with lifelink onto the battlefield tapped. "And he, he himself...the Gri— I think it's still alive..."
6/6

4/2
Sunhome Skeptic1(R/W)(R/W)
Creature — Human Soldier (U) Allegiance — As long as you control a Gideon planeswalker, Sunhome Skeptic gets +1/+1 and has first strike, vigilance, and haste. "When He arrived, some of us began to realize how ruthless and brutal we'd become in our efforts to enforce Aurelia's laws."
2/2
Winterwood Hugger3(G/U)G
Creature — Treefolk (R)
Winterwood Hugger can block an additional two creatures.
Winterwood Hugger can block creatures with landwalk abilities as though they did not have those abilities.
Whenever a creature blocks or becomes blocked by Winterwood Hugger, tap that creature. It doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step. "Why don't you slow down and show me a bit of your holiday spirit?"
2/7
Nayan Rune-RaiderRGW
Creature — Cat Warrior (R)
Whenever Nayan Rune-Raider attacks, choose one — Nayan Rune-Raider gets +1/+0 and gains double strike until end of turn; or Nayan Rune-Raider gets +4/+1 and gains trample until end of turn; or Nayan Rune-Raider deals 2 damage to target creature defending player controls and you gain 2 life. "Goldmane may not agree with our methods, but we fight to keep what we call balance; no different than him."
1/4
Bizarre OddityUR
Creature - Weird (U)
Whenever Bizarre Oddity becomes the target of a spell or ability, exile it.
At the beginning of your combat phase, return each creature card you own named Bizarre Oddity from exile to the battlefield. Those creatures gain haste until end of turn. "How eerie..." — Professor Strange of North Academy
3/2
Nazcaplasm(G/U)(G/U)(G/U)
Creature - Ooze (R)
Champion a non-Ooze creature
Nazcaplasm can't be blocked.
Nazcaplasm has all abilities of the creature it championed. Some experimental failures are the most promising.
2/2
And there are Modern legal cards that have been printed with and without Modern borders. And there are Pauper legal cards that have been printed as Uncommons and Commons. And players know them all. It's really not that confusing.
And I didn't realize it was permitted to criticize cards before voting befor the day was over. Apparently, it's merely bad forum.
My... apologies? If you consider it bad form, I truly am sorry, but I've always thought of that as the more appropriate thing to do when it came to a concern of function. I'd certainly rather not waste a day because something got muddled.
The reason why it seemed a tad off to me is because, as you've stated, those cards are legal in that they've been reprinted and thus have that sole reason to be usable. Something like a watermark, which would not limit or deny its place in a deck, on the other hand is a tad different.
Golden Gate (Rare)
Land - Gate
Golden Gate enters the battlefield tapped. T: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool. Spend this mana only to pay for casting costs and ability costs of cards with a watermark.
Eh? Watermarks? As in the faded symbol of a guild or the Scars factions? That sounds cute, but it seems a bit murked up considering there are cards, such as Ratchet Bomb, that have been printed with and without watermarks.
Twisted DealUB
Sorcery (U)
Scry 2. Fateseal 2.
You and the opponent you fatesealed each draw two cards. In order to evade the strongarm of Boros authority, guildless thieves of the inner city have taken to a Dimir method of larceny they've dubbed "preemptive burglary."

Heh. Not a problem though. I could've sworn I'd voted, but it must have been lost in the holiday commotion.
Anywho, sounds like a nice update!

Either way, I suppose it was a mistake considering that one land thing would make my card cost 4. :I
Also, I think he might've meant straight-up Eldrazi spells. The Drones are all colored cards.
Your entry just seemed... a little too goofy to me, I guess.
