Two new mechanics: Concoct and Alchemy! Concoct: Create a colorless Potion artifact token with, "Potion: Discard a card," and "Sacrifice this token: Target opponent discards a card." Alchemy: Whenever you pay a Potion cost, {effect}.
Credit to @Class for the basis of Morbid Alchemist's flavor text; I liked the idea and wanted to improve upon it.
@MagicChess oh thanks it's not necessary but thanks anyways people tell me I am a creative writer so what better way to spend a weekend but I do like how you took it one step further
@Class, thanks! Anybody have good art of a wizard or something wearing a cloak with a hood? Kind of mysterious-y? (I'm not going to say any more than this, but it has to do with this contest.)
My newest Alchemist (a play on Nicholas Flamel): http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/bremen-the-eternal Unfortunately, I couldn't make the token because the token maker only allows 12 characters in the name.
@Class, I really like the idea! There are a couple flaws that I want to point out, though... First, the Concoct ability makes a generic Potion that makes an opponent discard a card. I like the idea of a sort of "Freeze" potion, so I think that you should reword it to have the card make a potion token that does that same thing. Last, and least importantly, the Alchemy mechanic is supposed to be:
Alchemy- Whenever you pay a potion cost, {effect}.

Your Morbid Alchemist flavor text is almost the same as mine
Fixed now!

you can legitimately add the word fantasy art to anything and find something card worthy
@MagicChess ok I was about to search it anyway. what do you think of the picture
