    I have lived in Japan for over nine years, and when I think of the Mafia, Yakuza come to mind. I hope you don't mind that is what I interpreted.

    Yakuza are a form of mafia, so that would count. Thanks for the entry!
  • Honorary kingpin of the land! XD

  • The people are sick of this Mafia regime. It's time for a new leader!

  • This seems like an interesting challenge. I'll enter soon =)
  • Old card. It fits for one of many mafia activities.

    Is this random enough? Did I go to far? XD (This is a bump while I find more relevant stuff that is censored.)

    This is a permission commander. It isn't obnoxiously oppressive because counterspells are bad in edh. It would be super strong in standard but the three colors means it's a build around, and the smaller card pool means you can prep for it. In modern, probably way too slow, and the resources you need to stall it out make it not worth it even when it drops.

    This is really similar to Rousing of Souls but more mafia.

    Vehicles are probably my favorite cards to design nowadays. This is a really aggressive two drop either way, but you'd only really play it with red or black. In standard, this might be a 3 or 4 of in any aggro deck. In modern, this might be able to find a spot in a swiftspears or young pyromancers deck. Not really playable in anything else.

    What I imagine youth is like these days in such a gangster-like world.

    Yes, with the music as well.
