@Hergusbergus, this challenge is mainly a duel between @Faiths_Guide and @nsm91. However, you and any other smith are able to join at any time to submit a counter to one of their cards. Other participating smiths will be awarded prizes for their cards.
So far I've got: 0 Exile artifacts 0 Can't cast on other's turns 0 Punish activated abilities 0 Indestructible legends
Seems like a "Death & Taxes" style commander would like this!
More difficult to attack at all.
Other Legends that'd be in the 99: 0 Kambal, Consul of Allocation 0 Karlov of the Ghost Council 0 Athreos, God of Passage 0 Teysa, Envoy of Ghosts 0 Teysa, Orzhov Scion 0 Thalia, Guardian of Thraben 0 Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim 0 Ghost Council of Orzhova 0 Obzedat Ghost Council 0 Brimaz, King of Oreskos 0 Ravos, Soultender 0 Vish Kal, Blood Arbiter
Great job to everyone! @Faiths_Guide, @nsm91, we'll go one more round of counters before judging. All the rest of you: get your entries in now if you want to win some prizes!
okay so... that one's actually a bit too hard to trump and I don't like remaking or rehashing a card, so I'll use this one which I made last week, hope @MagicChess doesn't mind too much that I had to dig out a recent card rather than make a new one since this card of @Faiths_Guide is kind of hard to deal with if all you may make are creatures.
@Faiths_Guide, @MagicChess That counter doesn't work. "Would destroy" wouldn't work on a creature with indestructible since even though the effect says "destroy" it, it wouldn't be destroyed. Correct me if my wrong
@nsm91 The spell or ability would still "attempt" to destroy and you'd be able to change it to attempt to exile instead (at least, that's my understanding).
If I'm wrong, I'll need to change the wording to: Whenever you cast a spell or activate an ability, you may change its text by replacing all instances of "destroy" with "exile."
My only thought is that magic doesn't gauge "attempts", only effects. The effect wouldn't destroy it so the other effect wouldn't trigger. The second one would definitely work

No, you just weren't listening carefully. XD
is it more like... we post alternative counters to your cards, but the main event is you vs @nsm91 , is that it?
Correct
I'd use this to counter @nsm91 's Tyrant Slayers, might even give @Faiths_Guide an idea for his/her own counter :P
it's not persay a counter in the strictest term of the word, but if it survives, it does get the job done xD

A counter to Tenebria
If there are to be taxes, the Senate must approve them. Otherwise, it's just thief, and thieves go to jail.
[Note: Changed the wording for conciseness and expanded the ability to planeswalkers too. If there is no editing my original version is here]
In a "destroy that worthless permanent" sort of way. XD
Hahah, I was tempted to re-use Tehrikas like 4 times :P

This discussion may help to clarify.
