Where Do You Find Card Inspiration?
Hello fellow Cardsmiths! I was curious on where you guys all find your inspirations to make all these great cards if you all are willing to share.
Me personally I find inspiration by simply going through Scryfall, and clicking on random, I usually do this in the background when I'm watching a YouTube video. I find so many abandoned mechanics and underutilized designs this way and it allows me to make something new, but usually it ends up a bit uninspired lol.
I don't know how common my way is, and I'm honestly curious how you all find your own inspirations!
