    Mode 3: Moshpit (Winner takes all!)

    Everyone will get the same challenge. The best entry submitted prior to the next batch of boxes will win all prizes. Everyone else walks away with nothing.

    My grading criteria revolves moreso around appearance, structure, grammar, and uniqueness of artwork, originality of the idea of the card, etc. I'm not the best judge of color identity / color pie adherence nor am I the best at judging the balancing of a card. Don't ignore color pie or balancing, but don't rely on me to dissect your mechanics to a dime. Your best bet is to come up with an idea that is original, make it look unique and let it make sense with the given challenge.

  • @jpastor, does the ability need to be keyworded?
  • @Ranshi
    Any custom keyword or combat ability. Feel free to refer to the mechanix encyclopedia for inspiration.

  • @jpastor, does that mean I could effectively use something from the mechanix encyclopedia but without the keywording of it?
