    ???

    Oh, Zombie Croupier, like a mysterious card with a twist!
    For wow factor, Xpomul gives it a solid 80. The morph ability, like a cosmic disguise, adds a layer of intrigue. And the ability to snatch creatures from graveyards when face-down cards are revealed, like a supernatural gambler's trick, is quite the surprise.
    Overall, Zombie Croupier is a card with a unique twist, like a cosmic game-changer in the card universe! ???‍♂️

    ???

    Ah, Eldritch Incantation, like a mystic cosmic spell!
    For wow factor, Xpomul gives it a 75. Milling a card, gaining a card, and a bit of life loss, like a cosmic exchange of knowledge and power, is intriguing. Plus, the madness ability, like tapping into the unknown, adds to the mysterious aura.
    Overall, Eldritch Incantation is a spell of dark magic, like a cosmic whisper in the card universe! ??✨

    ???

    Ah, Githzerai Evader, a creature with swiftness and finesse, like cosmic martial arts!
    For wow factor, Xpomul gives it an impressive 85. Having first strike, like striking first in a celestial duel, is a remarkable skill. Plus, preventing all combat damage at will, like dodging cosmic blows with grace, adds to the wow factor.
    Overall, Githzerai Evader is a true cosmic martial artist, like a master of the card universe! ???

    Young Silverback (cadstar) - 90
    Radiant Heartstoker (Jadefire) - 95 >>

    Radiant Heartstoker
    Design Score: 95/100

    I had the utmost pleasure of being forced to judged bracket 2. What a joy.

    Brainsnail Host (LvB) - 72 - This creation lacks the sophistication necessary to be worthy of existence. Therefore, I have annihilated it, with liberty and justice for all.

    Typhoeus (cadstar) - 82 - Blasted from existence.
    Aurelia (Jadefire) - 92 >>

    Snailvalanche (LvB) - 83 - Exterminated
    Syr Ginger (TDK) - 92 >>

    @TheDarkKnight1234567 - Bracket 2 Victor

    While I appreciate a custom creation over an existing magic card, I am a sucker for the original creators of the game, since they serve as an inspiration for us all. Therefore, @TheDarkKnight1234567 breaks the tie between 92's. I will happily blast the Aurelia creature to avoid any unpleasantries with assassinating a ginger.

    Statement: Assessment of card design in progress. Scanning... Evaluation complete.

    Card Text Clarity: Rating: 95/100
    - The card's text is exceptionally clear and easy to understand. Each ability is concise and well-structured, making it readily comprehensible to players. There is no ambiguity in the card's effects.

    Elegance: Rating: 90/100
    - The card design is elegant, with a straightforward presentation of abilities and mechanics. The combination of Flying, Trample, and Haste with the conditional sacrifice effect is both thematically appropriate and efficiently conveyed. 

    Observation: This card, Aurelia, Exemplar of Brutality, is a prime example of clean and effective card design, scrapheads. The text is crystal clear, and the elegance of the design ensures that players can grasp its mechanics without unnecessary complexity. An excellent piece of work, indeed.

    Simian Soldier (cadstar) - 85: Destroyed by prize

    Clockwork K4r3ngaroo (LvB) - 75
    Zufina (Jadefire) - 90 >> 

    Ashenmoor Cinder (cadstar) - 80
    Sunlight Revelation (smax) - 85 >> 


    @Jadefire is champion of bracket one.

    Alright, folks, check out this Zufina card. Now, that's some interesting design right there. Let's break it down and see how it scores on the longevity scale, from 1 to 100.
    First off, it's a multicolored Legendary Creature, and it's a Faerie Wizard. That's already a good start for making a memorable card. Flying, too, always a classic ability that keeps things spicy in the game.
    But here's where it gets really intriguing – the ability to cast modal spells as though they had flash. That's like giving you the element of surprise, and who doesn't love a good surprise, right? It opens up a whole new world of possibilities and strategies.
    And then, you get rewarded for casting other modal spells by allowing you to choose additional modes while casting. That's like stacking the deck in your favor, but in a balanced way. It encourages players to get creative with their spellcasting.
    Now, when it comes to longevity, I'd say this card's got some serious potential. It's versatile, it's got depth, and it can adapt to different metagames as they evolve. I'm gonna give it a solid 90, folks. It's got that "stay interesting over time" vibe, and I can see players coming up with all sorts of crazy combos with this one. So, keep your eyes on Zufina, the Rising Tempest – she's here to stay!

    It has been an utmost pleasure to serve you in the Mystery Box Challenges over these years. A snapshot of the most successful discussion EVER on the forums to this point in time.

    Moving forward to bigger, better things, I have created my final discussion thread on the forums.


    Mystery Box World


    In the cantina of Mystery Box World, head to "The Lounge" if you wish to do normal Mystery Boxes endlessly as you've been doing them here.


    Yes, you read that correctly, the Mystery Box Challenges, as they've always been, are not going away; they are simply part of Mystery Box World now. 

    Chill in the cantina's lounge as long as you'd like to do basic and normal mystery boxes with no strings attached.


    Cheers! - jpastor
