@Gelectrode "Whenever" should be replaced with "If". How about "Innovate N (If this creature would deal combat damage, you may exile the top N cards of your library instead. If you do, you may cast those cards until end of turn.)"? I think it makes easier to make balanced cards with that mechanic. Just my idea. And the last effect should say "When Sagacious Steam-Mage dies, discard your hand, then put all cards you own exiled with it into your hand." Otherwise you can put cards you don't own to your hand if an opponent has cast Act of Treason or something to it and exiled their top cards.
Hi all, I don't create cards much anymore. However, I just made my first card in roughly a month. Homodeus is a custom creature type. They are colorless but require colored mana to be cast. Thoughts please on the creature identity and the Ally mechanic.
Rampage (2018) Movie Card all smiles from me on the intentional mechanic rulebreaking I did here. They are Mutants so I can break whatever rules I want #Eatmyshorts.
@Faiths_Guide I’d probably have creatures attacking lose flying or have it gain reach. @Scott_Anderson I like the concept, but the name is Bad Manners? Maybe Toxic Infussion? @jpastor I like it, but ug isn’t really the indestructible giver. Keep the 4/5 to one ability. Probably trample.
@shadow123 thank you for looking and giving me your opinion.
It looks like Taz can be assigned as an attacker and then returned to your hand, at which point it bounces a creature. I think this is fair, because it has summoning sickness in between. It's a little fairer than Capsize for instance.
I don't think it needs to be mythic, but mythic is perfectly OK.
@gelectrode thank you. Even though Wizards is not a big fan of land destruction, I like it as a control strategy. So I occasionally play in that design space.
@Faiths_Guide Why not make the activated ability {b/r} and have it be if you win the flip, all creatures get +1/+0 UEOT. Losing the flip = all creatures get -0/-1 UEOT.

Thoughts ?
He appears to be the top of the curve in a very low-down red aggro or a utility guy in a 5c midrange aggro similar to Modern humans.
My brain hasn’t cooked any ideas up for your cyborgs but I am thinking.
Sagacious Steam Mage probably needs a bit lower power, but, I like him!

@Scott_Anderson, bad manners is a strictly worse Contaminated Ground. You can up the power level if you want.
@Faiths_Guide, clever design, albeit with a clunky name. Might I suggest Dusksnare (or Dusk-Snare) Spider?
Thoughts y'all?

Here is Port Blockade: https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/port-blockade
How is this one?

Thoughts, comments, complaints?
It could be worded like this:
When another creature dies, put a bone counter on this creature.
{t}, Remove X bone counters from this creature, choose one:
*Create X black 1/1 Skeleton creature tokens.
*Create an blue X/X Skeleton creature token.
*This creature gains indestructible for the next X turns.
Yes it should have reach!
@Gelectrode
Thanks for the name suggestion!

Another possibility!
