I want some gamble cards in the set I'm working now. So I want some ideas from you! Good cards will be added to the set.
What are gamble cards? Let me show you some examples.

Be careful about not to break the color pie. Flipping coins and choosing something random are always seen in back and red.
But if you have ideas that features gamble effect in white, blue, green color pies, that's ok.
I wanna see what you guys are capable of. Good luck! Let’s have fun!

EDIT: Also, I'm not sure if the name fits with the art and card itself.

No. A gamble card would be like the cards Tomi linked at the top. Dice roll, random permanent destruction, and luck of the draw - draw something big, take big damage.

3rd Place. “Jalira’s Cape” by milanaarz
http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/jaliras-cape?list=user#.VTMOkEvY91M
Permanent version of "Polymorph"! This is so fun and very gamblish! And I like its trigger condition. It makes a game more aggressive and exciting!
2nd Place. “Valandor, Riskful Strategist” by SirWarriorLegend
http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/valandor-riskful-statagist-2?list=user#.VTMOe0vY91M
This Gamble is big. If you lose the coin flip, you must sacrifice your creature. But White and Black color have many graveyard mechanic. If you build a right deck for this card, he can be literary a strategist.
1st Place : “Midnight Oil” by Beeswax

You never cease to amaze me Beeswax. Very unique and ambitious as always! He did even calculate the probability. Guys, you must it check out.
Congrats for winners! To people who didn’t win, I truly enjoyed all of your cards. Some of the reasons that they didn’t win are the mater of playability, creativity, color pie, or card power balance. However, I would like to add some cards you made for this challenge to the collaboration set named Politik. I might add a small editing.

If you are ok, I might add a small editing. If you don’t like your cards to be added or edited, just let me know.
Thank you for all participants! This challenge is closed. It was very fun to hosting this! Thanks again!
