I wanted to make a card that would be banned, but I wanted to make sure it actually could have seen the light of day if testing with it was improper. (See: Tinker) http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/kenny-mccormick-8?list=set&set=10432 Kenny dies in almost every episode of the hit TV show Southpark. Every time he dies, he just wakes up in his bed the next morning (Except for during the end of season 5 until the last few seconds of season 6 after he died of natural causes). This card would be banned in commander for sure, and may also be banned in a alternate reality modern where birthing pod was still legal. Scratch that, he would probably be banned anyhow. Kenny is an absolute house in standard as well.
I'm really happy (because I want to judge this thing) but really sad (this will take me hours to judge) that this contest is closed. No more entries please! However, you can still put comments, on who you think will win, or stuff like that. Since this will extremely hard to judge, I think this MAY NOT BE READY BY TODAY. Good luck!!!
PS: I think the contest winners will be on this same page, not a different one, so please don't close it yet, @corwinn.
Hello! For this contest, I am finally ready to announce the three winners of this contest plus the fantastic mentionable people with their cards that I really liked or almost got into the top three. Since this contest was very hard to judge, (I had around, like, 50-60 entries) the first, second and third place may not all be around in the favorites, but ones that I really liked. The goal of this contest was to create cards that would be banned, but not super OP, not the second they came out, someone would say, "Sorry. Card banned." You had to make cards that were unique, that pretty much Wizards of the Coast could actually realize there true potential. (Okay. Maybe I'm exaggerating a little). But around like that.
However, I can't wait to actually say the winners of this super-hard-to-judge contest! In first place- Hey, let's instead go from THIRD PLACE, to first place. So, this IS THIRD PLACE, PEOPLE.
In THIRD PLACE, with a fantastic card, is...Wait, I'm trying to find it on the paper that I wrote it on...Oh Yeah! Found it!
So, in third pace, is with the fantastic card that probably @Corwinnn would love, is the card...Squirrelpocalypse, by @Mysterious_Gangsta! (I hope I spelled that right)! With 6 favorites, this card smashed goal of being banned, but not incredibly OP. A little like Planar Cleansing, this card navigated it's way to third place here. Good work, @Mysterious_Gangsta!
In SECOND PLACE, with 13 likes, and you can count me in them, is a card...You just have to love. Being made by the sublime member of Mtgcardsmith, the one called...@Animist! With this fantastic combination of stuff like the actual Mtg card Cataclysm, her card is called Rebrew! Everyone will find that how unique this card is. Put your cards in a big pile? Since when did that come into Mtg? Also, you have to see the flavor text. Loved it!!!!
OOH, MAN. This is going to be hard. So....In first place...Ah. Wait. I have to look it up on my paper. This may take me some time...
5 Minutes Later
OOKAY!!!!! FIRST PLACE NOW!!!! With a huge number of likes, 18 to be precise...which is made the awesome member of Mtgcardsmith...@Strongbelieves!!! The card is a card, called Maturing Eldrazi, made about a year ago, and made accidentally pretty much like it was going to be banned. But not in my contest!!! Towering over many other cards, this card was picked to be number one because of it's sweet flavor!! With a 2/2 Eldrazi, which you do not see a lot, but it gives itself, if you sacrifice an Eldrazi Spawn, Annihilator 2 until end of turn. OP, but clean and unique.
Okay! For a prize! As I said before, there will really be no prize, just the awesomeness of becoming first, second, or third in my contest. However, I will change that!! For first place, I will make a planeswalker card of you, (if that's okay with you) and a follow. For second, I will be making a legendary creature card with your name, (if that is also okay with you), and a follow. For third place, I will make a creature card that has some part of your name in it, (if that is also okay with you), and a follow. If you have any questions, just ask.
Finally, to wrap up my contest: I said I was going to mention the Honorable Mentions! Here are the ten I thought should be here:
Made by @Gelectrode, I really like this card. 10 favorites! Just the one and sad reason I did not pick this card, is that, which is what I said before, it wasn't a super serious card. However, I really like it!! Http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/whelming-wave-of-coke
I'm sorry! I can't fit any more, or my brain will explode!! Congratulations to the winners, @Strongbelieves, @Animist, and last, but not least, @Mysterious_Gangsta! Good job all! (Your cards that I will make for you will come out in a few days).
Nice to work to everyone who entered, and have the most fantastic summer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
