@chronostrike Piece of advice: look up cards like Flickerwisp, Eldrazi Displacer, Cloudshift, etc. Change the wording of your creation. No offense; I'm just really picky about wording.
@Gateways7 Wait, it had to be a (mythic) rare? Dagnabit!
Okay, so this time, I rolled up Bogardan Hellkite, a card that throws 5 damage around, divided between creatures and players however you like. So, I figured, the best way to make this better is to boost the damage, so I came up with a card that could serve as a damage multiplier. Just be careful, because it's a double-edged sword.
5. @Zanmato with http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/fiery-blast-1, comboed with Furnace of Rath. The reason I liked this card was that it had good synergy with Furnace while having a nice format and flavor - that the pyromancer just hits you before you can respond.
4. @RohanDragoon with http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/eversky-elite, comboed with Mentor of the Meek. The card, although a little bit complicated, had good synergy, relevant art, and good flavor while being completely white.
3. @Animist with http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/escape-to-tomorrow, comboed with Crush of Tentacles. It felt blue, and it was a interesting way to look at a way to dodge Crush on Tentacles - it honestly took me a minute to figure out how it interacted with the card. It felt natural and fun.
2. @klmtg29 with Warden of Growth, comboed with Vorapede. The card itself was the embodiment of the teamwork side of green, and the way it utilized Vorapede's abiity that would have killed it to boost it's other creatures instead was fun and awesome.
AND FINALLY...........................................................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!........................ 1. @Lujukul with http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/pentavite-hivesire comboed with Pentavus. Wow. This card utilized Pentavus's penta-sack ability, because you sacrifice one Pentavite, get the boost, and get 4 more. It basically puts Pentavus onto the battlefield with 5, Sacrifice 1 creature - Put 5+1/+1 counters on this creature. ITS FREAKING AWESOME!
To the winners: You can choose which cards you'd like me to fav, or you could let me choose. You have until June 1st to gove me a response on which favorites, and all things will be fav'd by at least the week after that.
A good night to all, and to all a good night. Wait, what time is it in America again?
@Gateways7 Thanks very much for the contest it was incredibly fun. You can choose which cards you want to like. I don't much care which ones do anymore haha

My card is http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/salvation-incarnate
Pretty obvious, stack your rally triggers so your creatures gain indestructible before you wipe your opponents' fields

It is deliberately less powerful than the equivalent effect on Cloudshift in order to keep the cost down.

Use the mana for it's ability.
Note: I actually really like this contest, as Mark Rosewater says "restrictions breed creativity"
My card: http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/warden-of-growth
It goes infinite if you also have a sac outlet, so not sure if this counts, but if you don't then it's just good value
