Feed N (Whenever a creature dealt damage by this creature dies, put N +1/+1 counters on this creature)
Worship by Gelectrode
Worship (Whenever another creature enters the battlefield, if this creature has not previously worshipped another creature, you may have this creature worship that creature. If you do, that creature gets +1/+1 for as long as you control this creature.)
Despise by Gelectrode

AUTHOR'S NOTE : Has bonuses against despised creatures.
Spoils of War by ZendikarIncarnate
Spoils of War (Whenever a creature dealt damage by this creature this turn dies, you may search its controller's library for an artifact card and put it onto the battlefield under your control. If you do, that player shuffles his or her library.)

Rebirth by Suicidal_Deity
Rebirth [cost] (When this creature dies in combat, you may pay its rebirth cost. If you do, return it to the battlefield tapped at the beginning of the next end step.)
Rhapsody by Suicidal_Deity
Rhapsody (Whenever this creature attacks, you may tap or untap another target permanent for each Song attached to this creature.)
AUTHOR'S NOTE : Songs were tribal enchantments I made. Auras and regular enchantments. Usually resulting in board wide buffs or debuffs.
Soul Sibling by Latinas
Soul Sibling [Cost] (When this creature enters the battlefield, you may pay its Soul Sibling cost. If you do, put a token that's a copy of it onto the battlefield except for Soul Sibling ability.)
Preserve by seaspray4TF3
Preserve (When this creature enters the battlefield, you may exile a land you control. When this creature leaves the battlefield, return the exiled card to the battlefield under its owner's control.)
And three additional mechanics selected for this challenge. Two returning and one new!
Binary by Beeswax
Binary (Whenever you cast a spell, switch this permanent between on and off. It starts on.)
Repair by Darkray
Repair [Cost] (At the beginning of your end step, sacrifice this permanent unless you pay its repair cost.)
Warp by Faiths_Guide
Warp (When you draw this card you may reveal it from your hand. If you do sorcery spells have flash until end of turn.)
(Don't know why this is so satisfying.)
XD
EDIT: Apologies for the question, new here.
Yes it will. Oh, and Welcome to the Forums!
(No need to ever apologize for asking a question around here.)
Well that's fantastic, because I believe I will most probably have a lot.
Speaking of which, here's another one:
If I'm not sure of the wording or balance of my cards, do I just post them here and ask for people's opinions? Or should I do that elsewhere..?
Thank you for your kindness
I'd suggest that you always leave one comment on each new card you make (you'll need a Disqus account). Then you'll be notified if someone responds. In that comment you can ask whatever you want!
However, you're always welcome to ask opinions here or anywhere. Also, feel free to PM anyone on the site; practically anyone here is happy and willing to lend a hand when able!
No need for thanks, but, you're welcome!
Binary and Warp
Very nice use of Warp!
Rebirth and Repair
I would have used Rebirth, but the wording was too long.
Honestly probably should be {1}{w} or maybe even a {w} 1/2
