I apologise if my comment launched a riot here. I don't know what happened, because I couldn't look at the comments before they have been deleted, but sorry for any unnecessary complications I may have brought here.
Hello! This is my very first Mechanix Challenge, so I thought I would take a stab at making a Bloom card and a Craft card. Bloomstag is inspired by territorial gorger from Kaladesh, one of my favorite cards in the set. I wanted to make something somewhat simmilar that played differently, and I think I did well with this card. Bloomstag's flavor text applies that it is Storm Crow's opposite (Read the 9th edition storm crow flavor text and you will see what I mean). Hang with me for a minute, Shulker attack is a weird one. Shulker attack was desinged to emulate fighting shulkers in Minecraft. Here is a clip of one of my favorite youtubers fighting shulkers when they were first released ().
So essentially, when shulker hits you, you start to float up into the air (Gain flying until end of turn). But what happens when you don't have any handy, dandy chorus fruit to save you (like your creatures won't)? You fall down! In minecraft, whenever you fall, you take fall damage. Take too much fall damage and you die. The effect on the enchantment hopes to emulate that, as it is able to kill most humanoid creatures, which have less "Health" than bigger creatures.
***EDIT*** Thought I should add, Shulkers only have reach so that new players won't get confused (When the creature Shulker Tokens block gains Flying, some newer players may think that the creature the shulker token blocked becomes unblocked. This is not the case, though). It also added a tiny bit more versatility to the shulkers.
Who can figure out whom this flavor text is referencing? This card is a counterspell to help end counter wars before they start. Pretty simple concept, good in real control decks.

Anyways, top-down design for Mine and for Bloom:

I apologize for this gigantic wall of texts. Still not sure if this should be a serious entry or not.
