Rolled 1 or 2: Flash (You may cast this spell any time you could cast an instant.)
Rolled 3 or 4: Convoke (Your creatures can help cast this spell. Each creature you tap while casting this spell pays for 1 or one mana of that creature's color.)
Rolled 5 or 6: Dethrone (Whenever this creature attacks the player with the most life or tied for most life, put a +1/+1 counter on it.)
Just as for the last challenge there will be prizes for this one each week. Sometimes including premium subscriptions!
If anyone feels this challenge is too difficult due to being designed to work with all card types, you may do the following one as practice.

As well as promoting this contest. XD
Twin Nations Contest: Custom Commanders
(Don't worry KJMartin, amplify will be in a future week.)
5, 4, 5, 1. Oh great sideboard...
You're funny. There's a dice in the main post, here's a link! Remember it could also be a tech card that is main-boarded as mentioned above. (Very common occurence!)
Roll the Dice
well that dice roll was Pain!
well here it is:
Sidenote: due to the rather convoluted mechanic of the game now, I am kind of confused on how it works, so I hope this is right.
Black, instant/sorcery, tempo/aggro, flash.
Just one question. How the heck do I incorporate flash?
If there is anything that I can clarify better, please mention so.
I made this version of the dice roll so that we can make non-creature cards as well. Which wasn't supported much in the past dice roll challenges!
Make the spell have flash under a certain condition while making its card type as a Sorcery.
Here are some examples. (Not as entries!)
A blue tempo sorcery with flash. Lets go.
Not too happy with this. How many entries per person?
As many as you like. (Updated challenge description to match!)
It's a very cool enchantment. I'll be uploading another enchantment with dethrone tomorrow to bump this challenge. (Anticpation! XD)
Yep, the rules aren't to specific because there not meant to be strict.
Green, Instant/Sorcery, Tech/Sideboard, Dethrone
Lifegain's, anti-dethrone, sideboard, super-tech!
A green enchantment that supports dethrone, this one being a tech card. The card demonstrates that even odd rolls are plausible but require extra creativity!
This card was inspired by the following videos. (Short lengthed video!)
Anime Mix AMV ♫ Paranoia
& Twisted Metal: Head-On - Grasshopper's Ending
Decided on reach due to it making more sense tribe-wise, especially as a tech card.
Thank you, I'll make the change momentarily. I really wasn't sure, so I'm glad someone could help decide!
Anyways, 5-1-3-4: A green creature with convoke for late-game stuff.
This is the kind of card I'd assume a green "control" deck would use to turn the tides and end the game. Also, I've never been good at balancing costs, and convoke makes it tricky.
