Vaguely Mentioned Legendaries Challenge (Closed for Entries)
Have you ever seen a card that names a creature or artifact in flavor text, but it is never turned into a card?
That is what this challenge is all about, Kari Zev's card mentions the Dragon's smile? Make it! Agarth is in Ixalan but has not been a card yet? Go for it! To enter, post the card you created and a link to the card that had mentioned it. This contest will end 11/21/2017 where i will pick the top 3 cards based on how well they represent what they should be with the given flavor.
3rd place will get 3 liked cards of their choice.
2nd place will get 5 liked cards
1st place will get 6 liked cards and a follow, if I already follow them, another like.
The rules are the very basic rules, add Cardsmith's commentary rules and we are fine. Also, each indevidual is only allowed 3 entries, so good luck and go searching!

You might want to check the balance on Grete. An above-curve creature with a repeatable, much better Inspired Charge at the same cost is just a little bit too much. Especially when given that this is just a rare legend--even at mythic, she would be broken.
Should I make the card a 3/4 and +2/+1?
Even then, it's a repeatable effect. Maybe 4WW for a normal Inspiring Charge effect, and make her a 5/4 at mythic.

Not sure if this one will count as it's not mentioned on a card, but he is mentioned in two MTG articles located through the following links.
