Clashia - World of the color pie
The color pie... The roots of magic, the very thing it's based on. Each color with it's own tight balance and play style.
But here at magic, we like to exaggerate things. So I made a contest about a plane called Clashia that contains all the colors of magic in a unique balance, where the strategies are HOPELESLLY CLASSICAL FOR THEIR COLOR!
The contest in itself is about crearing a creative, balanced card that fits its color play style extremely well.
White cards have to be about creatures supporting over creatures.
Blue cards have to be extremely confusing, using any mechanic you can get your hands on and cause effects that NO ONE SAW COMING [calm down, hero]!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Black cards have to be extremely sinister and mastermindly at making all your opponet's plans go to waste.
Red cards have to be about causing mindless, absolute, deadly, apocalyptic wanton destruction.
And green cards have to be about letting your creatures grow to ridiculous sizes.
Remember, you are encouraged to get carried away, but remember about balance.
I will be wrapping thigs up the 10 of February, so.... You've got time. Enjoy!

Here's a thing that a black deck might want...
Well done! You are catching one even quicker than I expected. A clarifier - 2-coloured cards are allowed, but that makes it twice as complicated because you have to capture the spirit of both colours, while still remembering about balance. 3-coloured and up cards are not allowed
Step 2 will be about actually creating the lore, and only certain people will be allowed to contribute, and the awards are tied to that:
1st Place will get a follow, 2 favorites of their choice, a favorite of my choice and a right to participate in step 2 (Credited as co-author)
2nd Place will get 2 favorites of their choce, a favorite of my choice and a right to participate in step 2 (Credited as co-author)
3rd Place will get 1 favorite of their choice, a favorite of my choice and a right to participate in step 2 (Credited as co-author)
Honourable mentions will get their entry favorited and a right to participate step 2 up to 5 times (Credited as contributor)
Here's a strange little thing that mixes the destructive chaos of red with the controlled (?) chaos of blue.
Woah! You sure are dedicated to this challenge! Well done!

Great! Exactly what I mean!
