A Showcase of Kaladesh 2.0
Another set that has been months in the making, I am pleased to announce another rough completion of a set, this time in the form of Kaladesh 2.0, a return to Kaladesh set!
Lore:
During the events of hour of devastation and unbeknownst to the vast majority of the multiverse, an unknown force blinks Kaladesh out of the multiverse. What 250 years on Kaladesh occurs in what seems like only seconds for the rest of the multiverse! After the events of hour of devastation, Chandra planeswalks back to Kaladesh for sanctuary only to find a plane she can hardly recognize as home. Luckily for her, she does find familiar faces even so far in the plane's future. Kept alive and even youthful looking thanks to greatly advanced (and greatly controversial) medical practices, she finds many of her friends on the plane serving in what has simply been called the New Consulate, which replaced Tezzeret's consulate after the revlution. However, she also finds old enemies. Baral has been plotting revenge to take back the Consulate with the help of Kambal and Sram for literally centuries. Now it is up to Chandra to help the New Consulate maintain peace and power in an age of Kaladesh where wars are fought in a digital realm just as much as it is with fists and weapons.
Details:
-Is a large set and the only set in its block. (Henceforth known as Kaladesh 2.0 block)
-Has 264 cards. (15 basic lands, 101 commons, 80 uncommons, 53 rares, 15 mythic rares)
-Features the following mechanics:
o Program: [Text] (Widgets you control have/get [text].)
o Covert—[Cost], discard [cardname]: [Effect].
o Crew [Number] (Tap any number of creatures you control with total power [number] or more: This Vehicle becomes an artifact creature until end of turn.) (Brought back from Kaladesh block and Ixalan block.)
o Energy Counters. (Obtained from card effects and spent as a resource.) (Brought back from Kaladesh block.)
-Contains all the tokens and emblems cards in the set can create.
-Features 5 story spotlight cards to depict key events in the set's lore.
Points of Interest:
-Very heavy artifact subtheme. The set is over 50% artifacts, both colorled and colorless. (And that's if you include basic lands in the set size!)
-Brings back popular characters from Kaladesh block like Pia, Saheeli, and Baral.
-Unique, largely cyberpuk art style and feel not really seen in MTG prior.
-Brings back artifacts lands.
-Finishes the rare dual land cycle started by Nimbus Maze.
-Brings back popular cards from Kaladesh block like Panharmonicon.

*If you're wondering why this takes you to a site other than MTGCS, that is because I actually used another custom card creator, Magic Set Editor, which allows for more customization options and flexibility as far as card design goes.
Feedback, positive or critical, would be greatly appreciated,. Also it would be great if you could help me to catch any spelling or wording errors in the cards. Just let me know in the comments!
Thanks for checking this out!

Thanks so much! Do you have any feedback for the set?
Overall, Nextgen Widget just seems like a mess, because of program being vague, and the flavor text being pretty much nonsensical.
And I'm sorry if im being too nit-picky on this one card.
Okay. Thanks for the clarification.
I know! I used it for Emma Sync!
Actually I think she’s using the old frame, so I need to update her. Good catch!
Thank you so much! Any feedback?
I can see where you're coming from, but then I think it makes program too strong. Plus, I feel like it is most in-flavor to Widgets given their role and function on the plane.
Any other suggestions or feedback for the set?
