An Announcement from Yro (Closed)

Yro · March 2018

My friends,

I received word this morning that I will be returning to Japan for work. I'll be gone 6 months to a year depending on a few things. I leave in 2 weeks. I am relatively new to these forums, but it's been super fun and I don't know if I'll be able to keep up whilst in Japan. As such I am passing along my idea of daily, weekly, and monthly challenges to my helpful friend James on these forums. He introduced me to these forums and worked for me in real life.

One last going away challenge for you.

Create a card with a Japanese theme to it. It's okay to be a bit stereotypical here, no worries. Celebrate other cultures, wooh!
Unlimited entries

Rewards:
- 5 favorites of your choice to the best card featuring Mount Fuji in the artwork
- 5 favorites of your choice to the best card featuring a Ninja, anime character, or Gojira

Deadline is March 31st at 11:59

I wish you luck in Japan @Yro! It was a pleasure to smith cards with you on MTGCardsmith.

Thoughts on a new mechanic?

Look him up Tokugawa Ieyasu was a real life trooper!

Modeled in the vein of 2 ability planeswalkers that cardsmiths (like @Tomigon for example) have created.

Good luck and be safe in Japan my friend.

My girlfriend visited Japan for two weeks last summer, then she enlightened me about their culture. These next cards have Japanese roots. I hope you like them!

Godspeed, @Yro.

^Nerdy district in Tokyo.

^Vending machines and convenience stores are everywhere in Japan!

^Inspired by a movie called Lost In Translation.

And these are old cards:

^Japanese people love sakura.

^In traditional Japanese aesthetics, Wabi-sabi (侘寂) is a world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection... - Wikipedia

^These are cards I made with @KalamMekhar.

Wait, are you @senbonzakura? Cuz some of these don't say Tomigon.

Faiths_Guide · March 2018

@Yro
Yup, he is.

Tomigon · March 2018

@Yro sorry for the confusion. senbonzakura is also my account. When i make silver border cards, i basically use that account.

jpastor · March 2018

Shoulda named second account Tomigoon for the silver borders.
