Custom mechanic:
Diplomacy - Starting with you, each player chooses one that hasn't been chosen if able -
There can be any number of modes on a card like this.
Very original idea, but sorry, you made wording mistake.
Check out cards like Fatal Lore, Library of Lat-Nam, Misfortune
http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name=Fatal+Lore
Those modes should be reworded like either of these:
---------
* That player gains 3 life.
* Each of that player's opponent loses 2 life.
* That player destroys a tapped creature of his or her choice.
* That player sacrifices a creature, then creates two colorless Gold artifact tokens with "{t}, Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color."
---------
..or..
---------
* You gain 3 life.
* Each of your opponent loses 2 life.
* You destroy target tapped creature.
* You sacrifice a creature, then create two colorless Gold artifact tokens with "{t}, Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color."
---------
I raised these two because I don't know which one is what you want to do from the original wording, but I think it's the first one because it's more political.

Still cool though! If you want to enter a new card, you must hurry. Deadline is close!
No. Deadline is 23:59 CST, March 28
I thought the idea of a soldier who "levels up" would be interesting for this sort of challenge. Getting a really good creature for just a couple of turns felt right here.
@Corwinnn @Tomigon You should use it in a future Mechanix challenge!
Yeah that's a pretty cool mechanic!
My very first post!
I used the challenge concept and a somehow-unused cardname to engineer a new take on Living Death. And remember, the order matters! Because if you forget that, you might be making kind of...what's the phrase...?
Wish I could have gotten the art I had envisioned, but, alas, I am but a n00b in a hurry, so a very old, chilling oil painting I found in an image search will have to do.
Welcome to MtGCardsmith! I like traditional art on cards so that's ok, but if you want to find another art, we have tutorial here: http://forums.mtgcardsmith.com/discussion/441/tutorial-selecting-artwork#latest
That's a really good job for the first card!
Excellent choice of artwork. I like oil paintings a lot!

^I didn't expect nonpermanent card entry! And yeah, it's difficult on MtGCardsmith to make "Choose N --" cards look better^^; 2nd mode is color pie break but personally I like it because the card is legendary and it feels very special.
