    Mode 3: Art Thou Great?!

    For this quick little mode, you'll need to supply a card for your challenge that uses your own art or the art of another cardsmith.

    @TheRacingTurtle your mystery box contains:
    • A Mystery Challenge: Create an artifact card with small font.
    @AboveAndAbout your mystery box contains:

    • A Big Bomb: You may destroy 2 entries. (Those entries won't be judged.)
    • A Mystery Challenge: Create a Hydra creature card.

  • If I have a mystery box I requested in this thread, would I put the finished card in this thread or the corresponding limited thread?
  • Are they random? The destroyed entries?
  • @AboveAndAbout did you ever think you’d be entrusted with so many explosives in a week? :smile:
  • Mystery Box Deadlines

    @TheDukeOfPork your mystery box contains:
    • A Mystery Challenge: Create a Simic guild card.

    @Yonkers11 your mystery box contains:
    • A Mystery Challenge: Create a black/red hybrid colored land.
    • -OR-

    A Mystery Challenge (Encounters): Create a creature that can Mutate [Optional: and that has lightning its name or artwork.]

    My box also came with much booty.

    God Tablet: You may create a mode. - @jpastor , I read the modes I could find in forums because I can no longer find the list I remember seeing, and design one from there: "But Turtles Aren't For Racing" - Design a (creature subtype) that doesn't include it's (traditional colour identity). For example, design a demon that isn't black.

    Bombs Flying Everywhere: Everyone in this batch gets a bomb.

    Favourites: You may accept 2 favourites of your choice + 3 of jpastor’s choice. - Whatever leaps out at you when you look at my page would be great thanks J.

    Hugs: You get 1 favourite of jpastor’s choice + you may have jpastor donate 3 favourites to any 1 cardsmith of your choice. - Can you send my hugs over @Yonkers11 way.

    Magnifying Glass: When you submit your entry for this challenge, you may have target cardsmith who submitted an entry in small font resubmit it in large font. - It looks like the previous entries in Encounters have all been made with large font already, so I shall let my magnifying glass go unused.

  • Taking on the Conqueror's Boxes, starting with The Knight's Templar Box - Create an Assembly-Worker artifact creature card or create a card that creates Assembly-Worker artifact creature card tokens.

  • Conqueror's Boxes, The Sweet & Swirly Box - Create an artifact creature that can gain flying.

    https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/lotus-temple-guardian

  • Here's mine for the deadlines:

    "Create a creature with pro. black"

    Harmonious Bladedancer
  • Another deadlines box please!
  • Made for Mystery Box Encounters:

    "Create a creature with Battalion"
    Hallowed Servants

  • Conqueror's Boxes, The Average Joe Box - Innistrad's darkness is filled with vampires and ghouls... Create one of the two in the form of a creature living in Innistrad.

    I thought I'd make an average Joe made up of average Joes.

  • @TheRacingTurtle thanks for the favorites!
  • For this quick little mode, you'll need to supply a card for your challenge that uses your own art or the art of another cardsmith.
    • A Mystery Challenge: Create an artifact card with small font.

      The second time I've had to do arts and crafts for a mystery box. Definitely preferred my first attempt more :smile:

  • I will wrap up most of the limited time discussions by announcing winners and posting final requested boxes today. They'll appear in this discussion. Teams discussion is still open until entries are submitted there. The tournament will be under way shortly and will close upon completion.

    After all said and done, we'll make a return back to shuffling the various modes in this discussion... This limited time series was helpful, fun, and worthwhile. It really let me know what was more popular and more engaging. So going forward, I'll be able to revise the shuffle list of modes to be a little more interesting!

    @AboveAndAbout tacked it on to the post...

    @TheRacingTurtle congrats on conquering all the boxes ... your prize = 1 favorite of your choice, unless I'm miscounting the number of smiths that entered a card for that one.

    Alright everyone, as of now, we are back to normal Mystery Box format in this discussion only. A random mode will be chosen. All you need to do is request a mystery box in this discussion as you always have once you've turned in any unfinished challenge cards from this past week.


    Mystery Box Teams will conclude on Wednesday after judging. 


    The Mystery Box Tournament will be the last little bit of the limited series mystery boxes and will commence soon. 


    Upon completion of these remaining two discussions, all Limited Time Mystery Box discussions will close and become references to all that will take place in this discussion in the future.


    Thank you so much for your hard work this past week and weekend. I really had a blast multi-tasking, and I hope you had fun going full throttle with all things Mystery Box for a short stint.
