    jpastor's availability may be going down in the near future so we're able to provide challenges as well.  Prizes will still be earnable with challenges but you'll be given a raincheck for them until jpastor can catch up in the discussion.
  • Si @Ranshi
    Those 3 can do that anytime they like!

  • @Corwinnn
    I'm actually not sure the way you have the rat worded works for the challenge.

    */* is a value that changes. So it wouldn't work. Create a Rat creature with rally and */* P/T, but it's power is always greater than its toughness.
  • @jpastor That's true, you can't have two *'s represent different numbers.  Typically, that's written with the adjustments in the P/T box itself like on Tarmogoyf, Lhurgoyf, and Consuming Blob.
  • @jpastor - I've reworded the Laboratory Vermin card and updated it. Here is the link
    https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/laboratory-vermin
    We were discussing wording options and I think you saw one of the non-compliant versions. I can try to reflect it in the PT box for you, but I can't do it MTG Official.
  • I got ya @Corwinnn that's one way to do it!! The solution I had in my mind was Laboratory Vermin gets +1/+0 for each Ally you control.

    Laboratory Vermin's power & toughness are each equal to the number of Rats you control.
  • @jpastor with that text Laboratory Vermin’s power is greater than its toughness only while on the battlefield, so it would not fulfill the challenge. 
  • @jpastor - I see what you're layin' down. Had I done a Red card, I might have seen that as an option, but I heard Rat and went with Black instinctively.
  • Create a card with the word nascent on the card anywhere except the flavor text.

    Can I get another mystery box with two challenges?  Dealer's choice for difficulty.  I'll also use one of my Prize 8 - Rusty Keys on this box.
  • Just an fyi @Ranshi ;
    I did show these three my process. So what you receive in Mystery boxes should be pretty close to what I'd give you.

    • Mystery Challenge: Create a creature with evolve.

    Can I have another box please, oh granters of boxes?
  • can I have a box?
  • wait
    do you lose previously opened boxes when a deadline ends?
  • @Ranshi
    Your mystery box contains:
    • A Mystery Challenge: Create a Merfolk lord that gives Merfolk a bonus other than a boost to power and toughness.
  • @WarriorCatInAhat nope, boxes generally last until you finish them, and the card(s) you make count for whatever deadline said card(s) are posted in.
