I have been reading the novel Frankenstein by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley lately and decided to make a few cards inspired by her book, using Relentless by @NokiSkaur and Overheat by @ManaChrome.
*The quote on Frankenstein's Monster is said by The Monster in the book.
*On Frankenstein's Monster, it was supposed to be Zombie Horror, but it didn't fit without overlapping the set symbol, so I had to cut Horror.
*The idea behind Dr. Victor Frankenstein's knowledge counters is that the scientist is building the monster piece by piece. The accumulation of knowledge counters can represent Victor's discovery and research in animating non-living matter and when his knowledge gets great enough, he can create his monster.
"Determined Birdhouser" by @ASubtleGhost This robot is adorable! It's a little hard to remember the colors of birds though. But I enjoy the flavor!
"Danitha, Lone Vigilante" by @sanjaya666 Dark hero concept is very cool. And I like the situational death strike idea.
-3rd Place! "Hellback Gorilla" by @TenebrisNemo This is a badass card! I love it. I feel like it should create Aura tokens instead of emblems because emblems are only for planeswalkers. But who knows, many people disagreed with uncommon walkers before WAR.
-2nd Place!! "Possessed Sword" by @mtgisawesome0 @mtgisawesome0 Thank you for submitting 15 cards! Your cards are very creative, but they tend to be very wordy and unrealistic sometimes. It was quite a work to examine all of your cards lol. But I really enjoyed them all. This card however, is relatively simple and the concept is straightforward. Seems really fun!
-1st Place!!! "Breaking Barriers" by @sorinjace Flavorful effects and perfect art choice! -------------------

*This quote is indeed also from Mary Shelley's book.
Riot by @Isthera. It is the static ability, as there are no italics for planeswalkers.
Based on this soundtrack:
Apex by @SKiTCH
Edit: Changed the art and made the power line 2/2
I KNEW it looked familiar! Let me change it around real quick

I like how you dodged the color pie issue on this. Clever idea!

I think this is a bit op, but I like the idea of making the Relentless's effect only downside. It feels more relentless.
