Using my unkeyworded version of WitchDoctor133's custom mechanic:
Edit: Slightly changed the wording on the latter part of the 1st ability. I also changed the mana cost from {4}{b}{b} to {3}{b}{b}, decreased power by 1, and increased toughness by 1.
First Place - Jenni of Legorna by @Tenebris Nemo - 1/4 CP https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/jenni-of-legorna featuring Dauntless by @jonteman93 I'm not a Commander player, but this makes me want to play. Super solid construction and use of the mechanic in conjunction with Partner!
All my TOP cards are here https://mtgcardsmith.com/user/Corwinnn/sets/52237 I pick at least ONE card for each mechanic and if a mechanic has more than one card, then I felt it needed recognition as well! All top cards will get a favorite from me!

Great flavor and use of the mechanic! If you pull this in a draft, you're gonna want to build around this, and I love it!

@TenebrisNemo , @Usaername & @MemoryHead, each of you can choose up to two custom mechanics for future challenges. Pick any mechanics you can find in Mechanic Encyclopedia for ALL or Tome of TheMechanix, or you can make new mechanics! Comment on this thread or send me a PM. If you don't want to choose, that's also ok!
