Alrighty! The wait is over. There was more entries than I thought and as much as I'd like to talk about all of them, Im just gonna give you the top 5 and announce prizes.
#5 Azula's Influence by @CnBCustoms The idea of birds swooping down to catch their prey in their mighty talons is a thing I envision a lot when playing bird tribal. And this card captures that feeling perfectly. Plus providing yourself with more removal and stuff to do with your birds other than beat face is always a plus. Great job!
#4 Caller of the Winged by @sorinjace Tutoring, card draw, and cost reduction!? What isn't there to love!? Providing birds with a tutor each upkeep is a great toolbox that birds greatly needed. Cost reduction is great in any deck looking to fill the board, and that ability to just draw a ton of cards allows this to soar into the number 4 spot. Great job!
#3 Dazzling Performer by @BorosPaladin Flash is a powerful mechanic. And when you have a lot of mana, being able to surprise your opponents with a flight of aven-awesomeness out of nowhere is gonna keep a lot of people on their toes. Especially while she's pulling tokens out of her sleeves. And the added ability to blink out your birds to take advantage of etb effects, protect from a board wipe, or any other negative effect, well all I can say is, Dazzling Job!
#2 Galetta Market by @fiskerton What do you get when you combine seaside citadel, gavony township, and cloudkey? A staple land in every bird deck ever. I covered the power of cost reduction in the #4 spot, but also being able to repeatedly buff your board is no laughing matter when you've got a feathered battalion ready to swoop down on your enemies. And it coming in untapped makes the sacrificing of a land well worth the cost. Fantastic job!
#1 Tsapor, Veteran Avenmancer by @brcien So I have a huge love for etb effects that can be exploited with blinking. And this one takes that, as well as my love for birds, and makes a force to be reckoned with! Being able to double the size of your feathery army for 4 mana is nothing to laugh at. And when considering the number of blinking effects in U/W and the amount of token doublers in Bant, this becomes a staple in any bird deck either as a commander, or just an amazing addition. Phenominal job!
Fantastic job everyone and thank you for participating! As for my top 5 entries, let me know what cards you'd like me to favorite, or I'll just favorite the ones of my choosing. Thanks again

P. S:
I couldn't help it. All my entries are part of the same thing. If it isn't too much to ask, I'd request you look at all my entries as one big entry.
Is that in the clear?
I mean, we could have a separate card, and there can be a sheet that says who transforms into whoms't
Oh, and I can make 2 more cards. Don't wait up!
