-Double-faced card(Two-Faced by KJMartin) count as one.
Morphkicker by KrampisZman
Morphkicker [Cost] (You may pay an additional [Cost] as you turn this permanent face up.)
NOTE: Like Kicker but on a Morph!
Archive by KJMartin
Archive [Cost] (You may cast this spell for its archive cost. If you do, exile it instead as it resolves, and it becomes archived.)
AUTHOR'S NOTE: For instant and sorcery spells, and then they have an effect like 'As long as this card is archived, (effect..) ..or.. [When/Whenever/At the beginning of.....] ____, if this card is archived, (effect..)
Tomigon &Faiths_Guide's NEW Version
Archive [Cost] (You may cast this spell for its archive cost. If you do, exile it archived as it resolves.)
Manashift by AustinSmith
Manashift [Cost] (You may cast this spell for its manashift cost. If you do, it becomes _*color_ and loses all other colors.)
NOTE: There are always colored mana symbols in [Cost]. "_*color_" is that mana's color.
Hivemind by Gateways7
Hivemind (This creature has all abilities of creatures you control with a hivemind counter on them.)
Reunite by ArienStorm
Reunite [Cost] (If this card is in your graveyard and you control a creature with the same name as this, you may cast this card from your graveyard for its reunite cost.)
Holy Shield by AustinSmith
Holy shield (This creature enters the battlefield with a shield counter on it. If damage would be dealt to this creature while it has a shield counter on it, instead prevent that damage and remove a shield counter from this creature.)
Trio by fullmetalryuzaki
Trio (You can have three commanders if all of them have trio.)
Backstab by Tomigon
Backstab N (If this creature would deal combat damage to an opponent, you may put N -1/-1 counters on a creature that player controls instead.)
Two-Faced by KJMartin
Two-Faced (You may have this creature enter the battlefield transformed under an opponent's control.)
*Edited version by TheMechanix
Two-Faced [Cost] (You may cast this spell for its two-faced cost. If you do, it enters the battlefield transformed under an opponent's control.)
Other name ideas by @Shadow29870: double-agent, cursed, sift, embrace
Leaderless by Faiths_Guide (*Updated version)
Leaderless (At the beginning of your upkeep, choose a player at random. If an opponent is chosen this way, this creature attacks that player this turn if able. Otherwise, tap this creature.)
Rush by MaverickGV
Rush [Cost ] (You may cast this spell for its rush cost. If you do, it gains haste, and it's sacrificed at the beginning of the next end step.)
Charger by ZendikarIncarnate
Charger (This creature can't be blocked by more than one creature.)
Aaaaaaaaaand…..
Archery by ChargingBadger
Archery N (This permanent enters the battlefield with N arrow counters on it.)
Well, here's entry one, using Charger! If anyone's got tips, obviously just lemme know.
2nd entry:
Archive [cost] (You may cast this spell for its archive cost. If you do, exile it archived as it resolves.)
Updates. Thanks, @Tomigon!
Trio (You can have three commanders if each has trio.)
These guys care about tapping stuff. The deck these guys would commandeer will make you have no friends at the table.
Made for @Faiths_Guide in the Cardsmiths' Cardsmiths contest, and it works here!
for mtgcardsmith
I have nothing against mtgcardsmith it was just how the card turned out using Kefka and my thought of a MAD MAGICIAN because the flavor text I wanted but couldn't fit said this. (Plus he is the GOD of the site. ^w^)
"One has to be a mad magician in order to create such a wonderful thing as this." - Dechujoh64
A few questions:
1) Can we change the name of a mechanic?
2) Can we make minor changes to the reminder text of the Mechanix?
3) Can we use the mechanic on a card but not name it?
Rush [Cost] (You may cast this spell for its rush cost. If you do, it gains haste. Sacrifice it at the beginning of the next end step.)
One card, of course.

I'll make this into an image later. I hope you like it!
XD
Yes (just make a note on Disqus)
Yes
and...
If you want, but I'm easily confused
@TemurGideon thanks for the editing tip!
Two-Faced is static. A triggered ability uses the words "when," "whenever," or "at." ( http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=370670 )
Sorry, I don't quite understand the 2nd question..
Here's an example of Two-Faced:
https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/pegasus-of-cleansing-light
https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/plagued-pegasus
It counts as one entry. You need to create both sides on MtGCardsmith, and post those links here. The site doesn't have borders for transform cards yet, so we just use normal borders without mana cost to make a flip side.
