@Temurzoa Might I suggest a rewording of the Pilot ability? Maybe it can go like this: Pilot *Cost* (*Cost*: attach *Card Name* to target creature. as long as a creature is piloting *Card Name*, it's power and toughness is equal to *Card Name*'s. a creature may only pilot one War suit at a time.)
Though, the ability is very similar to Equip, so you may want to make Pilot stand out from similar abilities, like Equip and Crew.
This next card is just a rough draft, so I would greatly appreciate your opinions!
P.S. Not sure what the creature type should be for this yet, so I just went with Elf Wizard for now.
It's designed for @ningyounk's next "HALF-Great Designer Search" contest (which I think everyone should participate in if they have the time) and uses the first name option, retooled very slightly for legendary reasons, interpreted from the Red Riding Hood perspective. I've used an infrequent WoTC term: continuously. I've also implemented a word that is unheard of outside of silver border: longest. Personally, and perhaps biased-ly, I think that the first sentence I developed is a miniature stroke of genius! XD The second sentence and its interpretation of appropriate reminder text may be a stretch? Should it be a mythic? I'd love any feedback on all of it!

Kamalar is a fun idea for a card. I really like the concept of everyone trying to recover their precious cards before she exiles them. My only problem is that the swapping-control is more in red and blue's color pie than white's. Adding red and a broader +1 ability would help a lot.
I find it humorous that Unload the Quiver can slay Emrakul. Maybe Zendikar needed more archers. However, the "Choose 1" should be "Choose one," as typical MTG wording dictates.
@Temurzoa Thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely consider changing Kamlar to White-Blue or White-Red. I left a comment and a favorite on your card, which I like very much.
@Nicholas_Bolas It's a great card, but really shouldn't be a common. It seems to be in the uncommon range. Here's mine. It's also a first draft, and also for the Half-Great Designer Search 3.
@Bowler128 Aside from the texting falling off and the somewhat questionable art, it's quite a nifty card. I'd probably play it purely because you can have a lot of fun with it.
My main rant is about the colour. Generally speaking, Green deals with lands (eg Noyan Dar, Roil Shaper) and Blue has card searching. White does often cover exiling and returning though (eg Admonition Angel), so you got that right. Perhaps W/U/G would be the correct colour identity/mana cost?
Also, the text needs a slight rejigging. I believe it should read:
Trample As long as Casmir is on the battlefield, Casmir may attack lands as if they were players. Lands have a life total equal to the number of colors in its color identity times ten. When Casimir enters the battlefield, search your deck for a creature card with power less than Casmir and exile it. When Casmir deals damage to a land, put all cards exiled this way onto the battlefield under your control.
@Mantis17 This card seems too good for its mana cost. a card with loyalty that's higher than it's cmc, a fairly achievable ultimate, and a first ability that is way too good for four mana. It really doesn't matter, but the image also doesn't fit the card at all. It seems like someone who would tap down permanents, not gain control of them. I suggest you add an extra blue to it's mana cost and replace it's image to something more fitting.
This next card is very much a rough draft. I think that the second ability cauld be worded a little better, so if anyone could give me any suggestions, that would be great!
Why red? And the CMC should be higher as you get a Tutor+ and can discard to cast stuff, like if we remove red from this and you wan to play a red card of 1CMC, you can discard Ajani's Presence to play outside of your color identity.
@Bowler218 I think it should say "Prevent half of the damage dealt rounded (Up or down)" and then give the creature -2/-0 and on the other side, both creatures get double strike.
@pjbear2005 My comment here is pretty short. You've designed a solid a playable card that is both reasonably balance and well formatted (with the possible exclusion of a necessary comma after "plains"). I, however, would suggest making him a bit more versatile referencing wording from Awakened Amalgam:
At the beginning of your upkeep, if you control three or more differently named basic lands, draw a card.
Of course, whether or not you make that change is completely up to you and not a necessary alternative in any way..

Sortof a "Bladed Bracers" or "True-Faith Censer" for passionate Knights. Is it too crazy for a common? Also, do you like this art better, or the one on the card page?

Does Blood Witch Aspirant need to be a 4 CMC 3/3 for balance (is she too strong at 3 CMC)? Outburst was an Instant, but I chickened out. Could it reasonably be one even with this much potential?

@urtar370 goxon looks good, but it is really hard to feasibly gather enough life to cast it. Nora, Sage of he Forest is good too, being well balanced, unique, and interesting, however it has no power or toughness.
Made a new card with my own art, wondering what everyone thinks:
@MEGAElixer I would say this is good but you need to go and bump this cost up DRASTICALLY, as this allows you to basically take people's cards, including played commanders, and turn them into shield juggernauts, along with the fact that they can also attack the turn they are played due to stack order and Haste NOW IT IS MY TURN (Sorry for the sub-par wording but I didn't have enough time to proof it, still an interesting mechanic though)
@EnvyReaper Thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate constructive criticism an am happy to recieve some! Im not a premium member, so I cant edit the card, but I will make sure to think of this in the future.
@MEGAElixer that is ok, all you have to do is select all of your text on the card (Should be in the sidebar with all of the card info) copy, and paste it into a new version

Opinions?
It's a great card, but really shouldn't be a common. It seems to be in the uncommon range.
Here's mine. It's also a first draft, and also for the Half-Great Designer Search 3.
Can someone comment on mine:
https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/once-upon-a-time?list=set&set=39331
When Once Upon A Time enters the battlefield, search your library
for a Hero, then exile it face down under Once Upon A Time.
As long as you have a Hero face down in exile under Once Upon A Time, you
may look at the top card of your library and cast it if it's a Hero.
If you cast a spell in this way, exile Once Upon A
Time and put all cards exiled with it on to the battlefield under your control.
{2}: Shuffle Once Upon A Time into it's owner's library.
next up...
Here's one more card from me:
