Host by Ranshi922
Host (This creature has all activated abilities of creatures with host counters on them.)

Materialize [Cost] (You may pay an additional [Cost] as you cast this spell. If you do, put it onto the battlefield as it resolves and it becomes a creature.)

My version: Fury (This spell costs {x} less to cast, where X is the greatest amount of combat damage dealt by a creature to a player this turn.)
Fury by Battlesocke
Entry 2
Slayer By Lastjustice
On side note, I think I came up with Slayer first as I was posting cards with it like 2 years ago. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/dalla-fleet-devourer?list=set&set=15387 and https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/rashida-the-dragonslayer?list=set&set=31890. No biggie either way, just thought I'd mention it, as I'd credit myself for any cards with it that I make.
Entry 3
Original mechanic/ Enlightened by Jarnefeldt
Enlightened (This creature can't be the target of spells or abilities as long as it is tapped.)
Modified version by Lastjustice.
Formation (Whenever this creature and atleast two other creatures attack, creatures you control can't be the target of spells or abilities as long as it is tapped until your next turn.)
Entry 4
Jump-scare by DeepSky
Entry 5
Splendid by Kickash
Entry 1: With Solidarity courtesy of Fiskerton
This works like Rythm of the Wild does?
Halted by @sorinjace
Enlightened by @Jarnefeldt
My first submission using Erode by @Jarnefeldt.
Entry 3, with Splendid by @Kikash
I think I saw this comment and forgot to mention that original idea was yours.

Sorry about that!

Including:
Host by Ranshi922
Unseal by Megalomalice
_____ Slayer by Dechujoh64
Enlightened by @Jarnefeldt
Materialize by @FangQuil
Original: Resist "color" (This creature can't be dealt damage by anything "color".)
My version: Immunity to "color" (This creature can't be dealt damage by "color" sources.)
Thanks to @Memoryhead for helping me out.
This is a little messy because most keyword abilities that could have a dynamic value are worded to put the chosen value after the keyword (ex: Protection from X, Affinity for X, Hexproof from X, etc), and there is no precedent for having a keyword "against" a particular type (ex: there is no "First strike against Goblins"). But I think it still makes sense here.
