@MTG_Sappy You do everything the same as posting cards from MTGCS. Use the shareable link, not “latest”. And the image is the same as the shareable link except it has .png at the end.
@shadow123 I love both but give Woodland Ceratok "This creature can't be blocked by creatures with power 3 or less" That should help get in some damage considering it's casting cost. Either that or give it first strike.
Grackow was a peaceful Selesnya druid until Nicol Bolas's eternals killed his best friend. He realized he could no longer stand on the sidelines. Eventually, Grackow decided to dwell in the Golgari Swarm to bring his dead friend back to life, so desperate he didn't realize the cost. After War of the Spark Grackow is still heartbroken as even though he brought his best friend back to life, they said it was unnatural and left him. Now he does anything to protect the ones he loves and will save them at all costs.
Your first card is a little too powerful. I feel like this card would be much better if Grakow’s second ability looked like this:
Whenever Grakow attacks, you may pay X life. If you do, return target creature with converted mana cost X or less from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped and attacking.
The first ability looks fine, except there should be a period before the “If you do” and after “cards”
Commented on second card.

I remade the second card thanks to feedback from @Tomigon!
@shadow123 Did you invent the song subtype? I quite like the concept of a saga that you can activate in any order. I'm not to sure about the effect, but I am bad at that sort of thing anyway. (Favourited Mogg Warsong) Next up:
@MTG_Sappy Nice cards! Maybe Zaw should deal 1 damage to any target. The second card should probably gain you life, not draw a card. It seems a little weird for that. I’m favoriting Zaw.
@tookie1 I think you can get away with actually making silent end cost {2}{b}{b}{b}. The mana weight of three black is gonna restrict it to primarily mono-black decks, at most two-color decks. Beyond that it's gonna have too hard of a time making sure it gets black mana. With that being said, black has got a lot of removal, so you want to make this a card that people want to put in. At 6 mana, it doesn't hit until mid-late game, which is fine, except that it'll require a lot more to get a creature through late game usually. So I think by dropping it to {2}{b}{b}{b}, it becomes a lot more playable in mono and two color decks, but doesn't become overbearing. After all, cipher doesn't guarantee anything, so this could as easily be "Destroy target creature" as it is "Destroy several of your opponents' creatures"
A lot of text for one mana, i know, but I think it's actually a really great card. It's powerful in the right circumstances, but isn't oppressive. Good job!
Would love to hear some advice on this one, especially any wording advice anyone might have!
@RohanDragoon, Cool. Its essentially a Cipher for non-Dimer. Although, I would maybe give it a cost to do so. Not much, something like 1 colored or colorless mana. Very good though, I like it.
Up next: @shadow123 inspired me to make this when I saw his Mogg Warsong card. The other is for the Theme of the Month contest.

@Revan I am honored that you were inspired by Mogg Warsong! You captured the theme of my song Mechanic very well too! That aside, this seems a bit too powerful. Giving the option of token creation or putting a soldier onto the battlefield is already powerful. It should also say “create two 1/1...” The second ability is nice, I like it and it has great flavor. I would play this card for the third ability alone. It is very, very powerful. In addition to that, red tends to lean towards extra combat step (I know there are exceptions) while blue is more extra turns. Overall, nice flavorful card!
This is an interpretation of Odin, using another name of his which means "God of Runes." The original art by Adam Wesierski can be found on Artstation; I edited it badly and quickly in MS Paint and another online editor. I tried to focus on this "He is the god of war and, being delightfully paradoxical, the god of poetry and magic."
He's been added to The Menu if you care to check it out.

@Tomigon I like the concept of a riddling genie, it works well. The last ability isn't as flavourful as it could be, but it seems to be effective enough. (Favourited) Next up: Or
@shadow123 This a neat idea. I could see this in several applications. I feel like Master of Masks should be, possibly, somewhere along the lines of a 2/3 or 3/4. Cost seems good, though I could see this as blue or blue/red artifact as well. Food for though: what are your thoughts on making this an Assembly-Worker, besides the fact that it won't fit on the card. Tell me.
Up next: give one, or both, of these a fave and/or leave feedback, then post up to two cards of your own.
