Spectrophobia: Fear of mirrors and reflections
*Reads contest's rules a bit closer*
Wait, no mention of Un/joke cards?
*queue maniacal laugh*
Nomophobia: The fear of being without a phone
I originally didn't intend for them to all be blue, but given blue is the most common color for control and copying, it kinda just turned out that way.
Atychiphobia - The intense or otherwise irrational fear of failure.
This one was a little too real for me; not because I suffer from it, although I am paranoid of my failings, but rather, because I was working on it when I got news back from my early decision school... I didn't get in... Come to think of it, both of these phobias are rather topical...
I know this is technically an old card, but I edited it yesterday to be completely different!
Acrophobia - The intense or otherwise irrational fear of heights.
Just as was the case with Ablutophobia, this is an old card that got revamped yesterday.
Agliophobia - The intense or otherwise irrational fear of pain.
Same note as the others.
Achluophobia - The intense or otherwise irrational fear of darkness.
Another oldie reimagined.
Lygophobia - The intense or otherwise irrational fear of dark places.
This is one of the only two exceptions to the trend of this post.
Nyctophobia - The intense or otherwise irrational fear of the night.

This one being the other exception.
Aichmophobia - The intense or otherwise irrational fear of needles and sharp objects.
Atelephobia - The fear of not doing something right or the fear of not being good enough.
I had this card in mind for a while but I just didnt know what mana cost it should have, also was super busy for 2 days lmao
well, what's done is done haha
@zephyr6066 Is there time today to make a last minute entry?
I don't want you to delay other results for the sake of waiting for me but I appreciate the sentiment! Please let me know if you do something similar in the future!
@KorandAngels There are 2 versions of the phobia of long words, you chose the longer one! I was fearful that my preferred longer version wouldn't fit the card title if I went with it

Thank you for hosting the contest, and for the honorable mentions!
Ironic that the randomly "chosen" honorable mention is Decidophobia (fear of choices)
Just need to clarify, do I pick 2 favorites or 1 (since I got 2 honorable mentions)?
