Recall by @Blueant

"Biotheurgy" by @Beeswax
My submission, using Blueant's Recall. The idea is that it gets all creature cards it recalled back, and then can recall itself to get itself back. Very long game!

It's time to announce the winners of this week!
1st Place
2nd Place
This is a very simple yet flavorful design. It feels like a real card! If only you have credited the artist this was the 1st place X(
3rd Place
I feel like there are too many things to keep track, but I'm not sure. I like that those 3 abilities help each other.

You have 20 more hours to make entries!
1st place
https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/sinners-seizer
Well balanced and flavorful card! One thing I would change is that necromorph ability should come after the triggered ability. But it's a small thing.
2nd Place
https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/mist-demon
I think the insidious cost should be more expensive than Conjurer's Closet. But the flavor is super delicious!
3rd place
https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/graceful-gallop
It looks fun to build a deck around this!
@Corwinnn @TenebrisNemo gets 1/4 cp

@Tomigon - Thank you! I would like to choose these two mechanics:
"Servant" by me!
Servant (Whenever this creature attacks, put a +1/+1 counter on target attacking creature with greater power.)
"Indie-Help/Guide" by @Ludos
Indie-Help (Whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control, you may exile this creature, helping that creature. When that creature leaves the battlefield, return this creature to the battlefield.)
AUTHOR'S NOTE: It's a pentacolor triggered ability, inspired by the indie games (but it can be used for anything) Hope you like it \^_^/
vv--@TenebrisNemo’s Idea--vv
Guide (Whenever another creature enters the battlefield under your control, you may exile this creature guiding that creature. When that creature leaves the battlefield, return this card to the battlefield.)
Decay X (This creature enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it. Whenever this creature blocks or becomes blocked, remove a +1/+1 counter from it.) by seaspray4TF3
[cardtype] Scrap N (Look at the top N cards of your library. You may sacrifice a [card type] to put a [card type] from among them into your hand.) by WitchDoctor133
