I really enjoyed all the entries, you did a really good job on what I had in mind
First here are some honorable mentions:
@milanaarz with Natural Predation
I really like this one and it perfectly fulfills the requirements of the challenge, except one (I had to reread the rules again
Great job anyways!
@TurkeyAsylum with Guidance of the Reaper
I just like the overall flavour and it balanced Necropotence in a fair way. Cool!
@Grimshac with Vision of Nature and @AustinSmith with Sparksphere
Those are cool cards and balanced versions of their original cards, but these cards were not quite the broke staples I was looking for (in terms of that the card itself is broken). But don't get me wrong here, you did a good job.
Ok now my three favorites in this challenge:
3rd place goes to @Gelectrode with Abrupt Negation
You could argue that the card feels rather "uncommon", but in terms of current standard, I prefer it as it is...card seems fair, but still powerful and it definetly balanced FoW
2nd place goes to @Beeswax with Cranial Odyssey
This card probably wouldn't see nearly as much (if any) as brainstorm in the respective formats, but it doesn't have to. It's a fair take on a "One-Mana-Draw-Three-Spell" and the overall flavour of the card is fantastic. Great job!
and the host of the next "Winner-is-the-Judge-Challenge" will be...
@Animist, because 1st place goes to Gravedigger's Refrain
Much awesome, very wow. This feels like it could have been an actual print, since delve is already in the current standard. The mana cost seems about right and should prevent ridiculous turn 1 combos most of the time. But like Entomb, it's still very very powerful, if used correctly. Awesome job and congrats on winning!
Also thanks again to all participants, hope you enjoyed it
So basically it's my turn to come up with a challenge? I'll have a think about what to do for it...
