Title Cards Contest
Hello! Another pretty simple challange:
Create a card with a name that is the same as the name of a Magic expansion/set.
In-game examples (and a card that inspired me to make this challange):
The card doesn't need to have anything in common with the set itself, but that's up to you. If a name uses a colon (e.g. "Theros: Beyond Death" or "Ravnica: City of Guilds"), you can use just the part after the colon.
Judging will be somewhere around the 4th of April. Up to five entries, no old cards.

Happy smithing!

it's a really cool idea
My first entry. Based on Dark Ascension from the first Innistrad block.
Soul of Ravnica's Mechanic + "Return " to hand; by none other than Jace the Living Guildpact.
There is a ton of Jace art. Finding one where actually looks to be doing exactly what the card says as storm or something going down in the background is like finding the rug that really ties the room together.

Might be a bit strong, but I think it works flavor-wise.
I was originally considering to design this without black, since Liliana only joined during Innistrad, but it seemed too powerful.

Rules are a bit elastic here, but eh, you gotta crack a few eggs to make an omelette
Morningtide // Eventide
Not 100% sure on balance or anything, but it was certainly fun to play around with while designing it.
Edit: This is what I get for forgetting to do a simple gatherer/scryfall search first, as there's apparently an old card from Torment called Morningtide... So much for that idea.
