    Changed Extravaganza to Daze since the wording seemed more appropriate for the effect.

    Here's a rewording I'm likely to use:

    Devout of 'color' by @Suicidal_Deity [keyword revision]:
    Devout (Whenever you cast a spell that shares a color with this creature, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature for each colored mana symbol in that spell's mana cost.)

    Be warned, in a few specific scenarios it will function differently than the original mechanic.

    Just wanna say that whoever thought up this mechanic is a genius. XD
  • Changed Emissary to be "target opponent" since you could simply pass it off to allied players too easily.

  • This time, I'm gonna actually try, because I want to choose that mechanic!

    I made a card for this, and then you know what happened? It disappeared. I pressed publish.. And "poof" went the card.

    @Tutlaschk Some things are better left unclicked.
  • @CrucibleOfHate Is it not? But when I click it, it works just fine :O

    Using my variant on Devout of 'color' by @Suicidal_Deity [keyword revision]:
    image
    Devout (Whenever you cast a spell that shares a color with this creature, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature for each colored mana symbol in that spell's mana cost.)


    [Notice the last ability is not a "may".]

  • Extravaganza

  • Extravaganza would use "When" not "Whenever", just like a regular ETB. It should also target!

    Extravaganza (When this creature enters the battlefield, up to X target creatures can't block until end of turn, where X is equal to this creature's power.)
  • Is that not what it says?
    ;D

    @Corwinnn - Ooooh, it looks much nicer now ;D

    Extravaganza!
