I kinda rushed through this, and in hindsight it was a bad idea, because this card is a hot mess. What do you guys think, any balance changes needed to be made here?
I'm not quite sure who this 'Lord of Palms' is, nor do I think it is proper formatting to leave part of a legendary creature's name out when referencing itself. I only feel comfortable talking about syntax when it comes to this stuff.
I like the idea of your Eclipse, but I am curious why you chose the gold border instead of the normal black border. In addition, here is proper wording for the card:
Shroud
Eclipse enter the battlefield with X totality counters.
When Eclipse enters the battlefield, each player chooses a land he or she controls for each totality counter on Eclipse. Lands chosen this way cannot tap for mana for X turns.
Hi! I decided to try and reprint Reveka, Wizard Savant https://www.mtggoldfish.com/price/Homelands/Reveka+Wizard+Savant#paper My goal was to improve Reveka slightly so she can be played as a viable EDH commander. To do that, I changed her toughness from 1 to 4, so she can't be killed by a single lightning bolt. Next, I changed her mana cost to 2BG, so she has access to cards like Kiora's Follower to help her untap. Finally, I changed the wording on her ability so that she exerts, which does the same thing, and is more commonly used. As for her creature types, She is mentioned as a Dwarf in her flavor text, and Wizard is already in her card name.
@Gelectrode thanks for the feedback. to answer your question i only chose the gold border for the aesthetics. i really like the new wording. i think i may make a new card reflecting it
@sanjaya666, mages are fun and nostalgic, and many people like watching their favorite spells turning into mages.
Concerning Magus of the Reverberation, methinks that it would be pretty broken in a burn shell, doubling your lightning bolts and other burn goodies. And would it combo off with Ghostly Flicker?
Concerning Magus of the Squall, I think it is fine, but the flavor text bothers me. What about "Nothing's really out of reach for Mother Nature."?
Concerning Magus of the Summoning, small grammatical error in the flavor text. "MY method may be too (no comma) rudimentary..."
And concerning Magus of the Tomorrow, I was confused at first where it was from, then laughed when I saw the pull counters. Clever!
Transcendental Transit appears to be balanced - nice catch on cmc of creatures! - but I am puzzled by the flavor text. More explanation necessary, perhaps?
Gunnm burnt and drowned feels out of flavor with blue dealing damage to creatures. Maybe add red to the casting cost? Also, remember to reverse the mana order of the last ability
Anger's Gift has wonderfully creepy art, but it reads to me as "tap Blisterpod, draw seven cards." Also, why is it 'anger's gift?' There appears to be no reward for going ape and smashing things!
Anger's Gift was in reference to something outside of MTG. The name ends up being misleading, but if the reference is known it makes sense. (Same goes for Transcendental Transit.)
Rereading Transcendental Transit, I actually see a small mistake I made in the card text. It should say "At the beginning of the next end step, search your library for any number of basic lands up to the number of creatures exiled this way and put them onto the battlefield." Guess I'll leave it as is.
You're right, Gunn should be red, at least partially. Oops. (Can you guess what cards I *didn't* ask for outside opinion on first?)
Thanks for your feedback.
As for your Rubblebelt Imbecile, this looks like something that would be fun to "give" to an opponent. (How you would do that is beyond me, though.)

Seems fine now, I think...
