-4th place "Labyrinth Rusher" by @ningyounk https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/labyrinth-rusher?list=user ^Trample+Apex is a good idea! Maybe last ability is saying this should be green, but the card is more flavorful in mono red. Very unique card! (*Ape, not Monkey btw)
- 2nd place!! "Mind's Shadow" by @ningyounk https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/minds-shadow?list=user ^As a Rakdos fan myself, this would be a gift from god. I think it's a bit too good to be an uncommon, but I'm not sure. I would definitely play this bad boy. Very clever design!
- 1st place!!! "Chandra, Child of Ember" by @ningyounk https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/chandra-child-of-ember?list=user ^I really like how it tells the flavor/story without flavor text! This is one of the reasons that keywords are used in MtG. I would like it more if it said "exile" instead of "sacrifice", but it's not a big difference. Very lovely card! Congrats!
A huge thanks to all participants! There are many other interesting cards, but I can't mention them all! I wish @SKiTCH was here. He would be happy to see that everyone likes his mechanic!
Also, am I free to use these mechanics on a daily basis? I loved the contest and would love to use these abilities more & more, even after this contest has ended.

^Interesting! Very clever design, but I think Pain's effect is very dangerous.

^Fun! I think it's a bit too good. "Draw two cards" would be more balanced.

^Surprisingly a weak rare, but I like how big it becomes when strategy effect triggers.

^Nice flavor on this! I feel like {1}{u}{u} is right for the ability's cost, but Temur look is pretty cool on this card.

^I like how it encourages you to attack even when you are outnumbered. {x}{x} seems like a fair cost to create tokens and pump up this creature. Nicely done!
