@cadstar369 Stuff and Such seems to me like it has very high potential to be an extremely frustrating card to play against and fraught with opportunity for abuse. The key attributes that contribute to this are that it's fast (low cost & haste),…

@Ranshi I think the seven that qualify you for this round of playoffs also qualify you to be active next season and then you'd need to create a new seven during that season to qualify for that season's playoffs, which then qualify you to be active f…

Thanks @jpastor! It's not too early for a sad backstory at all. Let me see if I can move things along there. I'm taking some artistic liberty in having the flavour show the soldier (literally moments) before becoming a spirit. The blessing in th…

Nice! Will the established judging team have the availability to provide any feedback on the matches outside of just the results? Or, if the goal is to help improve people's cardsmithing, the feedback can be just for the losing cards/cardsmiths, s…

@cadstar369 Modal commander challenge accepted. I had to fight hard to resist including every single colour, but I couldn't justify the green, even though it's red that lacks any monocoloured Faeries. The name is a nod to the "modalstorm" strategy…

@StuffnSuch Provoke does make Bushido more playable. Here's an old card with a similar strategy for Rampage, except that it has to go the extra distance of forcing a team block to accomplish anything with Rampage. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/yok…

@cadstar369 I made this with TenebrisNemo's custom mechanic a while back for a contest. It's a Saga-focused commander, even without the second commander synergy. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/cerano-master-of-encores

@jpastor If you're referring to this prize I claimed way back, yes there's an outstanding sculpture to be made. https://forums.mtgcardsmith.com/discussion/comment/226551#Comment_226551 It was originally given to 12SidedGuy but you pointed out that…

I suppose Mind could be worded as "plays a card of the chosen type" so that lands trigger Tithe Extractor no matter what, since "play" encompasses both playing a land and casting a spell (Rule 601.1a). However, that would then make Mind not trigger…

@cadstar369 The new version looks much better in terms of playability and intuitiveness. The extra point of power seems fine in offsetting the fact that its ability hits less hard than Kambal's and is narrower at any given time as far as what trigg…
-
@cadstar As per your comment on the card's discussion, your initial inclination to put the Tithe Extractor ability on a cheap permanent was probably the right one. Having to wait until you reach six mana before you can play the current version mean…

Thanks @jpastor, looks like you went deep to find those two cards.

I'll choose 6, 17, 27, 40, 57, and 73 from the emergency prompts. 1. A legendary creature mashup (a la March of the Machine) depicting former enemies joining forces (E.g., Gerrard & Volrath, Urza & Mishra). 2. A card that interacts with fou…

Thanks @jpastor. Those favourites can go to whichever cards you like: https://mtgcardsmith.com/user/Jadefire/cards

Speaking of situationally turning off effects, there are also cards like Knight of the Holy Nimbus/Clergy of the Holy Nimbus and Glittering Lion/Glittering Lynx that have abilities your opponents can disable at will. The key is properly tuning the …

@StuffnSuch I think that's what shield counters are meant to do. They completely replace destruction but they can also be consumed by nonlethal damage. The closest parallel I can think of for a continuous effect like indestructible that's manageab…

That's a good point. The original intention was to accelerate nontraditional win-cons like manlands and other permanents that can be animated (and are generally safe from your own sweepers), but mass/repeatable artifact creature token generation ca…

There aren't too many ways to save Companion, but at least you can try creating some interesting deck construction constraints & payoffs with it. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/kiroc-of-hidden-legions

@StuffnSuch there are five open mystery challenges happening right now for Mystery Box Conquerors, make some cards for those. https://forums.mtgcardsmith.com/discussion/comment/226761#Comment_226761

@cadstar369 It seems the closest comparison to Purifex Charm is Bant Charm as there's a destroy artifact-exile enchantment parallel and a counter instant-exile sorcery parallel. This leaves the comparison of tucking a creature to Magma Spraying a …

@WarriorCatInAhat There are actually more cards that exile spells that haven't been named, so I wouldn't be too concerned about that being too rare of an effect. Mindbreak Trap does it in addition to any card that can end the turn at instant speed …
