I'm not sure if this ought to be mono-green.
-
@Latinas, what an honor. I feel like the prettiest girl at the ball! XD
-
@TrippleBoggey3, some people leave comments on cards themselves, so you won't see them on the forums. Also, the title of the thread is "See what others think" which implies the poster is seeing what other people think rather than necessarily exchang…

Animist is dead, long live Animist! HUZZAH!!

@TrippleBoggey3, I really like contests that specify rarity, because they allow for multiple variations. For example, first participants "upgrade a random card to mythic" then you could have one in which participants "downgrade a rare/mythic random …

@Leaf_Juggernaut, thanks for pointing that out. Ahahaha! Silly mistake.

Right, though it need not be evil all the time. Black is about freedom, agency, and power-- none of which is inherently evil. After all, we'd all like personal freedom. MaRo said: "Black's philosophy is very simple: There's no one better suited to…

I just want to add that white doesn't necessarily always fight evil and isn't necessarily "good" by default. White can be oppressive and controlling in the name of order-- obviously Link isn't this way, but I am always irked when people interpret th…

I prefer Collaboration of minds. The name, card, and mechanics all work well together.

You can cast spells from exile, so it should be fine as long as the sorcery resolves first.

Found some more cardsmithing design links- This one is a little old, but short and handy, I think: http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/making-magic/land-my-land-2003-03-31 This one is recent, focuses on Creature Lands: http://magic.wizar…

@RohanDragoon Ordinarily, changing a card's subtype does not automatically change its abilities, but the basic land types are an exception. If a land gains a basic land type, it also gains the ability to tap for the appropriate color of mana (and l…

Is uncommon the right rarity for this design?

@TrippleBoggey3, the card works fine mechanically, I think. And it doesn't have wording errors either. So that's all good. Other than that, it has a minor templating error here: "Discard a card: Crabguard gets +0/+X until end of..." The word 'of…

That is some pretty good turnout for this contest, and if it goes smoothly from here, I think one could expect a similar level of participation in the future.

The hacker is the true mvp here. I'm guessing it's Koover, but it could be anybody...

The only question I have about this card (based on Scroll Thief) is whether it should be common instead of uncommon:
-
@TrippleBoggey3, thanks for hosting the contest! Sorry if Vanguard was confusing to you, I can see how it might appear complicated. Just for example, it could be used with things like exalted, things that tap opponent's creatures, and also to force…

IN THE USUAL WAY. Huzzah!
-
@Corwinnn, don't worry, I won't be participating in any challenges/contests for a while.
-
Sorry, no more challenges or contests for me until further notice. Also, I apologize for using some old, already-made cards on this challenge.
-
@Tomigon, no need to apologize. I didn't realize that my participating looked like I was trying to take the winning place from new people. I do not want my actions to be perceived that way, so I will stop participating in contests until further not…
-
@Tomigon, I will delete my entry. Also, one obvious way to stop people from submitting old cards is to have specific rules explaining that only new cards are allowed (cards made after a certain date). I'll stop using my old cards for this challeng…

@DankSoulsRager, you should try to present yourself better! Don't imply something you're presenting is stupid. Before we can be respected, we have to respect ourselves.

You can't stomp the womp!
