@sanjaya666 I'll post links after I get home from exams. ~3.75 hours...
-
@ningyounk I've made a total of five cards in the Fall of Ravnica set. Each one makes use of a different mechanic that I might implement, but I've only got two guilds represented right now--the Azorius and the Izzet. The cards are Corrupt Lawmage,…
-
A card called Appeal to Reason.
-
@Brainifyer Change the mana cost to 10 at least, change the ability text to something along the lines of "The Ultimatum enters the battlefield with three charge counters on it. 3T: Remove a charge counter from The Ultimatum. When all charge counter…
-
@ningyounk Maybe something like {Name}--Whenever this creature blocks, you may draw a card. If you don't, gain 2 life.
-
I've worked out four possible mechanics for the Azorius, each one with a different focus and strategy behind it. I'm not sure which one I should implement for this, and I'd like your feedback on which would work best for Azorius. Disallow {Creatur…
-
@ningyounk Alright, I'll keep that in mind. Thank you.
-
@ningyounk Those colour choices are based on the bigger focus of the guild, whether it be in story or mechanic. The Dimir needs to be slightly more blue than black so that their control of the Azorius makes more sense. The Izzet need to be slightl…
-
@Karmadragon Yes, that's what I was planning on. The guildless will have their own mechanic, but I'll work that out once everything else is finished. A big part of the story will be Tezzeret supplying the guildless with weapons in order to overthr…
-
Just for clarity, these are the colour focuses of the guilds. Azorius--Blue Izzet--Red Rakdos--Red Golgari--Black Selesnya--White Boros--Red Gruul--Green Simic--Green Dimir--Blue Orzhov--White
-
@ningyounk "Until the end of your next turn" I would rather not use a preexisting mechanic, but I will if I have to. @sanjaya666 This sounds interesting, but I'm trying to have Dimir be more blue, and it wouldn't leave much design space around mani…
-
For the Rakdos, I've been contemplating a mechanic called Revel. I think the phrasing would be similar to, "When this creature deals combat damage to an opponent, it gets +2/+0 and gains trample until the end of your next turn." Would that be a de…
-
@Glasseschan Yet another reason why I'm not implementing Ransack. It was just an idea that I threw out there before realising how broken it was. Destroying creatures and planeswalker doesn't sound like the Gruul, they probably can't destroy enchan…
-
@Platypusburger @Faiths_Guide @Lujikul Deadeye Dick and Cat's Cradle are pretty good as well.
-
@Corwinnn Do you have any ideas on what I should add, remove, or change?
-
@Gelectrode That's another big problem I had with Ransack. Basically all of the ones I didn't list before were overpowered except for Izzet and Rakdos. "Balancing" would buff the Orzhov, the Golgari would almost always wipe the board when a creatu…
-
@Karmadragon I could add that version. I might change my mind if I think of something better. The problem with it is design space. If they have any artifacts, they'll destroy those. After that, they're just destroying lands. After a while, it m…
-
@Karmadragon "I had a similar ability called Ransack for the Gruul." I think I designed it for the Dimir...
-
@Karmadragon I had a similar ability called Ransack for the Gruul. It would work similar to "Ransack 4: You may have this creature enter the battlefield tapped and attacking. If you do, destroy up to four lands and/or artifacts defending player co…
-
@ningyounk I'm not sure if the new Azorius mechanic is "fixed" perse, but it's different now. I've also added Perpetuate, the Orzhov's new mechanic. I used toughness instead of mana cost in the new Perpetuate, so balancing isn't simultaneously bu…
-
@ningyounk I'm not quite sure how to simplify Imprison while keeping it's normal effect. Should I just give it an upkeep cost and exile without creating the token? I want to keep the X different for Assault to keep it from being too similar to For…
-
@Lujikul No worries!
-
@Lujikul What about something by Orwell or Lovecraft?
-
@Gelectrode These aren't final for the set--these are just to see what ideas people would have. I haven't been able to find the lore for either Ravnica arc, so I thought that the Boros fought less for control and more for justice. That was a mista…
-
Create a card based on a book written by Kurt Vonnegut
-
@Faiths_Guide I didn't see that card. I must have started on the wrong page... I'm sorry.
-
@Lujikul It seems a bit overpowered, but not as bad as some of the other things I've seen on here. Exiling everything that could pose a threat from a graveyard is too good for three mana. This is supposed to be in a set of Mono-Colour Commande…
-
@syntheticreign Well, I should probably work on fixing that one. Is there anything specific that I should change about Privon or the creature?
-
@sanjaya666 @syntheticreign I didn't understand that you started the game with the lands we made, so I was under the impression that there was a one in sixty chance of getting these cards.
-
@hivelord3 You're welcome. One question, does balance play any role in how these are graded and, if so, would you be able to help me with that? Balancing is something that I've always had trouble with...
