@MagicChess, I also like the bit of lore you cooked up. We can definitely consider it when further brainstorming the sets backstory. In terms of the incorporation of exploration as a theme, that is definitely something I have considered an essential…
-
@MagicChess, while I'm not opposed to your idea on paper, I think that the idea is a little too complicated when compared to the relative simplicity of @ningyounk's idea. In order to allow for more design around the mechanics, rather than strictly f…

@everyone, I have moved the discussion to the custom card sets section. I actually did a while ago.
-
And @everyone I will be creating a google folder soon to house all of this, just give me a little while to get that set up. In the meantime, feel free to continue posting brainstorming ideas (tropes, themes, etc.)

@modnation675 I'd like to make the decision to keep that cultured animals aspect of the set moving forward, as I think it makes the set more interesting and less directly tied to history. Continuing the brainstorming process: Nameless Set: Cultured…
-
@ningyounk I totally agree on the need for brainstorming. Part of the reason Zocarus went so well was because we worked bottom up on the design. We need to do the same here.
-
First @modnation675, I like the cards you have come up with here, but could you explain more how each of the mechanics fit into the overall theme of the set? Also, I think the creation of some sort of dropbox or google drive for artwork would be aw…

@ningyounk I definitely like the counter idea. We should try to come up with some card designs utilizing them so that we can explore their design potential.
-
Here is an example of something we could do with the Painter mechanic and the new art that @ningyounk found. Could definitely be enhanced flavor-wise and balance-wise but I like the general idea. I also used the wedges that @ningyounk outlined earli…
-
@ningyounk, I definitely agree with your thoughts on Painter as well. I personally have had a fun time brewing with the few but powerful brick counter utilizing artifacts from Amonkhet, so I think a few cards utilizing Painter with a high rarity cou…
-
Actually, that comment made my thoughts sound a little more bleak than I intended. I actually think that the anthropomorphized animals could definitely be made to fit into this set. However, it would mean we would have to fully embrace them and go d…

@ningyounk @modnation675, I definitely agree with the severe lack of artwork for the genre in an MTG-like style. While I actually originally created a "Cat Advisor" creature type creature to display the Commission mechanic (a card title Giuseppe, No…
-
@MagicChess I think that if the Paintings are kept at all, its need to be made so that they can only exist one at a time. That's why I would propose making them legendary but with the same name of "Painting" or something similar always.
-
@ningyounk got it, whatever name I decide on eventually will most likely be something that isn't actually a real word. @HenryTheHatter if you have any further ideas towards using the mechanics for "Affare Port" creatures of some kind, I would urge …
-
I would definitely say that I am a fan of the "Affare Port" creatures that @HenryTheHatter made. While they obviously would need some further looking at for balancing purposes, I can see them working well with the sets current theme and mechanics.
-
@modnation675 would love to have you onboard, you are welcome to help in the set's development. @ningyounk @Lujikul I had tried to make it so that only one painting could exist at once by making the artifact tokens legendary. When the mechanic was …
-
Transitioning into the formal set discussion, I do like the first idea of a list token of some sort that @ningyounk mentioned, but I think that refining the name to a "notebook token" or something like that would make it more thematically fitting. I…

Thank you guys for all the input, and apologies for the relative vagueness of the contest as a whole. The idea that I had was for people to veer off in a variety of directions with the small amount of prompting I gave them and then venture into the …

Next: An aggressive legendary creature with 0 power that uses at least 3 colors and at least 2 creature types.

Thanks @modnation675!

Thanks so much @Jyagaimasu!

Just a general question because I have been wondering about this for ages, how can I get the full image of my card to show up in my discussion comments?

Request: a useful multicolored legendary creature using my custom mechanic Pacifism. Example: https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/wandering-bardbot?list=set&set=13649

Entry 1: https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/omi-the-setting-sun Unsure of the balance on this one. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Vote for Team A, apologies for Team B's failure but we simply lacked too much in communication and time.

I can be a team captain again, but no promises on my success if my teammates end up being unresponsive.
