I just saw it on your feed. I said this: That’s a nice card. I think the first ability may be too powerful. Could it be a haste creature that is exiled at the end of any turn? I also think the art is nice. What can you tell us about her?
-
Kor, that's a wonderful idea. You can have more factions if you like. The reason I am saying 3-vs-2 is because it will be easy to slot the cards in the proper colors and rarities that way. If you have a more complex story to tell, that's great. W…

@korandangels Are there other decisions that we have made that you don't like? The things I am announcing about how we divide up the sets and what cards to make are subject to change. It is difficult to fit 20 tribes into even a 1000 card set so a…

That's no fun. What would you like to change?

I don't know what Baltrice is. I would presume yes, especially if it's a planeswalker

@IzItTru I am still hammering out which multicolor cards to make. I made a mistake that I've just corrected: Each block only needs ten color groups (5 islands) instead of all 20. @ Everyone on the thread: This is the link to the entire set plan: h…

@KorandAngels @Bowler218 I will do a better job of explaining. I know that once we publish the lore for the mega-set, it will be quite clear what we will be doing. There are ten little islands in the aether. They look a lot like this: On eac…

@Leaf_Juggernaut You bet. I'm writing a second draft of your first draft and I will send it to you in private so we can talk about it and how to proceed.
-
@leaf_juggernaut, I think you have something there. I even have a card that can help tell that story. The art and flavor text would need revision but this is a card for God’s origin: https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/alseep-for-a-hundred-years

@Ranshi not a mechanical conflict but a story conflict. Just a reason why they’re fighting and maybe a resolution. A little story. Not a graphic novel. Like, a slice of life. I once had a D&D adventure where the focus was two families of hob…

@bremtreaty oh now I see it. I didn’t see what the point was. Sorry. I like the XXW cost. Since it’s a repeatable ability and hard to stop that is a fine cost.

@Leaf_Juggernaut, you can have Jund for now yes

@ranshi I made a transcription error. You will find the updated spreadsheet at the same link. Grixis has four rare slots in block B1. It will have uncommon slots in two of the small sets but I haven't got them sorted out yet. And of course you can…

Right now the way things stand for the first set, A, named Gaifal, is like this: Each Color 12 commons 10 uncommons 8 rares Rakdos 2 common hybrid 1 uncommon gold Selesnya 2 common hybrid 1 uncommon gold Gruul 2 common hybrid 1 uncommon go…
-
Everyone, What Leaf, Ranshi and I propose is that there are ten little stories and each Cardsmith would handle one or more of them. In each story, the main conflict would be between a three-color faction and a two-color faction where all five colo…
-
@Leaf_Juggernaut and @Ranshi would you like to explain the little bit of lore for us? Or I can give it a go and you can correct where I’m wrong.
-
@leaf_juggernaut I don’t know the power level now versus where it was in 2016, which is the last time I competed regularly in paper Magic. The last set I know well is Dominaria. I think Origins hit a sweet spot. Khans block was okay but maybe a lit…
-
@Potato13, thank you for explaining that so well. I looked at my color pie spreadsheet and saw that white could have pro-black and didn’t put more thought into it than that. There are two other creature cards which represent her earlier in her …
-
@Leaf_Juggernaut I’m sorry that was a silly joke. Homelands was at a dismally low power level and additionally almost unplayable based on the strange collection of cards in it.
-
Shooting for Homelands

@Potato13 okay then! Can she still be pro black?

We were talking about the name of the place, and we think we will call it "The Aether Archipelago." It will be a land card in the first large set, and then be the name of the second small set. Here is a proposal for the ability of the card: Com…

Can we see what color combinations everyone would like? Maybe we can all get what we want and maybe we will have to compromise. Remember most cards will still be monocolored as normal, but they should be consistent with your special cards. Ideal…

@drakegladis @axnoodle is correct. On mechanics you can use what you want to aside from things that are 1) obsolete 2) multiplayer/commander/battlebond related 3) conspiracy themes 4) un-set things But most everything is okay.

By the end of my story, the factions have shifted to Mardu versus Simic. The other thing is that besides Boros, the feel of the factions is quite different from other sets. I didn’t want to copy either Ravnica or Khans/Dragons, and that part has c…
