@The-DM I said that because one of the reasons black lotus is so good is because it can be abused with artifact synergies, which wouldn't apply to Veiled Haven.
-
Oh sorry...weird that they would be blocked...I'm having issues posting art atm but I'll see what I can do. EDIT: They're both posted earlier on in the thread. Gio was pretty recent, it should be easy to find him. As for Lizza, just search for mona…

@Arceus8523 it's not even close actually, the Veiled Haven would probably be the strongest card in Magic, right? Def beats black lotus, at least in a Jeskai deck (obviously there's no artifacty synergies, but in a vacuum it's a stronger card.

@LordTachanka123 lol you really need to figure out the card posting thing (no offense intended, I'm having issues too atm actually).
-
@LordTachanka123 I recommend using some sort of kicker to balance it. --- Blazing Ballad 2R Sorcery - Kicker 2B and/or W Blazing Ballad deals 2 damage to all creatures. If Blazing Ballad was kicked with its 2B kicker, it gains deathtouch. If Bl…

@LordTachanka123 given the poetic nature of Eco's storyline so far, I like the idea of having sparks of romance between the two as they go on their adventure for whatever reason, only to have Eco be lost to Gio forever when she sacrifices herself at…
-
@ningyounk that actually simplifies things a lot. I still wouldn't mind including the muses in the final showdown and have a bunch of massive amorphous godlike beings fighting on top of a massive historical museum though.
-
@The-DM the kicker description is italicized, but the effect of kicker isn't part of the description. @SNAPcreator7 the card is interesting, but I'd make a few changes: --- Stomping Rhinotusk 4G Creature - Dinosaur (or Dinosaur Turtle?) Stamped…
-
@IzItTru I like the rebirth answer. However, I do think that the story should definitely tie into this event a little more. Essentially, I think the return of the muses, and the muses in general, should be important to the plot. Questions that could…
-
@ningyounk cool! I'll keep working on it!
-
@LordTachanka123 Lizza being repainted was your idea lol. Honestly, I don't see the issue with having Dimir being a villain often. What's wrong with being a villain? We don't have to treat fictional characters like they're someone in the real world…
-
@IzItTru I actually think the right kind of cult fits right in with the Renaissance theme. They could engage in wild revels for Lizza's sake, considering that if she has a cult she probably is an extraordinary piece of art. Actually, the Mona Lisa …
-
@ningyounk -- I know we're in the set design phase at the moment, and I'm not sure if you wanted to focus on story now. If you want me to hold my ideas until later then that's fine by me!
-
Just because a villain's color identity is black doesn't mean that it pushes the thought process. I'm fully aware of the concept, I just didn't want to waste Lizza on a minor role, and seeing the artwork and the early card designs really pushed me i…
-
Lol @KorandAngels I don't even watch the show but you have to give something more than 2 minutes of your time before forming an opinion on it. As a non-fan I can tell you that it has legions of fans and is pretty critically acclaimed, so while you m…
-
Ok -- I've been looking through the thread, trying to see where the set is heading. First of, I have to give congratulations to @ningyounk -- this is a simply fantastic porject, there isn't anything I would change so far. Honestly, I think you have …
-
@Liwg I love it!! I don't think it's too much, though it does seem a little weird that none of the abilities are "restricted" from the start -- usually you have to pump a planeswalker a little to get to its ultimate. But throwing away planeswalker s…
-
@ningyounk thanks for the explanation! That's what I thought. Just to clarify, the enchantment-sacrificing isn't what I'm confused about. It's just the combination of that and discarding as seemingly unrelated effects. For example, I feel like Phar…
-
I really like the idea behind the change for Animated Tragedy, but something about the card feels weird to me now. It just seems far too precise for a set that doesn't have a major enchantment theme. Also, the wording doesn't let them sacrifice an e…
-
Channel Hellbent EDIT: There's some odd formatting going on with Asylum Haunter's hellbent cost reduction (the cost is on the next line for some reason), just saying I'm aware and it's just something weird that came out for some reason.
-
I'll take Nykrodin.
-
I dunno, I really like white as meta. I guess creativity seems odd in blue based on how the color has turned out but it could work in theory, I kinda like it honestly. It's a nice departure from the usual "evil control everything" archetype it's co…
-
I shall enter with the realm of Tozok. Details soon.
-
I shall return and hopefully not disappear halfway
-
Okay, I like where this is going, but there's still some stuff to discuss -- For one, are "cardsmiths" planeswalkers? I like the idea, but it seems like this would lead to a War of the Spark type set, which was a bit divisive. I also think we shoul…
-
@Korandangels it starts on January 1st and all legendaries must have CMC 7 or greater.
-
What about an actual sort of metaphorical representation of the forums -- Cardsmiths are a race/kingdom/academy/other group of mages that are responsible for creating planes and the magic within them. They live in a chaotic, ever-warping plane compo…
-
It's a bit sad that this needs a bump already. That said, I'll do it. @Dom_Rocks anything else you want to say?
