  • A second entry: https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/dreams-of-the-immortal
  • This is a great contest, but a little difficult. It's often hard to balance hybrid mana as the ability must fit into both colours.
  • I don't know if this solves your problem at all, but I've always been enamoured with the idea of the erlking, particularly after listening to the radio adaptation of the Charlie Parker story about him from Nocturnes. This is all extraneous informati…
  • Here's an entry, it uses Gravestorm: https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/demons-descent-1
  • Here's an entry for category two. I only just read the above ruling, but fortunately I don't think this card is overly affected by it. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/dangerous-game-1
  • Here's an explosive vehicle that wants to smash your opponents down, whatever the risk to your creatures. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/goblin-death-wheel-1
  • Wow! Every time I check up on this competition there are yet more entries and they consistently blow me away. Cliche though it may be, this is going to be a hard competition to judge. Just because I've discovered I quite like making cards for Vald…
  • I just can't stop making entries for category 1, for some reason. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/urag-the-lean-2 and his partner https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/grom-the-stout-1 Making friends after the great orcish and dwarven wars ended in an amica…
  • @Arceus8523 It's a fiddly bit of language, that's for sure, but I do maintain that in this case it's 'an historic,' though there are cases where h is proceeded by 'a' certainly. I may well be wrong, however and I am making too much of a fuss about …
  • Another entry for category 1. One is also an assist creature but that's sort of incidental because I was just thinking about logistics when I designed it. I suppose therefore it's also an entry for category 2. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/forge-kn…
  • My second entry has what might be seen as a grammar issue, so allow me to explain. In the Dominaria set, specifically on the card Serra Disciple which I'm using as a reference point, it's written as 'whenever you cast a historic spell.' I don't kno…
  • Here's my first entry. I'm not sure about balancing, since anything that plays this is pretty much going to be an all in infect deck anyway... but I'm quite pleased with the idea of this little medic-bot. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/shattered-med…
  • A third and final entry. There wasn't enough room in the type line for 'Knight' unfortunately so he's just a human coward. I think he's fairly balanced, though I'm not sure. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/sir-albion-the-upstanding
  • Another example to accompany Valdra. This is his 'signature spell' if you will and represents the bloodthirsty power of his followers who will do anything at his bidding, wreaking bloody destruction through the lands. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/…
  • Here's an example, just to set the ball rolling. Valdra was an orc born and raised in the Iron-Skin tribe, famous for its brutality. A runt of his litter, Valdra was bullied, shunned and ostracised from the rest of the orcs. One day, however, the t…
  • Here's a homunculus. Less cute than other incarnations of the species, I'll admit... https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/genesis-surgeon Here's another homunculus. I tried to give it flying, but there wasn't enough room in the text box, so I'm just sayi…
  • Wow, I honestly didn't expect I would win this. Thanks for such a fun competition. I rather like the idea of Aedlin, so that will be my honourable mention. Could you favourite: https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/count-orlok-masked-predator-3 https://mtg…
  • Here's my entry, depicting the devilish Count Orlok, a master vampire. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/count-orlok-undead-archive-1
  • Yes, but it's still vulnerable to exile effects and you have to repay its cost whenever you want to flip it face up (it is vulnerable to removal as a face down 2/2) so I don't think it's too powerful necessarily, just a mechanic to be implemented wi…
  • Here's another entry. I'm not the world's best balancer, but I think this is pretty well balanced. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/tarion-the-skittish-2 It's a cross-tribal card, something I've been interested in experimenting with for a while (Ever…
  • Wow... I didn't even know this existed. This is absolutely amazing... I've created a couple of custom mechanics myself. Since that seems to be the thing I'll put up a couple of them here. I haven't read through all of this vast archive, so I don't k…
  • My first entry, this one uses three of the custom mechanics I've created. As such it's impossible to tell how balanced it is. I'll admit the mechanical connection to bears is fairly weak... on the upside it does make bear tokens (copies of itself). …
  • Here's my entry number one: https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/whimpering-ghouls-1
  • Here's my entry. It uses the 'caster' mechanic I created, which is a little like the 'partner with' mechanic from battlebond, except obviously it doesn't have the same implications for commander, since the caster searches up instant and sorcery spel…
  • Turns out I really love making 'Partner with' creatures. They're a really flavourful and fun design space that I think Battlebond implements well. Here's another entry for category 1, then: https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/count-orlok-masked-predator-…
  • Great! Thanks. Well done to all the winners, they are fantastic. Can you favourite: https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/hungry-symbiote
  • Here's my entry. The art isn't explicitly orcs, but I think it's really cool. These guys have a sort of berserker rage vibe: the more they get hit the angrier they (you) get and the more you descend into blood rage (exiling cards from your hand). Wh…
  • Hi, here's my entry. I know no-one seems to like the Eldrazi, but I've got a soft spot for them. So basically Kaz is an unofficial member of the Gatewatch that they have no idea even exists. After the destruction of Kozilek's physical body a tiny p…
  • A second entry for me and another pair of partners for category one. Hailing from distant, mildly unpleasant forests, these two are sure to creep out all your opponents. https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/fungoid-host and https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/h…
