Legendary Creature:

vigilance

1/1

Repeat my challenge since it wasn't completed.

an additional cost to sacrifice this spell

Man it's been a long week...

Quintorius' Discovery

Sorcery

As an additional cost to sacrifice this spell, sacrifice an artifact and / or an enchantment.

Investigate X times where X is the mana value of the artifact you sacrificed.

Create X Map tokens where X is the mana value of the enchantment you sacrificed.

I've always loved how Quintorius is a Loxodon (Elephant person), and he studies history. Because elephants never forget ;)

Oooh, let's see...

Make a Planeswalker who summons Horrors, and make it feel Lovecraftian in nature.

Oh wow, so I had always thought that the owner of a face down card is allowed to look at it at any time. Apparently that is not true; Only when you are instructed to. It is after you have been given permission or instruction, that you may now look at it at any time. Interesting.

I guess she would need some wording updates, as if she isn't already bulky enough.

She would be a great second Commander for Aminatou, the Fateshifter

The Barbarian and the Bard

Legendary Planeswalker - Jeska Ellywick

+2 Target creature you control gets haste and indestructible until end of turn. It must attack this turn if able.

0 Create a 2/2 red and green Warrior creature token with menace.

-4 Discard a card, then reveal the top two cards of your library. Target creature you control gets +2/+2 for each land revealed. Put them into your hand.

-10 You get an emblem with "Creatures you control get +10/+10 and have haste and trample."

Again!! :D

The artwork is from the game Dragon's Dogma 2.

The Sphinx name is something I came up with. Just borrowing the artwork because it's nice.

For those unaware, Jiang Yanggu is sort of like Garruk in that he can grow the natural strength of those around him. His dog, Mowu, can actually turn to stone which allows Jiang to bring him with through the blind eternities, without harming or killing the dog. Mu Yanling has control over the wind, and to a lesser extent storms.

Jiang and Mu, Powerful Storm

Legendary Planeswalker - Yanggu Yanling

When this Planeswalker enters the battlefield, create a 3/3 green Dog legendary creature token named Mowu. It has indestructible.

+1 Target creature you control gets +2/+2 and gains trample until end of turn. Untap it if it was tapped.

+1 Scry 2 then reveal the top card of your library. If it is a land you may put it into your hand. You may play an additional land this turn.

-6 Until end of turn, land cards you control become 4/4 elemental creature tokens with flying and "If this creature would die this turn, regenerate it." Untap them. They gain haste.

Lets see another dual Planeswalker card. To try and make it a bit more challenging, and a bit more unique, see how many of the following attributes you can adhere to:

• Planeswalker choices that each have 3 or less cards to their printing
• Two different mono-colored Planeswalkers
• Planeswalkers who don't seem to have powers that would naturally align, such as Jiang and Mu, that could be made to work reasonably well

Or if you want a really hard one, Karn & Ugin while representing both of their powers evenly. You'll just have to look those up if you want to take a crack at it ;)

Defile the Unnatural

Sorcery

Destroy all colorless permanents. They can't be regenerated. Then exile all graveyards.

Nissa has bore witness not just to the Eldrazi, but the technologies of man and beast alike. She has witnesses not only her own beautiful world ravaged by the mindless abominations of horror and machine, but countless others. She has studied The Brother's War. She has died to the Phyrexians. Now, it is she who brings the war.

"Now, it is she who brings the war." - Look, I just had to put in some garbage WOTC writing, lol

Long time fans will recognize Nissa use to be horrendously racist, which is where the slight of "man and beast alike" comes from, also. Little Easter egg for y'all.

Make our next BBEG - An evil Nissa

Murder by Crows

Enchantment

When Murder by Crows enters the battlefield, create three 1/1 black Bird creature tokens with flying.

Whenever a Bird you control deals combat damage to an opponent, roll a six sided dice. If you roll a 1 or 2, create a clue token. A 3 or 4, create a food token. A 5 or 6, create a treasure token.

Whenever you sacrifice a clue, food or treasure token create a 1/1 black Bird creature token with flying.

Crows are highly intelligent, love to gather random things and bring them back to their owners / people they trust, and can become quite aggressive. So this card showcases all of that, without being overly complex.

Zyzoth, The First Avatar

Legendary Creature - Avatar

If you start the beginning of the game with three or more different permanents on the battlefield, you may put Zyzoth on the battlefield under your control. If you searched your library for it, shuffle your library.

Each time a Layline you control would have an ability activate or trigger, it triggers an additional time. You may choose new targets.

Leyline spells you control cost less to cast and are 4/4 Avatar creatures in addition to their other types.

5/7

Lol imagine starting the game with 17 power and 4 bodies on the battlefield all because you shuffled and drew well hahaha

But trying to get at least 3 out of 12 leylines in an opening hand? Yeah you kinda deserve it.

Apparently there are only 12 Leylines in the whole game?? I really thought there would have been more at this point... huh, neat.

Make a new Leyline. Bonus points for being our first colorless Leyline.

End the Turn

Sorcery

Flash

End the turn.

"End the turn."

Artwork could be Nicol Bolas literally revealing this card while playing Magic: The Gathering against Jace lol

Wild

Titanus Rex

Creature - Dinosaur

Trample, trample over Planeswalkers, trample over players. (Combat damage dealt by this creature in excess of an opponent's life total can be redirected at another target opponent.)

Whenever Titanus Rex attacks or blocks, you may have it fight target creature you don't control. If it survives and the other creature does not, you gain life equal to that creatures power or mana value, whichever is highest.

12/12

See above

Sol, Champion of Creation

Legendary Creature - Dragon Angel

Flying, vigilance

When Sol, Champion of Creation enters the battlefield you may create a token copy of the permanent Sol Ring. If you don't, put a light counter on Sol.

At the beginning of your upkeep, put a light counter on Sol. Then, you may make a token copy of a another permanent with mana value equal to or less than the number of light counters on Sol.

5/5

Yes, he's a real card printed by WOTC. He exists only for WOTC employees and yes, he is a legal Commander for their decks along with several others.

I once had a passion project to combine Sol, Advocate Eternal with Champions of Archery and make a "Commander Tribal" deck.

So for your challenge, make a Commander who would fit into a WUBRG Commander Tribal deck!

Apparently a group of starfish is called a galaxy, which honestly is the best damn name for it holy crap

Starfish Galaxy

Creature - Starfish

When Starfish Galaxy enters the battlefield, if it isn't a token, create X token copies of it.

This creature gets +0/+1 for each other Starfish you control.

1/2

Would be a nice card to slot into a Simic Wide deck. You could make X super big and have a ton of like 1/7 or 1/12 creatures in play. Basically just chump blockers but hey, those stats aren't easy to shake.

Oooh let's see...

I saw a Facebook post the other day that said this:

• "Imagine a world in which everything was exactly the same except spiders had insect wings."

So do that. Make a flying spider. You could cheese it with a 2GG spider that has like Flying, Deathtouch instead of Deathtouch, Reach. Sure.

But have fun with it. Make it annoying or scary. Make it legendary or whatever. Just have fun with it.

Crown of Making

Legendary Artifact - Equipment

Equipped creature has protection from all colors and each opponent.

Equip - Each opponent draws three cards.

Yeah I'd say that's an unusual equip cost!

I tried to issue this one as a challenge last night, but I passed out and never got a chance to press send. Page timed out and it got lost.

Challenge: My back hurts quite bad. So make a sorcery that showcases sever back pain.

Bonus points for not just being like 3 damage or discarding a card. You know, try to capture the essence of a hurt spine.

Bloodcurdling Banshee

Creature - Vampire Spirit

Lifelink

When Bloodcurdling Banshee enters the battlefield, you may pay any amount of life. If you do, gain control of target creature or planeswalker with power or loyalty equal to or less than the amount of life paid. If you gained control of a creature, then it is a vampire in addition to its other types. If you gained control of a planeswalker, then remove two loyalty counters from it.

3/3

Ranger is a severely underused creature type / class. So make a legendary Ranger who is at least 3 colors.

Sounds to me like Kellan is all about exploring and splendor. Faerie are notorious for their mischievous ways, and he almost sounds like a thief. So it's a matter of harassing the idea of exploration and being a cunning swindler, into Gruul. Without, of course, becoming another Domri clone (just taking control of animals).

Kellan, The New Age

Legendary Creature - Human Faerie

Double strike

You may play an additional land on each of your turns.

Whenever Kellan deals combat damage to an opponent, you may play a land. If you do, that land enters the battlefield tapped.

At the beginning of your end step, you may gain control of target artifact, creature or enchantment with mana value equal to or less than the number of lands you've played this turn. Untap it. If you don't, create a Map token.

2/3

Horribly pushed but he's supposed to be a threat. I could have gone with vigilance and / or haste, but that requires a higher MV.

This way, he gets out fast and starts stealing quickly.

Wild

Many animals have Human-like intelligence. Most notably are dolphins, a verity of whales, elephants, octopus, and even dogs and cats. Most household cats aren't very intelligent at all but some do possess quite a developed mind. My cat, Sweetpea, for example not only recognizes her own name but the names of others. If I ask her "Where's Butters!?" she will run off to find her stuffed catnip toy giraffe we have affectionately names Butters.

She also knows how to use doorknobs. She was keen enough to witness how turning a knob opens a door, and learned how to clasp onto it and pull down to turn it.

She knows some doors she can stick her paw under and shake to pop the older latch open with.

Just because an animal hasn't become gifted in sciences and engineering marvels doesn't mean they aren't intelligent.

Just look at crows. Crows are considering one of the most intelligent animals on the planet.

If an animal can reason that doing a specific action yields not only a specific outcome but a DESIRED outcome, I would argue that is the basis for intelligence, Human or otherwise.

Potol, King of the Rivers

Legendary Creature - Giant Crocodile

As you cast Potol, you may sacrifice any number of creatures you control. Each creature sacrificed in this way pays for .

Devour 1

Deathtouch, trample, menace

Whenever a creature is sacrificed to Potol's Devour ability, or whenever Potol destroys another creature, discard a card. If you do, draw a card.

6/6

It's a lot going on but it's also 9 mana so.

Just learned of the hunt for a +30' crocodile in the Philippines named Potol who has been rampaging and killing people for almost 15 years now. Had to make a card for it.
