It sure does make sense. When turning stuff upside down it forces you to rethink. I like that, but it is not an easy task. It probably requires a few passes, and is more likely that you are better off with a complete new game. It is very hard for players who know mtg when the rules are changed a...

Thank you. This was my point exactly. It is probably fun for a few tries and then the novelty wears of and people recognise that it is unbalanced and boring. Not that I mean it cannot be pulled of. On the contrary, but turning the rules upside down requires a different viewpoint and probably a...

I love that they work together. Just like in the books of ya olde age (it was rumoured that these two kept in touch despite the fight between the two brothers if I remember correctly)

The problem with utterly degenerate is that it becomes stale quite quickly. However, what I would do is just use one of your regular cubes and add this rule and see what happens. If you like what happens you can make a special cube

When the engine pieces are the ones with retrace the math changes a bit. The problem with grip and disdain is that they replace themselves with a draw. Suppose a heavy sorcery/instant cube: 1) grip is probably useless since the opponent can play around it by removing its graveyard once. Then...

life from the loam kidding aside, the disdain is only good against expensive cards (and it filters a bit). Grip is only good when the opponent has a large yard, and then it is not of use anymore. Invasive can be too strong since you can retrace. That said, many players do not like playing...

Well, the controller of the enchantment gets an attack when that player plays the enchantment. The other turns not since your opponent won’t attack or break it with something simple. Why make a custom when you have: pariah False prophet pariah is just for one turn, unless you block something...

I completely misread that you meant: Whenever a creature deals combat damage it’s controller sacrifices THAT MANY non-lands permanents and you sacrifice ~. So you will get either alpha striked, token bashed, or flying manned? Doesn’t this leads to board stalls?

I do not want to attack you. You often have a different viewpoint/opinion than many others here. I often agree with your points and your points are valid, as sometimes simultaneously are the points of the others. This sadly and unfairly has the tendency to become a complete brawl of people not...

Hmm, it seems a tad underpowered. In my cube, with only weak creatures, the following is not unbeatable: no mercy

Where did CML go? (I hope I do not rip open old wounds)

Is it that bad? If you do not share a colour with your opponent it could be a wipeout. But who plays slot of enchantments?

Face to face communication is already difficult, it is easy to misunderstand each other. Non-face to face is even harder, let alone the non-nativeness of the language, or the different ways of communicating due to different backgrounds. I always operate under the assumption that the other...

Something subjective like I do not like the play pattern, or I find the card not fun, are completely valid points. Especially, when you can point out why you think this.

I am truly saddened that you stopped posting beautiful ideas due to previous lengthy arguments. This forum should help each other out by improving the ideas and learn from others why some ideas did not pan out as intended. Arguments what colour frame/sleeves can be valid (e.g readability of the...

Ouch. Big assumption, but suppose that not too many sets makes the best cards: after 2006 it goes downhill quicker than the truth in the world.

Fateseal is a feel bad for many players (I am of the opinion that anything is fair game). That said, there is no real card advantage. Can you give more information? What do you want to accomplish with this card?

Apologies all for setting this off - still new and unaware of the personalities around here. Did not anticipate this kind of escalation from a custom concept in the wrong thread. Hoping we can get back to comfy asap. Please keep posting. That someone went a bit of rails has nothing to do with...
