This wasn't a tweak of his idea. Nor is it an idea I'd submit as a final. All of my ten ideas are designed, but I'm not trying to spam the thread about a month before the end. Would you like me to DM you my mechanics so that you're aware that they're already finalized?

I came up with a rather similar mechanic. (All of my cards are finalized. They're just being slow rolled to post.) Not sure if it's allowed, but I went with a reprint for my common. I added the "during your turn" restriction so that it wouldn't be so painful to attack into. Also because GRUUL...

Oooh. Fixed.

I feel like Azorius kind of lacks mechanical identity in Ravnica. Forecast was incredibly forgettable. Detain is thematically cool, but it's largely uninteresting. Addendum felt like the decent cards had an option you'd almost always use; usually the instant. I tried to make Addendum better...

Considering cutting my C costed cards. eldrazi displacer dimensional infiltrator bearer of silence world breaker endbringer flayer of loyalties kozilek, the great distortion The main reason for cutting these is the last three. Painlands are kinda bad. Filters are fine, but it can be difficult to...

Had our first draft tonight. 7 players. One newbie accidentally passed a pile of his taken cards rather than passing the pack, so everyone got an excess of white cards. Messed up almost all of pack 3. 5C player had easy mana access. Triomes on the watch list. Isochron Scepter banned for...

Does anyone know how to organize effects on a charm-like card? ojutai's command atarka's command How do they choose which is first, second, etc?

Here's my "first entry." Still aiming to do ten. Have three ready so far. I also considered naming it Dark Bargain, but that's a two word name as well as being the name of another card. I still might change the name. Not sure.

I have two counter mechanics right now and have RG and GW left. I thought of a counter mechanic for both. I'm also really glad that my idea isn't Finality counters with Orzhov, or I'd look like a thief.

I've got five keyword ideas that I feel good about right now, two that seem alright, and three guilds that don't have one. I thought it would be fun to try for all ten lol.

Damn it. I thought of basically this exact mechanic for GU. I hope no one pre-steals my other current idea. I could argue about the power and rarity of these designs, but I think we're more focused on the keyword here, which seems excellent for UR. Nice one! This seems cool. Since you're...

I think these are all nice cards, but they suffer from being shown alongside a bunch of other basic cards and/or cards that are jamming "Investigate! Get it?! Because of the MURDER!!!" I'm sure it'll level out across the set and be great to have these basic effects at common and uncommon.

These cards are really solid, but they feel a little off to me... Thraben Inspector but a DETECTIVE?! We know you LOVE Lightning Helix! Think Twice BUT BETTER! Did you think Witness Protection was cool? WE DID. Investigate signposts for the most basic UB, UR, and RW decks. Immolating Glare BUT...

You have a hard time finding art? You don't have access to a card maker? Or you don't understand cardconjurer specifically? I'm open to helping. EDIT: I just had a really good idea for a UB mechanic before I almost immediately realized that it's already Delve. EDIT EDIT: One entry per person?

This is where I always end up when I design something that isn't a draft.

I think that having one emblem in play for the entire game makes more sense than changing the emblem periodically. If it's a shared deck, the decks should theoretically be able to exploit the emblem to a similar degree. I'd probably go a bit more mild with the effects. Howling Mine OR...

I think you're always going to lose a lot of the fun by taking away the agency in drafting and deck building. You also lose the huge majority of the variation, which can lead to things getting stale much faster. With this loss comes an increase in quantity of cards required to achieve any amount...

We need some sort of "???" reaction for shit like this.

Make a bunch of your own or remake some old ones and go to town! Or do jumpstarts for a similar experience with some more variation.
