I distinctly remember someone making custom stickers for the top corner, so I don't think it was you :)

I think Velrun's contract idea reads cleanly, but it still suffers from the upkeep problem, plus it secretly staples Lotus Petal onto every card with contract, plus it makes no sense that you get the gold. I actually like Miasmir's Skizzik idea the best. Just rename it to contract, since...

Beware of echo though, it's not the most elegant mechanic. In hindsight anotak was absolutely right for disliking my upkeep trigger :)

There was someone on these forums who used great stickers to mark the top right of a card. Looked really slick. I forgot who though... Anyone?

I think alpha is a nice choice. It's short and to the point, and while it doesn't immediately scream "only appears in the first pack", it does communicate the "first" part very, very well. I believe people should be able pick up the meaning of this keyword with no problems at all!

Ok, in that case I wouldn't even tell people and just mark them in a way you can easily find them back after the draft. If someone inquires what "that red sticker in the top corner" means, you can explain that these are build around cards that you want to always appear in the first booster, so...

A render always gets the idea across better :) I used the Spellbook border from here.

I thought a bit about the logistics, and it seems to me like you want to make the 2nd and 3rd boosters first, then shuffle in all the alpha cards and construct the 1st boosters. That way you minimize the required amount of shuffling and card sorting. As for the mechanic, I think it's a good way...

Cool! Thanks for the answer. Those scenarios do seem environment specific though. For example, they don't apply to my cube (no Gruul madness, no Golgari (period), no Terro, no Wash Out. It's good to name some cube archetypes / cards that would make the second Mongrel a good fit!

Noose Constrictor is the Wild Mongrel of this cube. Have you ever felt the need for two Mongrels?

Another option is to turn around evoke. Mercenary Poisoner {1}{b} Creature - Human Assassin Contract {1}{b} (When ~ enters the battlefield, sacrifice it unless you pay {1}{b}.) When ~ enters the battlefield, destroy target nonartifact creature. 2/1 Or, shift the cost to the upkeep...

Meh. Foils.

I think the token was custom, not the card that created it per se :)

Off the top of my head, isn't that the art for... Stolen Identity Edit: Hehehe, I have recently been updating my Bant token commander deck, I believe I cut this card, or had it in my maybe pile. I don't know. Anyway, I was right! :D

So... Are you still looking to do a wedge set? What's the overarching idea of the set going to be?

Myth Realized Bonds of Faith Compulsion Narcolepsy Necromancy Seal of Doom Hidden Stockpile

Zur the Enchanter Great build around me card. You need to retool your cube a bit to make it shine, but searching up Bonds of Faith, Metamorphic Alteration, and Phyrexian Arena is just too much darn fun :) Sharuum the Hegemon It's not hard to get an artifact subtheme going in these colors, and...

Also, Extricator of Sin is a sweet, sweet card :)
