    Pokémon: the Gathering - A Custom Cube

    Mask of Avacyn is also kind of bad, imo. I was thinking it's kinda like Boots. I'll try to post ten burn spells the next time I get a chance. It should be easy designs and they're a great thing to have your red section full of. Slower decks will burn your guys to stay safe, faster decks will...

    Pokémon: the Gathering - A Custom Cube

    Power level feels appropriate and even? In battle Generations I to III Flash decreases the target's accuracy stat by one stage. The accuracy of Flash is 70% in these generations. From wiki. I felt like the accuracy loss was reflected well by hexproof, as well as having it be blue-ish.

    Pokémon: the Gathering - A Custom Cube

    HMs? I started by making this image into Rancor. Then decided to make a cycle. Then decided the Rancor "return" text was a bit wordy, so I made the cycle into Equipments. Not sure on the power levels compared to one another. Unfortunately, couldn't find a gen 1 Pokemon using flash. An...

    Pokémon: the Gathering - A Custom Cube

    Multi 3 Finished up RG a little more reasonably. No color has a claim on life gain, so a Helix in green makes sense to me if a bat is sucking your blood. The RR mode gives it good aggressive applications and the GG mode allows a slower deck to take its time. Elec-Fight is similar to UB. These...

    Pokémon: the Gathering - A Custom Cube

    Glad you think so. Sometimes it feels like WotC has already covered so much ground that I can't think of anything interesting. Then I think of something as simple as Cancel+ or Good Exploding Borders and it's still cool. Pretty sure my second RG card isn't cool and is ultimately too ambitious.

    Pokémon: the Gathering - A Custom Cube

    WU is poorly defined in MtG. Here, water is very creature heavy and electric is quite controlling. I tried to make cards that were useful both for attacking decks as well as decks that wanted to slow the game down. Maybe the first card is too good, but it seems likely to be mostly effective...

    Fuck it. It's 3 mana. ETB Cancel. Ward 1. I'll post a few multicolor cards later today, probably.

    Pokémon: the Gathering - A Custom Cube

    Correct It can't be because there's no gen 1 electric-water Pokemon. The design could be something else. I was just thinking that electric's countermagic plus water's high creature count should lead us to some kind of interesting protection spell.

    NAME ... (Water)(Elec) Enchantment Flash Pokemon you control gain hexproof and "[1]: This Pokemon loses hexproof. Any player may activate this ability." ?

    Pokémon: the Gathering - A Custom Cube

    Christmas feels too inherently RG to me. This is a total banger, though, to be sure. My issue with move name = card name is that I want it to be rather true to the move's effect, too. Those names are good but maybe not quite where the card's at. I dunno. I want like... Water-Elec Card ... 2...

    Pokémon: the Gathering - A Custom Cube

    What if it cost 1GE? As a name for the card or make the card similar to the effect of HH?

    Pokémon: the Gathering - A Custom Cube

    Meanwhile, I'm scavenging thousands of images to find art that shows two kinds of Pokemon and could make a convincing multicolor card. Here's a few... Really struggling with some of the pairs... Remember, the color pie is different here based on where the Pokemon lead me. I'll (note) what the...

    Pokémon: the Gathering - A Custom Cube

    Alright, I've done a lot of behind the scenes work: All art will now be from the anime, which means artist credit is OLM Incorporated on every card. Did a ton of art swapping as a result. Trimmed each main color section to 50 cards. Some cards you've seen, mostly Grass, have been cut. Reworked...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    I'm not a fan of adding tokens to the token pile. I'll probably word it as an ability with unnecessary, but helpful, reminder text. What do you guys think about a Clone where your opponent chooses? Like an Edict Clone. Could probably 1-2 mana? Is that even interesting? I think it's fun to try...

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Yes. I kind of like it as a mechanic... Could add it to lands at varying levels that way. Maybe the green ones come down at 1G, for example. Yeah, except that feels like a lot of words to accomplish what a mana cost up top can easily do. It also may not be immediately obvious to my beginner...

    There's gotta be something wrong with this, right?: CARDNAME . . . 3 Artifact Land (You may play this as your land for the turn or cast it for its mana cost.) T: Add W or U. I don't want to use a DFC and think this rock/land design is cool.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    @blacksmithy, how much of your cube is custom now? How did you decide on the power level you're at? The issue with high power, besides price, is the limited number of cards you have to choose from that get printed at that top power level. With customs, you can make any power level have any...

    General Custom Card Contest: New Meld / BFM / Fuse Cards

    So... Fuse is a split card mechanic. You're looking for two cards with some kind of combination into a single piece?
