I had the idea of cards with hybrid mana activation cost. You know, instead of real gold cards, we could have more felxibility at common with a cycle of these. Chinri Lurker {2}{U}{U} Creature - Insect Rogue (c) When Chinri Lurker deals combat damage to a player, you may draw a card. {R/G}...

That's cool man, I started something similar but was far too busy lately to get it done! Okay, let's start with the commons I'd say, they're the backbone of limited, and this set is probably goind to be drafted mostly when we get there. I studied MaRo's skeleton article and a few executions of...

Okat the Crimson Sun sounds awesome! And to the tokens: Thrulls have rarely appeared as tokens and as cards they came in all sizes. I do agree that we want 1/1 tokens for that wedge, but I figured doing them in the main color as 1/1 white clerics would make most sense. Sacrificing only Thrulls...

How about the name Okatan Cult? They pray to Okat, the God of the burning Sky. Also, if we have Thrulls as servants and sacrifice fodder, I'd like there to be Thrull tokens: Ru'an, Okatan Ceremonial Master {3}{W}{B} Legendary Creature - Human Cleric (r) When ~ enters the battlefield, create...

Wow, I couldn't see your cards before, that's some incredible art! You're the master of art finding, no doubt! I know, I'm changing my mind a lot on this, I just wanna make sure we get it just right. Sorry, man. The reason I backed off from Oblastion (the cost reduction) to redemption as an...

I don't feel like we're there yet. I thought a bit about this topic and I think the best version would be again a ability word. I'm usually more of a keyword fan, but I think, that is the best way to capture the flavor of strong magic requiring or getting better with death/sacrifice AND have it...

Okay, my super quickly designed cards are unbalanced, I accept that. But which keyword are we going for now? Do you like Redemption better than Oblation? Or something completely different? I feel like my first Iteration with the sac trigger is just a giant design headache :D

Alternatively, for a keyword, how about: Blessing of the Sun God {4}{W}{W} Instant (r) Redemption {2}{W}{W} (You may cast this spell for it's redemption cost if a creature died under your control this turn.) Creatures you control get +2/+2 and gain lifelink until end of turn. Demanding Desert...

I think you see it from the wrong side. A mechanic, that makes blocking a pain is a great fit for an aggressive faction and makes the game more interesting. It is not really different from Bloodrush or basically any combat trick, except that the blowout potential is much lower, which is another...

On a serious note: Don't you like my second version of Oblation? It reads a little less flashy but it would fit a white-based wedge so much better (Unruly Mob, Field of Souls). The biggest upside however is imo, that it works as a really nice link between the go wide nature of {R}{W} and the...

Yeah, the revolutionary idea is, that you can play this set with out a table just on your legs!

Another idea, this one goes on both, creatures and spells and feels a little more white but also a little less exiting. Reviving the Souls {6}{W} Sorcery (r) Oblation (This spell costs {1} less to cast for each creature that died under your control this turn). Create a 1/1 white spirit...

Oh, I think I have a good one. It only works on spells but requires (sacrificing of) creatures to work. Blessing of Shadows {2}{B} Instant (c) Oblation (As you cast this spell, you may sacrifice a creature. If you do, copy this spell. You may choose new targets for the copy.) Draw two cards...

Cool idea. Only but: let's not write that "cycle or" part, it might confuse alongside retrace and it was already stupid imo in amonkhet.

Nice. I like the idea of alchemy-flavored spells with retrace, feels like mixing the potion (or poison) again by using the natural ingredients. An attempt for the last one: The Sun Cult of Omayisk {W}/{B}{R} The Omayisk people adapted to life in the desert area of Vakeztan, where they evolved...

The nature folk of Ghumata The Ghumata Elves are the natives of Akeztan, living in the lush jungles centuries before humans or other species discovered the continent and made it their home too. The Ghumata are sceptical of all these intruders, and they fight them whenever they try to harm their...

I love this. Awesome.

Just came to my mind: With Tame, Smithing and Swarm we'd have 3 creature keywords already. Cycle is neutral, but we should add at least one spell keyword. One of my all time favorites that never saw much of print is Retrace. We could consider this for {G}/{U}{B} and make them care about lands...

I'm down for it. We should probably make them really intelligent insect people, so they fit the blue centered scheme. Could you post a few example of cards and maybe rough flavor guidelines for us?:)

Didn't you have that invaders/swarm idea for the {U}/{R}{G} faction, Ondee?
