    Make it an enchantment :) Instants and sorceries don't have lasting effects with maybe one or two exceptions. (Not that I can think of any right now)

    Price of Fame It is kind of neat in the way that it has a pseudo restriction and also does something interesting besides. But it kind of go against what I feel like the legendary status should be. In my opinion it should be an upside to be legendary and not a downside. However it is build into...

    Did you deliberately leave out the other restriction? “Whenever a nontoken creature” Also that Boros flavor text :P “Took her ashes into custody” haha :D

    When we return to return to the Return to Ravnica we will have Undercity Guildmage. And then all names will be in use! :P

    #ReallyCoolFind! Not sarcastic; I love lore like this! However I am not sure about the guildgates. Didn’t Wizards say the big one was the official entrance and the other one was the secret back door? https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/card-preview/opening-guildgates-2018-09-11

    You are beating around the bush. You announced the card with a “How is that third ability serious enough drawback to that you can make it 6/6 for four mana” And you got your answer. It is not enough drawback but luckily it has other drawbacks. And now you are just ignoring the discussion by...

    I mean of course. They will have to do something new every time we visit a plane. Edit: They will have to do somethign new every time we visit a plane so that it is not just more of the same. The whole game is build upon change so change will happen every time we revisit a plane. For reference...

    Same old story with the draws and the pings but with almost-Cruel mana. The rare split cards seems pushed. They seem super nice with the instant -> sorcery and hybrid -> multicolor. A lot of diversity.

    I like the Monarch on high CMC cards like Regal Behemoth.

    Well you can say you have arrived at the right web page. Riptidelab has been doing that since Day 1 which is quite many years ago. Go through all the articles on the front page and all the forum-created threads here. You will find almost nothing but genuine creative ideas as for how to...

    Interesting. How many of each would you include in your Basic Spell Box for an 8-man tournament?

    In order to minimize the amount of 'non-games' Give this to each player before the draft begins. Backup Plan How does Riptidelab experts feel about that? The immediate downsides I can see to this idea is the time-consuming factor. However is there a big difference between 8 players...

    My take on your Reevaluate. I am writing my take but we both know that it is your design and I have simply made two very, very small changes. Here goes: I have been pondering about a new name although the name is really really good and should be on a MtG card. Reevaluate is often a term...

    Man we're ALMOST there! :) Maybe all we need is a special frame for instants and sorceries (Should be the same identical frame if you ask me.) in order to distinguish all types from each other. Creatures would simply keep the M15 one. Oh and enchantments 'need' at new one too in order to...

    I mean there is only so much you can do with a few millimeters of space (sorry, I am not American and thus use the metric system) around the borders of the card. Right now we have a special frame for legendary cards and that would have to stay. Also it would have to be one of the most awesome...

    Reading Ravnic’s comments makes me wish Wizards would delve us into the fourth era of frames. Modern and beautiful but somehow still ancient-looking. Not all the way to Amonkhet Invocations but something that looks older but with the beauty of modern designs. Maybe each card type should have...

    If the majority would prefer the old border then Wizards would print cards in the old border. Nobody wants to lose out on extra money. Edit: Nobody wants to lose out on extra money at no cost. At least that is how I see it. You are welcome to try and change my mind.
