Congratulations to landot for getting the most votes! We will be contacting you to get you your prize, a $25 dollar gift certificate to CoolStuffGames and to have you help finish off the Judges cycle (BW and RW). The design team would like to thank CoolStuffGames and yeaGO for the opportunity to give out neat prizes.


Chavest Judge Winner


##Varhas, Flayer of the Flesh by landot
Well, we had to fix the Cleave X thing, then someone thought that a color change was necessary (from WB to RB).


Chavest's White Rare Challenge

For the next Chavest card creation challenge, you will be creating three white rares. These are the guidelines you must follow:

1) You are submitting up to 3 entries, all must be white rares.

2) The cards can be creatures, enchantments, sorceries, or instants.

3) If the card has any mana symbols on it, they can only be Chavest's colors (black, red, white). White in the casting cost, Red Black or White in activated abilities, etc.

4) Other than Cleave, the only keywords that may appear on the card must be evergreen (deathtouch, defender, double strike, enchant, equip, first strike, flash, flying, haste, indestructible, intimidate, landwalk, lifelink, protection, reach, regenerate, shroud, trample, and vigilance). This means things like multikicker, kicker, cycle, etc are NOT allowed.

5) Each person may submit a maximum of three entries total.

6) We will be judging based on the following criteria: a) Effectiveness (Does the card actually work mechanics-wise?) b) Set Cohesion (Does the card fit the flavor for the shard and challenge?) c) Balance (Is the card too overpowered or underpowered both in general and for its rarity?) d) Creativity (Does the card seem fun or is it a clever design?)

###Information about Chavest, to help you along. Chavest is scrublands that lead to a treacherous volcanic range. The general tone for the shard is nihilistic and dark. Chavest is a land united under an iron rule, after a series of bitter conflicts and adjustments. ####Main Creature Types 1) demons - bound to Chavest by an unknown being Demons are generally humanoid but with massively muscular bodies, twisted, horned faces, clawed limbs, and in many cases leathery wings, demons embody the suffering and evil desires of ordinary races.
2) angels - also bound to Chavest by an unknown being, Angels have an extremely strong sense of justice and often devote their lives - and their deaths - to its cause, whatever it may be.
3) humans - Tough minded, hearty and adaptable.
4) imps - imps are barely-sentient, feral pests.
5) viashino - The Viashino are intelligent humanoids with lean, muscular builds. These Lizard-Folk are descended from dragons. Quick, agile, and vicious when required.
6) pheonix - rare and special, the pheonix embodies the driving force of the current, all encompassing Chavest faith, Redemption through destruction. ####Note : We are allowing creatures to be Angels and Demons at the same time. Subtypes include: knight, cleric, judge, barbarian/berserker, rogue. ####Themes/Mechanics Cleave X (whenever this creature deals combat damage to a blocking creature it deals X damage to that creatures controller.)
The mechanics of course include the evergreen keywords (deathtouch, defender, double strike, enchant, equip, first strike, flash, flying, haste, indestructible, intimidate, landwalk, lifelink, protection, reach, regenerate, shroud, trample, and vigilance). ####To Recap : Main Types : demons, angels, humans, imps, viashino, phoenix. Subtypes : knight, cleric, judge, barbarian/berserker, rogue. General themes are land destruction, sweepers, burn, creature removal, Life Gain/Drain, anti-land, and sacrifice.

(Idea around this why he's white is that he is just a disciple, trying to make a turn to BR - mentality. That's why his abilities are colored B and R. I also had an other option about his ability something about tutoring that Varhas, Flayer of the Flesh with some sacrifices of exact colored creatures (like Shards of Alara's Heralds))

MagnorCriol says... #24

I'd like to note that I'm not particularly confident on the costs and P/Ts of these guys, especially Wrath of Chav. I have more of a head for design than development, I think. Feel free to tweak them as you need, if you choose them as finalists.

Entry #1:

~~~~~

Battledancer Angel

2WW

Creature - Angel

Flying, Vigilance

When Battledancer Angel attacks, put a dance counter on it.

T: Battledancer Angel gets +X/+0 or +0/+X until end of turn, where X is the number of dance counters on permanents you control. Remove all dance counters from Battledancer Angel at the beginning of your end step.

2/4

~~~~~

The more there are to participate in the battle-dance, the stronger they get. She's okay on her own, though; 2/4 flying vigilance is reasonable in Limited.

The biggest concern I have with her is the use of a second type of counters. I think this is mitigated by the fact that they'll only appear on this one creature, though, and they don't stay on long.

Entry #2:

~~~~~

Wrath of Chav

4WW

Sorcery

Destroy all lands, then each player may search his or her library for up to X basic lands and put them into play, where X is the largest number of lands in a single graveyard.

~~~~~

"Redemption through destruction." This love child Armageddon and Balance plays into both the sweeper and the land destruction themes (and the focus of the faith of Chav). Since it keys off the largest number of lands in a graveyard, it's not as brutal; it brings people up to the same level, rather than down.

The biggest way this could hose a deck is if it uses mostly nonbasic lands, but encouraging basic lands in legacy formats isn't a bad thing in my book.

Entry #3:

~~~~~

Nomadic Enclave

2W

Creature - Human Nomad

As Nomadic Enclave enters the battlefield, exile any number of lands you control.

Nomadic Enclave's power and toughness are equal to the number of lands exiled with Nomadic Enclave.

Whenever a land would be put into your graveyard from the battlefield, you may exile it instead.

T: Add one mana of any color a land exiled with Nomadic Enclave could produce to your pool.

Star/star

~~~~~

When a land gets destroyed, the people who lived on it become nomads, banding together for strength. They retain the memory of that land, though, and human mystics have the ability to tap in to that memory and draw from it.

This lets you take advantage of land destruction, and in fact would probably combo beautifully (terrifyingly) with cards like Destructive Force . It's also another card that plays on the "redemption through destruction" subtheme.

April 5, 2011 7:12 p.m.

Wrath to Exile

2WW

Sorcery

Remove each creature from the game. Each player may then search their library for a land card for each creature removed this way. Then each player puts those lands into play tapped and then shuffles their library.
