Custom Cards forum
Posted on Aug. 28, 2015, 4:15 p.m. by TheNextRedDude
Ok, heres how this works. You create a card to the specifications of the person above you, then list your own card idea for the next person. I'll start.
Variety XX
Sorcery
If X is 2 or lower, draw X cards. If X is 3, put X +1/+1 counters on X target creatures. If X is 4, return X target creatures from your graveyard to the battlefield. If X is 5 or more, Variety deals x damage to target creature or player. If X is 10 or more, you win the game.
Create a life gaining multicolored Turtle with power twice it's toughness or vice versa.

zephramtripp says... #18
So does this mean the winner picks the next challenge or will The_Redpill?
July 10, 2017 2:43 a.m.
The_Redpill says... #19
zephramtripp should we have a vote to decide? jk
I'd say the winner does, but how many votes should we go to?
July 10, 2017 11:57 a.m.
zephramtripp says... #20
It would probably just make sense to set a deadline. The survey went up at 3:16 on Jul 9, so we should probably just wait 24 hours, to allow for everyone to see it, but not delay too much. So does 3:16 on Jul 10 sound good, or would later be better?
July 10, 2017 12:23 p.m.
The_Redpill says... #21
Well it's past the deadline now and there is a tie, so for the tiebreaker RazortoothMtg and seshiro_of_the_orochi must fight to the death for eternal glory. Gentlemen, I admire you above all else, and wish you godspeed.
July 10, 2017 7:42 p.m.
zephramtripp says... #22
So, tiebreaker challenge! Each person must design an epic card in the tied combination they didn't originally design. Then someone can do a wild, and we can get on with it.
July 10, 2017 9:46 p.m.
