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.

Angelic Quarrel 2WG
Instant Uncommon
Choose one, if you control 4 or more Angels, choose both instead:
-Create a 4/4 white angel token with flying.
-Put a +1+1 counter on target Angel you control. Then that creature fights another target creature.
I see alot of new players lean towards Angels for some reason. Furthermore and instant speed 4/4 and conditional removal seems good in the rihght deck or a limited environment.
Make an Angel who creates demons.

That was weird. That card just kind of made itself, completely from scratch. More political than casual, but it could work. Anyway, as much as I'm enjoying the casual ideas, and I am, it's time to switch it up.
