So i'm going to anime boston, and I've decided to make a card of my frienmd using a pic of her from a performance of "thriller" so here's the card:

FRIEND'S NAME, Angry Zombie

At the beginning of your upkeep this card deals two damage to target creature

vigilance, persist

flavor text: Some say she's brilliant, other's say she's veiling herself. I think she's crazy.

5/7

too much?

Yeaaah... I'd say too much. Not the abilities but the card itself. Don't know the girl but normally they are not that keen when somebody calls them angry and crazy.

CMC is off, p/t is not very RB, and angry is not a creature type.

I think the flavor text is a little off.

Are you going for something playable, or just trying to impress? If you are interested in this person that could change some of the suggestions you get.

1) what would you change the CMC to?

2) what colors would it be?

3) creature type is her name, and i'm NOT putting that here

4) how is it off? no "who is it by" thing?

5) really both. she's a funny person who can't hate or be angry for the life of her. Blonde, brown eyes, glasses. We skype for AT LEAST an hour daily

I think 6 is not bad, but I do not recall a creature that that split. Maybe 4RB or 3, and 3 split mana, maybe just straight 6x

I think the colors are fine, Just the p/t should be something like 7/3-7/5 higher P then T. Persist is best used with an ETB effect. Or something like Inferno Titan.

Not saying to tell us her name, but just Zombie Hername would be best for creature types.

Some suggestions for flavor text.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains. Seth Grahame-Smith

Blood is really warm,it's like drinking hot chocolatebut with more screaming. Ryan Mecum

Alive or dead, the truth won't rest. Rise up while you can. Mira Grant

I just searched "zombie quote" on google. The middle one is a haiku from one of the sites.

Does she play magic often? If so, what does she play?

If you do like her, make sure to be clear about that. That is the main thing.

bruh, you are SO awesome! +1 that comment. She doesn't play often, but i want this to be just a flat out good card of/for her. Casual is her gig in all reality...

I am glad I was able to help out.

Also, vigilance is not really a RB thing. Also, be a little careful with the EtB you decide. Persist can be a powerful thing, and you don't want to make it op. Maybe a Shock or Lightning Bolt when it EtBs?

I like that better. I like when flavor text has the quote tribute on it personally. I am thinking Woodfall Primus is the closest comparison of real cards here maybe. Crossed a little with the rhino that is in standard.

Hopefully you can get some more opinions on the strength of this card. Seems good, but not sure if it is over powered or not.

You should tag some of the people on this site that you think could judge that well.
