Set/Rarity: [NONCANON] My Random Shit Common
Ya know, I was looking back on old challenges and noticed Challenge #018, based on the perennial question of "what would a sixth Magic color look like?" My answer for that is it'd have to be focused around an aspect of gameplay that nothing else cares about (or has only previously cared about in very rare cases), which is the physical orientation and position of permanents on the battlefield.
Like, if you're familiar with Hearthstone, they have a number of cards that care what creatures are to the left or right of itself, or what's on the left/right ends of the "row" of permanents on the board. Purple in Magic would be along those lines to me.
Basically what I'm saying is this is a fine effect for a purple card to have at common! Maybe undercosted for instant speed though :b
purple is purdy. Well there was a small theme of movement in this set, i didn't have any eneergy to go back and make something that fit into it, so i went as simple as i could. This might be a broken cantrip combo piece, or a RANDOM SHIT card... either way fits into this set :P
I will be sure to check out your purple cards, seems cool to me!
I didn't bother with the multiverse page too much since I couldn't have them have purple frames or purple mana symbols. They won't be purdy without them :(
Going back to "move" I still don't know how it would affect the creature. There aren't any battlefield ordering related mechanics in MTG after all. Is it purely on a concept level at the moment? I have trouble accessing the full cardlist of this set...
I recall trying out some "exchange/switch two target creatures" that would theoretically change their statues as in untapped, attacking, unblocked, or whatever with each other. It wasn't exactly clean though so I dropped it eventually.

Okay, so what does it exactly do? How does it effect the gameplay?
I'm always interested in hearing possible ideas for purple, since I've been working on and off as a side project for such a color.

I checked them out, they are very nice! Good job!
Yeah, there's an outdated thread for that on the MSE forums if you're interested: http://magicseteditor.sourceforge.net/node/12573
... and also a multiverse page: http://www.magicmultiverse.net/cardsets/2164

maybe i could add a buff , make it a cantrip with draw card suffixed on? so it actually has a purpose
