A bit funny to have another challenge dealing with legendary creatures just after Challenge # 006. But I did make this one up several weeks ago and I've been saving it till now.

There are so far three one-drop legends. Rhys the Redeemed makes a very good Commander. Isamaru, Hound of Konda and Norin the Wary, rather less so.

I don't know if this might turn out to be rather hard.

There's a train of thought that says that Isamaru is one of the best commanders in the format, since he's so efficient, and you don't have to put any other 1CC creatures in your deck, trimming your needs. I admit, though, mono-white can be a pain to build around. It should be interesting to see how many people go to the Hybrid well to make their Legendary creatures playable with more deck archetypes.

But players start with 30 life (or 40 in some rulesets), so an efficient 2/2 is relevant for a rather smaller proportion of the game; and probably even less if the game is multiplayer, as EDH traditionally is. EDH is thought of as "the format for big spells"; things like Collective Voyage only fuel that.

Yeah, I don't much mind if the entries are 1 or 2 colours (or 0). 3+ would be somewhat harder, although I suppose not completely impossible.

­Etched Parasite is my attempt. I wanted something for x, and that lead me to sunburst and I already knew I wanted some colour abilities to let you have colours in your general, so it seemed natural. It's not quite wonderful as a general, but it's very usable as one.

Here's one idea: Resplendent Phoenix. Pretty useless unless it's a commander, where it becomes better and better every time it dies and is reborn :)

With all these challenges dealing with legendary creatures, I might have to find another idea for a challenge. My entry for this is Marthanos, Battle Paladin.
EDIT: Fixed link.

My Entry is (((Baron Somadi, the Deathless))), a 1 drop Zombie General who scales with the game, staying slightly ahead of curve (2/2 for , then 4/4 for , etc). Leads an aggressive black/green beats/recursion deck

Added Narbilexus, Etched Praetor to the mix. On reflection, I think I moved a little too close to Vitenka's submission, Etched Parasite. We even ended up with similar names, though, I designed my card almost a week after his, and didn't notice he was also patterning his design on Etched Oracle and his kin. Still, they are two rather different cards with different needs, so I think we're okay. Maybe these two Legendary creatures could wind up in the same deck?

Also added Iyves, Paradox Master because I evidently had one more idea inside me.

I have also created Marthanos, Sage of Battle, an alternate version of my first card.

Huh, they officially allowed commanders with off-colour mana activations. That makes so much sense, but how did I not notice? :)

Here's my submission: Myr Overlord. I need a legendary Myr for my Myr deck.

Introducing Chloris, the Hatchling

This is much harder if you've never played Commander/EDH before...where would I have to go on the Wizards website to find info?

Also, @Vitenka and @jmgariepy: As long as we're making so many etching cards... ETCH-A-SKETCH!!!!!!!!!!! HA HEE!!!!!!!!!!!

Am I the only one that thinks I'm funny?
