Design three creatures, each of which is an iconic creature type for one colour but is not that colour itself.
Design a rarity cycle starting with a Mythic Rare Planeswalker, and two spells with that Planeswalker's name in it. See the comments section for more details.
Design two uncommon, rare, or legendary cards with 0 to 5 words of rules text.
Take one (or more) of the 20 uncommon Legendary Creatures from the Legends block (see list in comments) and redesign it from a modern design view as a Rare.
Oracle Casting Cost and Creature Typeline CANNOT change, the name can be modified but must still be recognizable, and the redesigned card should be in keeping with the original printed flavour text/art. Otherwise, go wild.

Design a one-drop Commander. That is, a Legendary Creature that can be cast on turn 1 in Commander/EDH if it's your Commander/General.
Take an existing creature type that has 6+ creatures of that type but no non-Legendary "Lord" specific to it. For that creature type create a "Lord" of that type and a Tribal Spell (Enchantment, Instant or Sorcery).
Design two creatures whose abilities hose each other or seem like opposites, and yet at the same time would work well together in a deck.
Top down art design. See comments.
Design one or more lands each affiliated with a type of creature.

Choose a movie, TV series or video game. Design two instant or sorcery cards to represent actions taken by the characters or events from the story. One should be cheap (<=3 mana), one should be expensive (>=4 mana).

Design a 1-cost planeswalker; that is, a planeswalker with a converted mana cost of 1.

Design 3 cards with a casting cost that includes the "purple" mana symbol. See Comments for more details.
Creatures in magic have two numerical scores, Power and Toughness, or three if you count converted mana cost. If there were a third number on creature cards, what would it represent? Design two creatures of different rarities depicting your vision of what this third number might be.
Design are finishing off a small set, and they want a 2-droppable piece of equipment. (That is, casting and equip costs add up to 2.)

Create a new creature type for Magic the Gathering. You may either use a creature that Magic has yet to employ, one they've shuffled into another creature type, or one you created from scratch, but has a flavorful element that ties them together. Create three creatures with this type.
Click Gatherer's Random Card link to find a card not in a tight cycle. (You can find up to three such and choose one of them.) Design four other cards expanding that card into a tight cycle.
Create a card whose name is the same as an existing printed Magic card, but punctuated or divided differently. Make the card's function as different as possible to the printed card.
Design an Archenemy scheme.
Design a creature and a non-creature whose mana costs include at least two hybrid mana that don't share a color in common.
Design three cards in a vertical cycle based on rarity. Those cards must be mono-colored, and cannot share a color.
Design two "Future-Shifted" cards with different mechanics, but who's flavor puts them on the same plane.
Design up to three Transform cards that start as one type of permanent and transform into a totally different type of permanent (they don't all have to be the same start/transformed type)
The current (real) Magic card types are instant, sorcery, creature, land, enchantment, artifact, and planeswalker. Wizards likes to include Tribal, but let's face it, it's not really a type like the others. Design a new card type.
Design a card/cards themed around a frog or other semi-aquatic creature.
Design a card riffing off of the previous Challenge # 033 card's design. You may only submit one card at a time, but, may make multiple submissions, assuming they are spaced between other people's submissions.
Design cards (preferably a cycle) using someone else's card type from Challenge # 031 and/or someone else's mechanic from Challenge # 029. Give credit where it is due.
