Reminds me of Wormfang Newt, Petravark and the other wormfang creatures.
A mashup of Spine of Ish Sah and Vested Light.
Ended up being very similar to white "return to hand" cards, or to Scythe Tiger. Ideally this would have been slightly swingier: white very nearly gets 2/2 for W already without a sac, so there's less incentive to use this or to find situations where it really shines.
Is there a creature type for small mammals other than squirrel or rat? I imagined this as a porcupine or similar, but changed it to insect. Should it be a spike?
Mashup of Blight and Wall of Earth.
OK, this isn't exactly what would normally be printed, but where else could the mashup go? I didn't really like "at end of turn", but decided if it couldn't attack once, there was no reason for the more complicated "when becomes tapped" instead of just "defender".
Is there any way of making it so you don't have to remember this dies if your opponent can tap it, without changing it to "when this attacks"? Or is that ok?
Yeah, I hesitated over uncommon/rare. I think usually it would have
and be cheaper and rare, but I decided the repeated activation just about justified rare, even though the card is less outstanding than an average rare in most ways.
Looks strong but fair. I've always liked Wing Shards effects. Spurnmage Advocate was a lot cheaper but made you jump through rather more of a hoop. Rare is probably the right place, though at 6 mana and 6 mana I could see this at uncommon too.
That's one heck of an activation cost. I know you want to avoid "Ok, I'll activate this seven times, boom" but... wow; the chanter has that activation cost. What a ridiculously huge cost for that ability. Ok, for the sake of the merge, I guess. Normally boring; but this will block+kill one creature, plus force a sacrifice of another. A player whose game-plan is to attack with a fatty or two will be completely shut down by this. So it's got appeal for those who like white's game plan of "Sit back losing, and then reverse it" Especially as it then works on the offence too.
I'd run it.
Mashup of Stonehorn Chanter and Celestial Flare
Taking everything from Stonehorn Chanter except the contents of the activated ability and replacing it with the untargeting creature destruction on celestial flare.
It feels like this must be broken but, oh well, every time I have one of these cards Royal Assassin says repeatable conditional creature destruction is strong, but not as broken as it sounds. I guess?
This doesn't target, so it's less good against an opponent with lots of creatures, but better against an opponent with one hexproof creature.
Suggestions? It'll normally be boring, but if you can use it at all, it'll hopefully do the job quickly.
Mashup of Boots of Swiftness and Engineered Plague.
Hm. How can you have an engineered plague that happens really quickly? Let's try it like this.
I'm not sure of the templating, any suggestions?
I'm not sure how strong it is. I chose "one other" rather than "every other" to try to keep the cost down, but I'm not sure what the cost should be. Alternatively, should you have to pay for the copy?
It's deliberate that you can either kill two opposing creatures or pump two of your own. But should it be one or the other? Killing opposing creatures is much stronger and fits the plague flavour. But pumping your own is more awesome.
I think "creature or player" would be fine given that you're giving up your 2-power flier for it. As it is I can't see many circumstances where this thing's ability would be worth doing.
Interestingly, it's ended up quite similar to Faerie Macabre.
Mashup of Pendrell Drake and Mountain.
What does red get when it discards from hand? Maybe simian spirit guide But we already have that. OK, ping for 1 (but not a spell).
I considered making this a big dragon, but it didn't feel right, and it was too convenient to be able to cycle the big dragon you might not be able to cast.
I considered "creature or player", but decided that was too strong, given that the weaker version was potentially very useful already.
Love it. Wait, he straightened my TV? Stop it!
Indeed, Barbed Lightning is what Lightning Bolt would look like if it were modal.
Replace 'head' with 'body part of that player's choice', and I think we have a deal. That card would be printable in Unhinged alone. "Hold it, why does Danny still have an army of Working Stiffs in play? He's bending his arms right now..." "Oh, he cast Chaocerlace last turn, and declared that the television set was his elbows."
Yeah, it's silly. It's not intended to be effective (any more); just silly.
what? no bolt is not modal
700.2. A spell or ability is modal if it has two or more options preceded by "Choose one -- ," "Choose two -- ," "Choose one or both -- ," "Choose one or more -- ," or "[a specified player] chooses one -- ." Each of those options is a mode.
ex.
Modal Bolt R
Instant
Choose one--~ deals 3 damage to target creature; or ~ deals 3 damage to target player.
a modal bolt like this only lets you choose the same object type when Deflected. i.e. if creature mode was chosen, then deflect must choose another creature; or if player mode was chosen, then deflect must choose another player. OTOH, deflecting a lightning bolt does not have the same restriction. so you can choose creature or player regardless of original target.
Modes are chosen as the spell is cast, so jmg's example, while quite funny, unfortunately doesn't work. I don't see where this ever is useful. BTW, did you know spells like Lightning Bolt are modal? The modes are "target creature" and "target player."
Trying to come up with reasons for doing this--I'd love to see the rare occasion when a person can't remember all the modes that are on their card, but can't read the card, because it is on their head.
"Now, with my Incendiary Command, I deal two damage to all creatures and... um... can I destroy any land? That doesn't seem right. Cripes. Man, you got less cards than me... I really don't want to Wheel of Fortune right now..."
ROFL!
...Bwahahaha. Okay, not the fix I was expecting, but I love it. It doesn't work very well (it has to resolve from the head-stack), but it's giggleworthy anyway.
make it a silly-tax
Hmm. Good point, and I missed out the silly element too. Let's put that back.
Er. White gets Disenchant, but it doesn't get Muddle the Mixture. (It does get Judge's Familiar and Mana Tithe, but that's because it gets taxing like Ghostly Prison.)
