commented on the cardset WWII
Disclaimer:
As mentioned in the short description, this set is a Top-Down design, this means that there will be cards that don't fit the usual paterns for the colorpie.
Because I'm hitting a rather sensitive topic with it please tell me if you are offended by a card/image/flavourtext/... and I'll try to find a solution (change/delete the questioned content).
Uncommented edits are minor changes (e.g. picture adding, fixed wording, flavor adjustment).
I'll just note that -then- is much less of a restriction than . Exalted Angel was played in tournaments because she cost -then-; if she cost she wouldn't be touched with a bargepole.
Oh yeah; if you've got some other way of killing creatures (like, say, a second copy...) then this becomes utterly insanely powerful.
But at that point you've got "Two specific cards needed and a bunch of other stuff in play" so it's probably not unfair to allow such a combo. (After all, five creatures probably CAN cause 10 damage, by attacking.)
Wow... this is weird. Did someone else submit a card very much like this at one point?
On a separate side note, Vitenka... I think you want to be aiming the damage at opponents, not at creatures. If I equipped this to a... oh, let's just say Dimir House Guard, I would only need to have so many creatures in play before I won the game. 5 creatures = 10 damage.
This seems exceptionally strong. Turning something into a double-strength Goblin Sharpshooter? You'll note that Thornbite Staff's granted ping ability cost , and that was only pinging for 1. Since you're charging then , I think it miight be okay to let something ping for 1 without any mana cost, but 2 damage along with the untap is just excessive.
search your libary for three cards.... with different name maybe?
Needs (desperatly) a better name!
changed the name

should be more of an uncommon now
Mayor powerlevel adjustment (untap with sac instead of dying critter)

I kinda want that sorcery, now, though.

Yeah, wow.
Sorcery
Cast ~ only if you control a creature.
Destroy any number of target creatures with power 2 or less.
Is... actually, that's fair. What's not fair is that this then remains on the board, ready to do it again and again and again.

This is following in the pattern of Shinka, the Bloodsoaked Keep and friends, also reinforced with Flagstones of Trokair. So I think it's broadly fine.
I don't know whether this is too strong, or too weak. So it's probably about right.
Very very funny if an opponent forces you to cast it, or brings it back from your graveyard, or something.
Shouldn't this have an ETB tapped, or some other downside? Or is legendary enough to allow you to obsolete basic lands?
