Previously:

Carrier {4} {u} {u}
Creature - Protoss Ship [r]
Flying
~ gets +1/+0 for each card in your hand.
Whenever ~ attacks, draw a card.
0/3

Too expensive? Too strong? Who cares! (actually I do, still need to test it)
Inspired by freakin' Onyxia, of all things. Not Prossh, Skyraider of Kher.
Finally found a design that actually LOOKs like a carrier, isn't a rehash of Hangarback Walker or Pentavus, and most importantly, synergizes with Protoss self-bounce and exile!

2016-04-19 08:03:51: jameschanlee edited High Templar:

When High Templar enters the battlefield, target player sacrifices an attacking or blocking creature. -> Destroy target attacking creature with power 2 or less.

2016-04-19 08:02:57: jameschanlee edited *Corsair:

When Corsair enters the battlefield target creature doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step. -> When Corsair enters the battlefield, tap target creature. That creature doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step.

Before:

SCV {w}
Creature - Terran [c]
{2} , {t} : Add {3} to your mana pool.
1/2

Previous design was too cute. Currently testing the cycle of "if no spells were cast, BLAH" found in Battlecruiser.
Terran has a LOT of activated abilities, and there are many turns where it spends all its mana just using them. This is meant to reward these turns.

1/3 -> 0/3

2016-04-19 07:56:55: jameschanlee commented on Explosive Payload

Previously:

Strike Cannon {x} {r} {r}
Sorcery [u]
~ deals X damage to target creature or player.
Salvage {3} ( {3} , Exile this card from your graveyard: Draw a card. Salvage only as a sorcery.)

--

Salvage removed.
Even before, this played a bit weirdly. X spells are end-game spells or finishers; tackin on salvage to get more gas doesn't really make a lot of sense and was rarely relevant.
Kinda strong in its current incarnation, but Terran needs all the card advantage it can get, even if it's pseudo.

2016-04-19 07:52:58: jameschanlee edited Dropship:

1/3 -> 0/3. Deals combat damage -> Attacks and isn't blocked. Too strong otherwise

2016-04-19 07:47:01: jameschanlee edited Colossus:

Disruptor -> Colossus. Better art plus more flexible (early game spell or late game creature.)

Vitenka: Wahahahahaha yeah you're right that's actually hilarious. I'll change the wording, that shouldn't happen. Hahaha. Might just stick with supertrample.

2016-04-18 13:17:36: Vitenka commented on Ultralisk

This also lets it damage you when it blocks. Which is... very rarely going to be useful. But hey; it's there. Maybe the opponent has a creature that does bad things if it is unblocked and worse things if it dies?

2016-04-18 11:09:58: jameschanlee commented on Ultralisk

Alex: Yep, this is gonna be in combat a lot. since it has hexproof there's really no killing this other than by combat damage, so I'm thinking of an ability that synergizes with the Ravage keyword. see: Hydralisk, (((Contaminate))) The image of an Ultralisk barreling through blockers without a damn is really flavorful.

But there's really nothing wrong with normal supertrample, and we might just be trying again to be cute for the hell of it. shrug.

2016-04-18 10:13:47: Alex commented on Ultralisk

Moving away from protection is an entirely commendable aim.

This looks okay - like the superest form of supertrample yet. Rhox can choose to either a) kill the 2/2 and the 1/1, or b) hit the player. This lets you divide the 6 damage pretty much any way you choose. Not sure if the complexity is worth it over just normal trample though. Are the other factions going to be blocking on 0/6s much?

2016-04-18 10:08:46: Alex commented on Aggressive Mutation

Reminds me of Arm with Aether. But apart from that, no, Hunter's Prowess and Cleaver Riot are as close as it comes.

2016-04-18 10:07:04: Alex commented on Zerg Spawning Pool

Looks fine. Gaea's Anthem suggests this would be fine, and might read a little more cleanly, if it just said "Creatures you control" rather than "Zerg creatures you control".

2016-04-18 10:06:17: Alex commented on Personal Cloaking

Looks fine. Looks pretty wacky in most sets, but with the Terran Switch mechanic it's pretty cool. Slightly weird that when this is on a Wraith, you can Switch it to toggle between an evasion ability and a better evasion ability.

"Equip 2" wants to be "Equip {2} ". (I'd be happy to apply that kind of proofreading/templating update myself, but only if the cardset owner explicitly gives me the go-ahead.)

2016-04-18 07:45:24: jameschanlee edited Ultralisk:

Requesting for feedback for this ability. Does this work? It's slightly different than the usual. If a Rhox is blocked by a 2/2 and a 1/1, it can either kill the 2/2, kill the 1/1, or damage the player. Here, the ultralisk can kill the 2/2, skip the 1/1, and deal 3 damage to a player. Is it worth the complexity?

2016-04-18 07:32:02: jameschanlee commented on Ultralisk

Previously:

Ultralisk {4} {g} {g}
Creature - Zerg [r]
Trample Protection from noncreature (This can't be dealt damage, enchanted, equipped, or targeted by anything that isn't a creature.)
6/5

Protection is a really bad, confusing, and inelegant ability.
Haven't had the chance to draw this yet so ability might be too strong.

2016-04-18 07:28:03: jameschanlee commented on Swarm Host

Before:

Swarm Host {3} {g}
Creature - Zerg [u]
At the beginning of combat on your turn, put a 1/1 green Zerg creature token with haste onto the battlefield. Exile that token at end of combat.
2/4

Synergize with Ravage.
Need to playtest more, but Zerg plays best when it's allowed to "cycle" its creatures - attack, everyone dies, fresh batch comes in.
