A cute little mechanic for common I've been thinking of. This card trades a potential round of blocking for a small boon. But what is the ability, creature type, and the name of the card?
Note: I think it's safe to imagine that this mechanic would probably end up on Red cards (because it has an interesting interaction with Haste) and Black cards (since etb tapped is already a black thing). It also seems reasonable in Blue or Green, and there's actually a good argument to spread this keyword among the colors since you wouldn't want to stuff a draft archetype with too many of these. I'm Just throwing that out there before people start giving the keyword mechanic names like "Divinity" or "Community" or something along those lines.
Wall of Berries
Creature - Plant Wall
Harvest -- You may have ~ ETB tapped. If you do, gain 2 life.
OK, that's a bit white, but red and black can harvest, either like spring harvest festival stuff, or like souls :) I tried to choose a word that would make sense on either something being harvested or someone doing the harvesting.
Name: Holy Barrier
Creature Type: Wall
Mechanic: Stall
These aren't coming out with the flavour I expected, but it's the flavour I found :)
Unlikely Friend
Creature - Faerie Witch
Gift -- You may have ~ ETB tapped. If you do, gain 2 life.

Sorry about the long voting period everyone. I just started my road trip vacation, and it's sucked away all my usual desk time. Not that I mind so much. ;)
Jack wins this week. Sorry amuseum for naming after voting went up. If I wasn't so preoccupied, I would have added you to the poll.
I think it's pretty obvious that I can't be on top of NTC while I'm on vacation. So I suppose NTC needs to go on a little vacation too. See everybody with (((NTC #077))) in about a week and a half!
Thank you jmg! Have a good holiday!
I like "Contribute" too (or maybe "donate"?)
I was also considering something like "The Cavalry" as in "dramatic rescue" and the ability something like "Entrance" or "Arrival", but I couldn't quite get it to work. (And the connotations of "Cavalry" as "the good guys" or "the pro-order guys" are not really appropriate.)
Have a good vacation! See you soon!
