Hmmm. Intriguing ability, certainly. There are some lands that would benefit from this ability - Horizon Canopy, Barbarian Ring and its cycle, a few others - but not very many. (Sadly it doesn't actually help City of Brass). And this doesn't really scream Mirrodin to me... Mirrodin didn't especially have a "colourless" theme. I feel that a card for Mirrodin should explicitly say "artifact" on it somewhere.
See Challenge # 120.
A Mirrodin version of Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth, which gives lands the "Cave" ability... This seems inevitable for Mirrodin. It's obviously usually not very useful! But hopefully has a niche with lands that DON'T have this ability built in, or with anything that cares about colourless mana.
I wanted to add something about artifacts, but hopefully colourless makes the point well enough and everyone is avoiding more artifact lands.
Alara, search for a tri-land :)
ETA: And Mirrodin which gives all of your lands tap for colourless.
See Challenge # 120.
I had lots of ideas for the mini-planes of the shards, but wasn't sure about Alara as a whole, but this seemed to make sense. I'm not sure if it works as-is.
Thank you! Although it should probably be intuitive AND correct, if it wasn't obvious to you and Jay, it probably needs to be clearer, even though I thought it was obvious from the flavour what it was for.
What if it was "For each color to which your devotion is two or more, add one mana of that color to your mana pool?" The devotion might have to come up then, though.
And Mirrodin Redeemed
Oh, hee. I hadn't quite realised that was what this would do. But no, the wording looks accurate to me.
make both sides legendary and tweak names
And Zendikar Awakened
See Challenge # 120.
I wanted to do the worldwake half of zendikar even though it's really the same plane. The ability has to be something like this to me.
However, I'm not really happy with it. The sorcery-restriction is ugly. It's too fiddly with lots of small creatures, but I don't want to fix a size because I need the idea of the lands growing. And there's no clear reason for it to be legendary.
Suggestions?
I meant, it blocks this if it can, but if it can't block this, it can't block anything else either. Imagine a goblin furiously leaping in the air at the sprite, letting a 5/5 crash through for damage behind it :) Is the wording wrong?
When does "and can't block a different creature" come into play? Just against two-headed defenders?
I'd use it in a Reaper King deck. Probably the one that tries to cast all ten of the God auras (Clout of the Dominus, Shield of the Oversoul, Steel of the Godhead etc) on Reaper King.
But yes, I could see an argument this coming down to only ask for devotion 1 to each colour. That makes it quite a lot more exciting - too much? If you've cast Figure of Destiny turn 1, Deathrite Shaman and Delver of Secrets turn 2 then you get a spicy reward, but it's pretty hard to trigger it very early otherwise. I guess my Cromat deck would absolutely love it then, as well as all my Reaper King decks.
I like it!
Perilous Zendikar
See Challenge # 120.
This is slightly too wordy but I wanted to try to capture the "trap" flavour of Zendikar. Hence I went with R, even though Soul of Zendikar is G.
Kinda hard to use though - by the time you've got double mana of each of the five colours into play, do you really need mana of each of the colours?
It's not completely useless, and the flavour is good - so it works It just doesn't seem all that useful to me.
Oooh, stonkingly powerful the turn it flips.
Pretty good after that too, of course; but an interesting timing problem.
Created Innistrad, Cloaked in Darkness.
Not sure if the front side of this should make
or
.
Created for Challenge # 120.
Nice!
