amuseum: It was like that, but it changed. It may have had to do with my explanation on Ally's Cry's comments.
Those 4 results all probably come from the red mechanic in the Community Set. There's technically more in that set, but, if I remember, we were split on how we wanted to template it. A Prodigal Pyromancer that deals 2 damage when the ability resolves needs to say 'no untapped creatures'. A creature that gets +2/+2, however, just needs to say "as long as all creatures you control are tapped." You know... because the ability doesn't mean anything if the creature isn't on the table...
On a separate side note, Battalion used to not require the creature with Battalion to be one of the attacking creatures. So you're technically treading really close to the original impetus behind the mechanic. Not that I think there's anything wrong with that... it's a good mechanic. I hope comes back a little closer to this someday.
how about no untapped creatures. it hasnt been done yet on official cards. the closest is a loose cycle in Prophecy mentioning no untapped lands. however there are 4 results in multiverse here.
I know I kinda-suggested using a threshold of three, but this is way too similar to battalion now that I think about it. It's a bit more open-ended because you can have Merfolk Looters helping, and it's cool (and strong) that this works both on defense and outside of combat, but I'm wondering if there's a way to make this not feel like it's stepping on battalion's toes.
Yeah, either of those would be fine.
4/2 maybe? or 3/3?
Oh, nice call. This at first looks way better than Phyrexian Rager, but the way you have to play the card this turn or lose it makes it much harder to use after you've already spent 4 mana on this. I think this is fair - well, perhaps except that red and black don't normally get Order of the Sacred Bell at all, let alone with a benefit.
I love the name :)
that's the point; it's a big risk to use. i like your little story :)
It's balanced; but it's amusing.
P1: I am willing to discard my turn to get out a big creature early!
P2: Fine. Big wall to stop it, or O-ring it or something.
P1: Grr...
P2: Hey, remember that creature? I'ma gonna kill it now. Your turn. Discard your hand please :)
P1: Argleblargleglurph.
does this seem balanced?
It's based off Crack the Earth; there isn't much token generation in this cube, but if i decide to put some in i'll try to keep cheap token gen out of red and black
Heh, it's quite funny to see a negative ETB trigger on a soulfire creature, because soulfire isn't optional.
Whoa. That is one scary LD spell. Do red or black have any token generation at 1 or 2 mana? If so, this card could lead to some painful blowouts.
