On The Oncoming Storm (reply):

This set sort of stalled for a while. I'm going to try rebuilding from the commons up.

First thing I'm doing is getting rid of gestalt and entwine. Gestalt is a really tribal mechanic, and since this isn't a tribal set, it doesn't fit. Entwine somewhat works, but it feels tacked on (it is). I need some new mechanics that fit the flavor of a time travel world. Also, a mechanic that represents the Doctor going around saving innocent people from monster would be nice. I would love to hear suggestions, because I can't think of anything.

In the second draft, I'm going to try to keep the complexity and power at reasonable levels. I don't feel that I went too high power-wise, but complexity was definitely through the roof. Who likes making vanilla creatures anyway?

I'm also going to include more of the Doctor's companions as legendary creatures. I don't know why I thought having only Rory, Jack, and "Mickey" was a good idea. I also have no idea how Cthulhu got in here.

Artifact
As long as Weeping Angel isn’t a creature, it has indestructible.
If a creature dealt damage by Weeping Angel this turn would die, exile that creature instead.
At the beginning of combat on your turn, you may have Weeping Angel become an Angel creature with power and toughness each equal to the number of exiled cards until end of combat.

On Adipose Pill:

­adipose offering. Oof, this design was unworkable

On Weeping Angel:

Just previewed: Weeping Angel. I was close

On Nocturn:

You can now check out Inquisitor Greyfax for how Wizards handles multiple copyright holders.

On The Oncoming Storm:

I'm hoping "The Oncoming Storm" will be a card name, personally. :)

On The Oncoming Storm:

Over a decade later, and WotC finally caught up to me

On Time Eater:

Has the old problem that you technically have to keep adding the counter even once its past the point of any sanity (assuming you get past the fourth). But eh, it's a rare, implementation is allowed to be a bit janky.

I kind of like how it blows itself up, though.

On Void Stuff Saturation:

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

On Nocturn:

And yes it does — the copyright line must be "™ & © 2015 Wizards of the Coast", verbatim.

On Nocturn:

Doesn't need to. Both I and the BBC also hold copywrite to parts of the card. But since you're looking that closely at the copywrite line, also note the date. :P
