Card of the Week Contest #211: Something old, something new

I'm making a new card for Valifax and no one can stop me

So, here is something from Zendikar

Titans' Return
Legendary Sorcery

(You may cast a legendary sorcery only if you control a legendary creature or planeswalker.)

Look at the top seven cards of your library. You may exile up to three legendary cards from among them. For as long as those cards remain exiled, you may play those cards from exile without paying their mana cost.

It is not so long time ago when three enormous titans, who were imprisoned for centuries and centuries, were liberated.

Magic and MSE you say?

Liege of Vectron
Creature - Human Spellshaper
, , Discard a card: Target opponent loses X life and you gain X life, where X is your devotion to Vectron. (Each time you've praised Vectron this turn counts towards your devotion to Vectron.)
"My Lord... I still remember."
1/2

Gonna add a render some day

Something from magic's history? What about the guy who's name is practically synonymous with history itself?

Here's a Saga-shaped throwback to my very first block. I got deep into the lore and rooted hard for Mirrodin Pure. Little did I know that another destiny had been planned from the very beginning...



Mirrodin's Compleation
Enchantment - Saga
I: Create X 1/1 white Horror artifact creature tokens, where X is the number of artifacts you control.
II: Target creature gets +X/+X or -X/-X until end of turn, where X is the number of artifacts you control.
III: Draw X cards and target player loses X life and you gain X life, where X is the number of artifacts you control.

Here's some of my design thoughts:
The mana cost is all-but-red, because Urabrask is busy doing his own thing in the Furnace Layer and harboring Mirran refugees.
The whole card depends on artifacts you control, because Phyrexia took hold on Mirrodin largely due to its nature as an artificial, metal plane.
Ability one makes sure that you have a sufficiently mighty Phyrexian army. I picked white for the Horror tokens because of Elesh Norn's priests - while white Phyrexia wasn't well-represented in the original block, token creation is certainly a white ability and I wanted to give the Machine Orthodoxy a nod.
Ability two lets you fight the war, either buffing one of your creatures to break through the lines or just straight up kill off their strongest resistance.
Ability three wins you the war (and likely the game, if they haven't cleared out your board or blown up the enchantment). You can harness Jin-Gitaxias' knowledge engines and Sheoldred's dread power to tip the game massively in your favor.
This card might be overpowered; I'm the last person to have playtested it. Hopefully the 7 mana cost and 4 color requirement make it balanced enough, as well as needing enough artifacts to make it work and keeping them alive through your opponent's interference. I think it makes for a compelling minigame, as they try to stamp out your infestation while you try to maximize the Phyrexian presence on the plane for your ultimate victory.

White Lotus
Artifact
, sacrifice ~: Add three mana of any one color.  Activate this ability only if an opponent controls two or more lands than you.

Reference to (obviously) Black Lotus.  White likes to play "catch-up" with mana.

Debating:
- Rarity at
- Costing (, , , etc.)
- How many more lands an opponent needs
- Pitching idea entirely

MSE History you say?





Huge thanks to cajun for the Saga prototype. The template is not ready yet, but together he and I were able to make this amalgam

Here's my attempt. The mentioned keyword abilities are all the (still evergreen) ones that have been printed on green two-drops throughout the years.
This guy really knows how to bear. He also knows how to elk and spider, but that's just a tad less impressive.



Amalgam Druid
Creature - Human Druid
At the beginning of each combat, Amalgam Druid gains hexproof until end of turn if you control a creature with hexproof. The same is true for deathtouch, defender, first strike, flying, haste, reach, trample, and vigilance.
2/2

My entry is represents the deadly poison counters. This design is not a Phyrexia Infect card, but is like the original cards like Pit Scorpion




1 Edit: Turned into a sorcery from a creature based on feedback.
2 Edit: increased mana cost from to also wording it so the tokens don't have an EtB effect. (based on feedback)

Question: Are the img on the front page of the last CotW becoming a clickable link to the CotW thread or the newest CotW Contest? Like on the old page?

Wait, what?

Will be fixed soon^TM

You're right. I turned it into a Sorcery card instead. thanks of feedback.

The infamous Seer's Glass, reborn as an artifact. A bit worried about repeatable fateseal, but I'm ok with this for the sake of the reference

Sisters' Chosen
Creature — Human Samurai
Vigilance
Fealty — ~ gets +1/+1 and has indestructible as long as you control a legendary permanent that shares a color with it.
"Michiko Konda swore such suffering would never again come to pass. We are here to ensure that." 
2/3

Continues with the "legendary matters" theme of Kamigawa.
