 I wanted to add a flavor text on it but it was too long so I quote it here. To see a thing one has to comprehend it. An armchair presupposes the human body, its joints and limbs; a pair of scissors, the act of cutting. What can be said of a lamp or a car? The savage cannot comprehend the missionary’s Bible; the passenger does not see the same rigging as the sailors. If we really saw the world, maybe we would understand it.JLB's novel |

Rough concept but I wanted to get it out there before I forgot.  Foppish Old Man   Creature - Human Citizen   : Each opponent draws a card, then discards a card. You may draw a card, then discard a card. Then, if you discard a card that shares a card type with a card discarded by an opponent this turn, transform Foppish Old Man. 1/1 "Unfortunately, your rescuer is no beautiful young lady, Miss Detective. You must be content with this clever old man!"/// Jarl Mordenheim, Duke of CrimeLegendary Creature - Human Noble Your opponents can’t cast spells with odd mana values if an opponent has discarded a card with an odd value this turn.   , : Each opponent discards a card. Activate only as a sorcery. 2/4 "You must stand clear, my damsel, or be trodden underfoot."Flavor is intended to be riffs on various depictions of Moriarty. |

Me trying to figure out if this is another fate-inspired entry or if only the art is....hmm.... FGO JP Spoilers ahead: {FGO JP Spoilers}Truth be told, I originally wanted to do Sherlock because as of recently he is a slam dunk for this exact prompt, but I feel like that twist is relatively recent and I didn't want to spoil someone. Said twist is also still in progress and I'm not sure how I'd feel about representing something that doesn't have any explicit portrayal yet. I eventually decided to do Moriarty instead for the spoilered reasons above and went for a top-down design starting with the opening line he gives from Shinjuku (which is referenced on the front half of the card). Eventually I settled on having the idea of the back half of the card roughly capture the moment where he absorbs Sherlock's saint graph to try and become functionally invincible - he was originally supposed to ban odd and even spells based on what had been discarded that turn, but I felt that was too oppressive (since most similar Magic cards force you to pick one or the other) and limited him to odd. The fact he only uses odd numbers on the front half of the card and only features even ones on the back is sort of a pleasant coincidence but it's one of my favorite small things about the resulting product. There are some other rough influences here and there between general Moriarty and Fate's version (The looting is meant to represent him setting up a complex plan that relies on gaming people, though I did have the "dealing" vibes of the Poker card callouts in mind as well), but I wanted to give the card the best Magic-y feeling I could so I tried to mix some vibes of original Moriarty (the back half FT in particular references The Final Problem and is meant to evoke its mindgames, unlike the original effect I had in mind) and original flavor (being a Noble disguised as a commoner Citizen, instead of a more professor-equivalent class like Wizard, and the fact the Detective in question does not necessarily have to be thought of as a Holmes equivalent.) |

In short, it is indeed at least partially fate inspired. It's a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one XD |

If you Know by the name Knights of Zodiac, you must be brazilian, spanish, or french. SAINT SEYA! I'm brazilian by the way. Nope. I'm a Japanese. I'm glad to see a Seiya's fan. I saw someone wrote South American prefer Seiya to Dragon Ball. But I didn't know here is a South American, so it was a bet. Did zodiac hierarchy exist in your country? In Japan, Virgo boys had been teased by other boys, being called a flaming * until Seiya was well known. After that, they could counter them argueing they're Shaka. On the other hand, Cancer and Pisces boys were treated worse. Btw, I'm an Aquarius. I understand that you're describing people being discriminated against but I still need to remove that word since it violates Rule 6 (No obscene language) - please censor it in the future even if you're just quoting a person. - Zephyr |

However, Brazil is quite problematic in some questions. So responding your question, there is no sign hierarchy. |

The "hierarchy" I told is only a child play for 6-12 ys old boys and not a serious discrimination was done in children. Apart from that, I will be cautious about usage of discriminatory words. |

{Shiryu of Libra, the Saint/ Sanfonier of the Night } Personally, I think Shiryu is green. It's color of his cloth and he lives with nature, and it makes balance as I think Seiya is white, Hyoga is blue, Ikki is obviousely red, and Shun is black. But I can acknowledge your color choice. Blue seems to be the main color of your him. He is the most intelligent and has much knowledge so his personality can be thought as blue. White will be his quiet and self-sacrificing charactger and red is his inner hot soul. And also, the combination implies his monkish life for it is Jeskai color. I want to ask you what of his nature is depicted by haste, for I can guess vigilance and two shield counters are libra shield, first strike is libra spear but I can't figure what haste means. About the card power, it is too given. Especially, giving "etb or attack" trigger to a creature with haste is too much. Moreover, repeatable bounce generates a bunch of tempo advantage. My overall impression on him is "Akroma for 5 mana". It is not impossible to measure for him with exile etc but if it is printed as it is, I am not surprised if 24 or more copies of him are in top 8 decks and eventually banned. If I modify only its mana cost, I will valuate him at least 7 mana. In addition, thank you for your Portuguese 廬山昇龍覇. Literally it means Dragon's Rage? I am glad if you tell me which do you like among English and Portuguese names. I feel English ver is a bit long and redundant though all of original meanings are included in it on the other hand Portuguese one is simple and cool but too many meanings are omitted. {Dwarf Fighter/ pernicious} Nice retro taste. His stout will which nullifies menace and stubborn flesh is cool and dwarvish. One thing I feel to want him have more is taste of wizardry. For example, he is from Legacy of Llylgamyn 4-5F then give him "B: gains swampwalk" and "W: gains plainswalk" to his neutrality which allows him to appear both good and evil floor. Or, give him an ability to roll d20 when he dies for spell or ability and if the result is 15-20 then he come back from the graveyard without -1/-1 for he has 30% saving throw against death. Btw, the card layout is almost cool but it easily confuses players to feel him 1/1. {winner} Sanfonier of the Night In an aspect of card balance pernicious's dwarf is superior to Shiryu. But I considered importantly what in the original work is represented by the card. |

 This is a famous joke told when we discuss about the true identity of the One Piece treasure. And it implicitly referring some final episodes of boring mangas whose authors couldn't come up with a good punchline regardless of they foreshadowed something. |

The fun in One Piece, is that it would make sense once you read the history. However I think it will be something really great. |
