viriss Looking good! Yeah after my last post I started to wonder about the mana cost as well. I think you could lower it and make the -6 -7. Maybe 3WUB for -7 and 2WUB for -8. consider tweaking the ultimate and the starting loyalty in relation to the mana cost is my best guess at how to polish this up. 

Edit: I'm wondering if his +1 is his flavor for you or what exactly. It is interesting and potentially not too shabby but its very artificer where I'm not sure I see that in the ultimate.

I'm going to do a second pass on my walker tonight. any feedback would be appreciated. Especially how to get the mana symbols in the emblem/walker gametext to look correct instead of (color)

Thanks very much Daij_Djan ! that was driving me nuts! you are my hero of the day! I've updated my original cards. Here are spoilers so I don't clutter the space.

bagz: Anapa might want a starting loyalty. Also, I think you cold word it something like "Target creature card in your graveyard gains Embalm until end of turn, where is its comverted mana cost."


My entry:



Embra, Arena Master
Legendary Planeswalker - Embra
: Up to two target creatures get +2/+0 and gain first strike until end of turn.
: At the beginning of the next daclare attackers step this turn, you may put a creature card from your hand onto the battlefield tapped and attacking. If you do, return it to your hand at end of combat.
: You get an emblem with “Whenever a creature you control attacks, you may pay . If you do, create a tapped and attacking token that’s a copy of that creature. Exile the token at end of combat.”
Embra, Arena Master can be your commander.


Yea I know, like doesn't have enough beatdown commanders already...

EDIT: Added render. Thanks bagz for finding this nice art.
Also, I reallized that she probably should put the creature on the battlefield during declare attackes and not before.
Oh and I guess she sould be legendary... I'm still not used to that.

Fabrica, Volatile Mekanism
Legendary Planeswalker- Fabrica
: Create a 1/2 colorless Construct artifact creature token.
: Switch target creature’s power and toughness until your next turn.
: For each player, search that player’s library for a permanent card, put that card onto the battlefield under your control, then shuffle that library.
~ can be your commander.

Judging is up!

bagz : First of all, I will have that like the card overall. After a few tweaks I would even consider playing it as a commander. But I have some issues whit its current state. The gain loyalty effect seems truly busted. Play that with Ashnod's Altar and you can get the emblem just the turn it comes out. The -3 seems pretty weak to me, I would consider taking it to -2. And with the ultimate: Non-repeatable emblems for planeswalkers commanders don't seem to me as a nice choice, unless they are an instant win when you land them. So, with all of this I still think that it's a good starting point for a pretty solid commander. (Also, is Orzhov, all praise Orzhov)

Akai Ryu: I will start with a minor issue that probably only bothers me: It has too many Xs! Also the 0 ability is very strong, more in those colors, and the "untap all creatures that attacked this turn" doesn't fit BR in my opinion. I will consider adding white or removing that part.. The second ability is my favourite of all three, feels very blackish. I have crossed feeling with the ultimate. It can deal tons of damage but probably would act mostly as a repeatable board wipe. I think you can change many things.

viriss : I should say I preferred the other +1 ability you had... The newer +1 feels more control oriented than creature oriented to me. I like the -1, seems pretty cool, punishing your opponets while giving them a sweet! The emblem is true raw power. I said that I dislike one-use-only emblems in planeswalkers but whit this it seems that it will amlost awalys win you the game so I think its a good choice. Also you could change "Your opponents play whit their rands revealed" to "You may look at your opponent hands" to make it feel more Esper. Overall I like it.

kinotherapy : Nice one you have here. The first abilty works as an offensive+defensive ability and makes it inmune to 1 power creatures. The -2 is okey, nothing remarkable. And the emblem is nice, undeniably strong butm, as I've been saying, i like repeatable emblems in planeswalkers (But well, if you can repeat it you have probably aready won the game). The more I look at here, the more I like her. Nice job!

Tesagk : I have some problems here. First having four abilites makes the card look very cramped. The first ability is ok, good token production. Whit the second ability, is it supposed to be a +2? If so you have a probolem with the order. Anyways I don't like it. Doesn't feel white nor red because the sacrifice a creature clause. And now you have two ultimates. Your emeblem is a "one-use-only." I would have said "You get an adittional combat phase each turn" or something like that, in order to allow you to stack, combat phases. And well, the -12 wins you the game almost always but its 12 loyalty. You are not going to get to 12 loyalty never. I would have removed it.

Daij_Djan: This one is truly nice indeed. You make tokens, then those tokens become unblockable and after that you get to draw cards from them. I don't have anything to say, it feels truly solid.

Lady Mapi : Well, sorry for the challenge, I feel bad for you. Anyways your card is probably impractical in black border but feels like a good silver-bordered choice. The first an second abilites play nice togheter (omiting that they break all rules in commander). Anf the ultimates isn't utter bullshit in my oppinion. That makes the card truly interesting. It can basically act as infinite recursion while playing well wiht the -2. So, a nice un-commander you made here.

Flo00 : Nice planeswalker. The first abilty is a nice fit for RW, and orients the deck to a weenie strategy probably. The second abilty can cheat dragons so it's nice. Also first well whit red. And the emblem is a good mana sink. You know, that canbe so udefull for boros decks. Everything seems nice but I see her more going in the 99 that in the command zone.

augur : The first ability is what can be expected from most creature commanders, token making. In your case it works well with the second ability: you can use it to turn your 1/2 in a 2/1 or to instantly kill Doran, the Siege Tower. Hard decision... The ultimate reminds me the ultimate of the new Tezzeret but it is always to steal your opponet's fatties.

Alright, this was harder than I thought it would be. So the winners:

Grats to the winners. I should have just gone with three abilities, got greedy.

Big thanks for then win, glad you liked my card

Btw, mrlozano , if you hover the mouse over a user's avatar or their username the forum shows you their tag

For your next challenge.. let's go with an old classic, shall we? Pick one of these four locations and design a commander living there!

Super strong in my opinion. Doesnt mean its OP just imagining all the ways I could ping my opponents into an early grave w this. my fav commander colors too.

Location #2

Runo Stromkirk, Nephalia Patron
Legendary Creature - Vampire Wizard
Flying
Whenever Runo Stromkirk deals combat damage to a creature, it becomes a Vampire in addition to its other types. Gain control of it.
: Runo Stromkirk loses flying and gains indestructible. It must be blocked this turn if able.
1/4

It's a pity that he wasn't included in the Arcane Wizardry deck. He was going to be, but they cut him. I dare you to tell me that third picture isn't Nephalia, especially after Emrakul came.
