Time to give white some more card advantage - so inspired by Squadron Hawk:

Will ponder about which card to use as my entry later |

I know this isn't the place to ask, but my MSE isn't working for some reason. Also can I make my own threads? I'm also new here, so I don't know where to ask this.

Orion Rings : Can the card(s) mentioned also be custom homebrews? Yes, but try not to make too many custom cards because it might get confusing. Two or three, including the base card, is probably a good amount. Here's my submission:  NOT THE BEES! Mentioned cards |

Archangel of Requital   Creature — Zombie Angel  If you control a Liliana planeswalker, you may remove a loyalty counter from her and exile a card named Archangel of Tithes from your graveyard rather than pay ~'s mana cost. Flying Whenever a creature attacks you or a planeswalker you control, if ~ is untapped, you gain 1 life. Whenever a creature blocks, if ~ is attacking, that creature's controller loses 1 life. 5/3

 {Old Version}  I tried to find a precedent for a card that uses the name of another card, but I couldn't.Thanks, Daij_Djan . For reference, one of the meanings of "excoriate" is "to strip off or remove the skin". |

@ PEacefulOtter: I'm not at my computer right now, so I can't move your thread - but I'll do so later on. (Also you can create threads in all forum section except this one, actually.) What exactly isn't working? Does the program start? Do you get an error message? Does the error only occur when trying to open a set file? |

Orion Rings: You forgot one.
Iji, Freed from Surface  Legendary Planeswalker--Ada  : Search your graveyard, hand, library, and exile for a card named Ada’s Reflection and put it onto the battlefield. If you searched your library this way, shuffle it.
 : You may sacrifice a creature named Ada’s Reflection. If you do, you may choose a card you own from outside the game named Ada of Mirrors and put it onto the battlefield.
 : If you control a permanent named Iji, Freed from Surface, a permanent named Ada of Mirrors, and a permanent named Ada’s Reflection, for each permanent on the battlefield, you may create a token copy of that permanent, except that token’s not legendary.
Iji, Freed from Surface can only ever be your commander.
For reference:
Ada's Reflection  Creature--Reflection Minion Ada’s Reflection enters the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it.
When Ada’s Reflection enters the battlefield, proliferate. 0/0
Ada of Mirrors Legendary Planeswalker--Ada  : Populate.
 : Proliferate.
: Create a token that’s a copy of target creature.
 : Populate, then populate, then populate, then proliferate, then proliferate, then proliferate.

II: This turn, each Goblin you control enters the battlefield with an additional +1/+1 counter. {Spoiler}{Ludwig himself}  Syr Ludwig Needlehead Legendary Creature - Goblin Knight When @ enters the battlefield, it deals damage equal to its power to any target. 1/1 |

I wanted to play in the same space as Alpine Houndmaster or Nissa's Encouragement, searching for more than one themed card. It was also important that I create both the card doing the searching and one of the cards being searched for. I'm just glad I could find unofficial Karametra art. Might make a whole cycle out of these.
EDIT: Thanks Flo00 for informing me the image link was corrupted. Fixed. |

That card is actually the reason it's called Unyaro Hornet rather than Unyaro Bee. Also, it seems playable when cast for free, so I didn't include it in the list. |

Ii did my usual procedure and hit the random button on scryfall until I found something inspiring:  Thran Foundry Worker  Artifact Creature - Assembly-Worker , , Sacrifice Thran Foundry Worker: Put target card named Thran Foundry you own in exile into your hand. 2/3 Huge thanks sdfkjgh! I knew I had seen that somewhere before as well, I'm just no good with names at all. |

Flo00 : I know I've seen that monogram before...*checks Gatherer for Christopher Moeller*...no, that's not it. Wait, the M is prominently on top, terminal leg drops down past that crossbar into an I? No, the crossbar has to be significant. Wait! I know!
