Here's my crack. I'm really against black-bordered crossover cards but I figured as a custom card it's harmless. |

Is it possible to make a saga on MSE? Am I just glossing over the template?

Dishonored is one of the best stealth games out there, so that's what I picked. Here's a nod to tallboys, which are pretty terrifying to come across - they're heavily armoured guards on stilts that can and will set you on fire.  |

Not sure if this will end up my final entry... This was a tricky prompt, if only because it's so wide open. Even narrowing down to SW, there are almost infinite subjects, so I tried to go with something relatively fundamental:  I had a fun time working on that set symbol, even if the lo-fi export makes it look like a frisbee  |

 Projection   Sorcery  Create a token that’s a copy of target noncreature artifact. Sacrifice it at the beginning of the next end step. "Steel is my body, and fire is my blood."Pleasantly surprised to find that when it comes to one-word spell names, "Projection" wasn't taken yet. Bonus flavor points if you use this to copy Equipment like Archer (Fate) usually does. |

 EDIT: I nerfed her a bit. Also. Illaoi is my favourite champ in League of Legends, which is why I chose her instead of some of the more popular champs which would be way more likely to actually get crossed over. I do find LoL's world to be more in line with Magic's world, so it wouldn't be as offensive as The Walking Dead. {OLD}  |

You've all seen I Heard You Paint Houses, right?
War-Made Psychopath  Creature--Human Soldier  Trample
: Put a +1/+1 counter on War-Made Psychopath, then destroy target creature or planeswalker an opponent controls with converted mana cost less than or equal to the number of +1/+1 counters on War-Made Psychopath. 2/2 |

It's a lazy "design". It's from Hearthstone(kinda exact copy:D), but lore wise I tried to mimick Grim Dawn, in grim dawn aetherials are able to take over dead and living creatures body and transform, twist them, but they able to take over non-living things as well, that's why I put artifact there.

Back in 2004, right before I got into Magic, I enjoyed Duel Masters quite a lot. I watched the TV show, I played the PS2 game, and I played a little bit of the physical card game as well. Duel Masters still exists in Japan, but in most other parts of the world it died out for quite a while, until it was rebooted as Kaijudo.
I still keep my old Duel Masters beginner deck around somewhere, and I remember a few of the cards in it. One of more memorable ones to me is Rothus, the Traveler, so I decided to make a Magic version of this guy. I kept the stats similar, but the ability is quite different, although still a callback to the original.

viriss : "You have no maximum hand hand."
Go home, Connie, you're drunk.
Ral: Now, now, don't be so harsh. Mebbe she's just singing the ending to Black Water.
What, she just breaks out into the end of a song at the end of a sentence?
Ral: Makes sense to me.
Sounds like a stroke to me. |

Due to lack of decent art for my previous idea, here's a new entry which should allow for some more generic art.  {Text} Divine Winds   Enchantment Whenever one or more creatures an opponent controls attacks, return ~ to its owner's hand. If you do, return target attacking creature to it's owner's hand. So terrible was the Khan's advance that the skies shrieked in anguish and seas reeled in vengeance.{Old Entry}Hope IRL inspirations count as here's one from Pompey's triumph after his African campaign. Instead of the usual four horses pulling his chariot, Pompeii instead hitched up four elephants in a show of power. However, due to their size, he embarrasingly had to dismount in order to cross Rome's Pomerium to complete his triumph. Humiliating Entrance Enchantment  When a creature enters the battlefield, sacirifice ~. If you do that creature gets -3/-3 until end if turn and it's controller discards a card. |

Humiliating Entrance 2B Sorcery {C} Target creature gets -3/-3 until end if turn. It's controller discards a card. The execution doesn't quite match the flavor for me. Mebbe try this:
Humiliating Entrance Instant The next time a creature would enter the battlefield this turn, it enters with -3/-3 until end of turn instead. If that creature dies this turn, its controller discards a card.

After judging my first attempt at representing Transistor's functions to be too parasitic, I decided to enter a slightly modified version instead. Entry: |

That's an interesting take, though I'd probably apply it in a Standstill/ Grave Peril format. I'll fiddle around with the design a bit now that I'm off work; I already need to reflavour the card due to the lack of appropriate art for the render. |
