"How disappointingly juvenile!" retorts the fox as he dodges the vial with a leap to the right. "You've much tempering to do, little child!" With that and a quick spell, As'han disappears in a flash of blinding light.

Khon notes the odd apparatus attached to the woman's back, and approaches her, curious about the unusual device. "Greetings... I could not help but notice the unusual contraption that you wear. Am I correct that it is a mechanism intended to provide you with flight capabilities?"Skystrider Harness  Artifact - Equipment  Equipped creature gets +1/+1 and has flying. Equipped creature can only block creatures with flying. Equip |

blueseclipseCyria grins back. "Yep! Works pretty damn well, too! But, if you wanna ask about crazy machines, what the hell are you?" Suddenly, a visor flips over her face, and she begins to look up and down Khon's form. Analytics Visor Artifact  : Analytics Visor gains all abilities of target permanent until the end of turn. You may activate abilities of Analytics Visor any time you could cast an instant. (Flying isn't so good when the other creature has flying, too!) Skyrider Harness - This is a fine common, albeit a little weak considering the downside. 8/10.

Skyrider Harness - This is a fine common, albeit a little weak considering the downside. 8/10.  , costs  more to cast, and can't be activated for multiple permanents in a single turn, let alone being able to give those abilities flash. That doesn't factor in that this can copy loyalty abilities and use them as instants - effectively giving you the ult from Teferi, Temporal Archmage for a ridiculously cheap price. I'd recommend upping the cmc and activation costs by each, upping it to rare, and restricting the types it can copy to artifact, creature, land and maybe enchantment. 6/10 - I like the concept behind it, largely because I'm a fan of Experiment Kraj and we need more effects like it."I am Phyrexian," Khon replies, watching as the woman looks him over. "I have been named as Khon Vasq. I would ask now for your name."Rusted Timepiece Artifact Rusted Timepiece enters the battlefield with five rust counters on it. Whenever an opponent activates an ability of a nonland permanent they control, if it isn't their main phase, remove a rust counter from Rusted Timepiece. Then, if there are no rust counters on Rusted Timepiece, sacrifice it and destroy all nonland permanents.  : Remove a rust counter from Rusted Timepiece. |

blueseclipseCyria jumps backward. "Oh, a Phyrexian!" She laughs nervously. "Haven't met one of you before, although I have heard you guys enjoy... murdering people and taking over planes. I have a vested interest in not dying right now, so is there anything I can do to help you?"Silver-BorderedPlease Don't Kill Me!  Instant Nonland permanents you control gain indestructible until the end of turn. As long as Please Don't Kill Me! is in your graveyard, at the beginning of your upkeep, you may thank your opponents for not killing you. If you don't, sacrifice all nonland permanents you control. Rusted Timepiece - I'm not a big fan of effects that can nuke the board lasting for a long time (think O-Stone), because of the style of play it inspires where no one wants to play any cards out of fear of getting nuked, especially if they don't have activated abilities and can't force the trigger. That said, it is an interesting trigger that's pretty cool, so 7/10 overall. (also, for my last entry, it wouldn't gain the ability to activate planeswalker ults, as it has no loyalty counters on it. mirage mirror is better because it becomes a creature rather than an artifact with potentially relevant abilities.)

I do share your interest in not dying, however - it is certainly wise to avoid it if at all possible. I must ask, though, what purpose has brought you to the Arena?"Mindsnare Orb  Artifact Noncreature spells with converted mana cost 3 or less cost an additional "Discard a card" to cast. |

blueseclipseCyria sighs a breath of relief. "Oh, thank god." She perks up and starts fiddling with some equipment. "Well, I'm here to do some research and get some tinkering inspiration!" She then gives an appraising look to Khon. "Would you mind if I did some research with you? You seem like a pretty interesting specimen..."Obsessive Analytics  Sorcery As an additional cost to cast this spell, discard a card. Draw X cards, where X is 1 plus the number of cards you've discarded this turn. Mindsnare Orb - This is a pretty cool take on something like Trinisphere, and I like that the punishment isn't too overpowered. That said, I think the correct wording is "Cards with CMC 3 in player's hands have "As an additional cost to cast this spell, discard a card." or something like that. 9/10.

I also think it should be an instant, so that it can be used when opponents force you to discard. 8/10 Khon looks at Cyria, silent for a moment, before saying, "I would ask that you not refer to me as a specimen. That being said, what research were you intending to perform?"Khon Vasq has spent 100 Valor and unlocked Enchantments! Leyline of Immutability Enchantment If Leyline of Immutability is in your opening hand, you may begin the game with it on the battlefield. The value of X for spells and abilities your opponents control is zero. |

"Cyria!" Twyla's eyes gleam as she touches ground and runs up to the artificer. "I went off-plane and got you those parts you needed."
With pride, she presents the screws of peculiar shapes that she visited the market to collect.
Errand Run Instant Search your library for a card with converted mana cost 2 or less and put it into your hand. If you used  to pay for Errand Run, search your graveyard instead. The trouble, as always, was remembering what to grab.But when she looks up at Cyria's eyes, the young mage looks at her with only confusion and partial interest.
"C ― Cyria?" Has she said something wrong?
The artificer's eyes flick from Twyla to the parts in her hands, then back to Twyla. "Do I know you?"
Twyla steps back. "Oh, no."

The Wrong Portal Instant Exile up to two target attacking creatures with the same owner. Exile the top six cards of their owner's library. Shuffle all the cards exiled with The Wrong Portal together and put them on top of their owner's library. "It's the wrong portal, Saheeli, and it's gone wrong!"Disorient: I love cards like these (especially because one of the mechanics I've been thinking of making for Twyla is a pseudo that's like "Whenever a card is added to your hand faceup, <effect>"). I might've put "Until end of turn, target player ..." at the beginning instead of the end just for ease of reading, but this is nice. 10/10 |
