I'd like to propose a different spin of the Song-To-Magic Chain Game. The rules are almost the same, with only a change of how the lyrics are used to make a card and the removal of the "You cannot use any prominent lyrics..." clause:
- The challenge is a song title. It must be a real title of a real song, formatted as -Artist: "Title"-. No instrumentals.
- The answer is a Magic card, the flavor text of which is a lyric from the chosen song. You may format your chosen lyric as if it was a quote from a character, if you want. You can't use the song title itself, but everything else is fine.
- Your post will thus be made by your rating of the previously posted card, if there's any; your design and a song title for the next challenge.
hydraheadhunter Good idea, I like how it sounds. Oh, I took Comrade Jim literally as the author's name, thank you for clarifying. |

pernicious , What you think about calling this game, "The flavor of music," As a pun on "the sound of music," and a slightly more descriptive game name?
I'd like to note at this point that Comrade Jim is not a real person; they're an alagorical figure to whom I, as an inside joke with myself, attribute anything with messaging left enough of center to for me to consider leftist; kinda like Uncle Sam but based. See Comrade Jim's New Æther Revolution. The actual songwright was Ron Angel. Mephidross, Quarry Number Nine
Legendary Artifact Land
As Mephidross, Quarry Number Nine enters the battlefield
you may pay 1 life. If you don’t it enters the battlefield tapped.
T: Add a black.
Pay 2 life, T: Add two black.
Pay 4 life, T: Add one mana of any color.
FT: Every day your in this place, your two days nearer death.

Death's shadow decks would probably love this card a bit two much, but whatever. |

bumping this, maybe I'll ping some of the usual suspects if the bump doesn't jump start it.

Up: Really good, it would be great in a lifegain deck or in a death's shadow deck. Maybe I'd raise the life cost of the add two black ability from 2 to 3. Nice flavor.
Creature - Ogre  Terrifying (This creature can’t be blocked by creatures with lesser power.)
Humming Ogre can't block. 4/3
