Research Plans   Sorcery  Scry 2, then reveal the top card of your library and put it in your hand. If that card's converted mana cost was even, you may play an additional land this turn. If that card's converted mana cost was odd, add  . (Zero is even.)Compare: Explore.

{oddnanref - Hidden Treasure Hunt} Whether or not this actually fits limit 85 is debatable, since it obviously puts you up a card, but all the enchantment does is swap cards in your hand so it's not really worth a card itself. Mana fixing is usually the job of limited artifacts, like Prophetic Prism and while Hidden Treasure Hunt requires more of an investment the power here is the ability to get any land repeatedly, which could be desirable in decks like tron or depths. It's a good fit at uncommon but outside of its combo enabling it's probably too weak - I don't see what's about this other than the also questionable name so it could just be  . {Casstastrophe - Spirestrike} Nice flavour on this one, I like how both halves of the effect are represented in the flavour text. I don't agree with the card being  when it could so easily be mono- , though. Not sure how you could make it whiter, perhaps changing from looting to scrying? Though that's a lot weaker so idk {Flo00 - Maddenung(sic) Fumes} Simple, but the color density forcing this into a double costed 2 mana card makes it quite overpriced. It also seems a little odd not having but I guess it's a discard + rummage so whatever. I feel like this is the kind of card I'd like more with a nice render and/or flavour text to support it. {notfoxwolf - Sphinx's Inspiration} This straight up puts you down a card, so it breaks limit 85 and is also very weak. I could possibly see it working in something like EDH, as it's similar to Ancient Excavation, but it takes a lot of work that a do-nothing-lose-a-card does not play in to.If I were to redesign this I might try like "Scry X where X is the number of creatures with flying you control, draw a card" and drop the cost to 2, or maybe 1 + sorcery speed. {Akai Ryu - Flesh Madness} That's a lot of mana for an effect that I'm not even sure I'd want to have in play. "Discard at random then draw" is prettty undesirable unless A) you don't care what you're discarding ( Goblin Lore, Hollow One) or you have no cards in hand. Just removing the "at random" and adding a "you may" to this adds a huge amount of power, though if you wanted to preserve the flavour, you could make it cheaper and make it into a curse (removing the card draw). Oh also it should be "Whenever a creature you control dies." {nhoj2307 - Hollow Vein} Alhammarret's Archive suggests "If you would draw a card except the first one you draw in each of your draw steps," and also begins to suggest how bad this particular ability is. Every single other card draw effect in your deck becomes much worse with this in play, and god forbid you draw multiples. I guess this designed for the Ebony Owl Netsuke kind of deck, but I would much rather just have a Howling Mine. The best use for this I can think of is donating it to another blue player with Zedruu the Greathearted. (Incidentally it causes an infinite loop when two different players each have one, ending only when one player decks and also shredding the library of anyone else at the table, so it should probably be "each other player may draw a card.") {BurningCreator - Terienne's Gift} Puts you down a card, so it breaks limit 85. Flux suggests this is pretty bad and I'm not really sure how you could fix it, maybe if you chose the number of cards each player discards? Or made them discard at random? Or maybe if it just didn't affect opponents at all. {Yoshi - Research Plans} Technically doesn't draw the card, but that's hardly the worst mistake of the thread. I like this design a lot, the sort of Simic semirandomness does remind me of explore, being either a sort of balanced Manamorphose or an Explore (both with card selection), with the downside being you can't guarantee what you'll get and forcing it will often compromise the quality of what you draw. I particularly like that drawing a land gives the Explore mode, making it a sort of side-grade to a tutor like Rampant Growth. (I'm also now very unsure whether you meant explore the mechanic or Explore the card, but it does remind me of both.) (Also I love that we still have to say Zero is, in fact, even)
{I think the winner of Britain's Got Talent 2018 is announced tomorrow night, actually. Maybe Saturday Night} Yoshi - Research Plans wins. |

LIMIT #73: Don't be so negative: Your card features a minus! (Thanks, Daij_Djan!)
LIMIT #85: Pay it how you like it! Your card features a mana symbol never before seen in Magic! (Thanks, Yoshi!)

Tokinomancy {UT} Instant  ({UT} can be paid with either or exiling a token creature you control.)
Split second (As long as this spell is on the stack, players can't cast spells or activate abilities that aren't mana abilities.)
Target nontoken creature becomes a token creature (Exile the card and replace it with a token indicator). Then put a -1/-1 counter on that creature. Sometimes the copy isn't as sharp.

Phyrexian Sojourners   Artifact Creature - Horror  When you cycle Phyrexian Sojourners or it dies, you may put a -1/-1 counter on target creature. Cycling 2/2 why not (There has never been a card with colorless Phyexian mana. I'm aware this is a cheat kinda.)

Desertification {BB}{BB} Sorcery ({BB} can only be paid with  produced by basic lands.) Put X -1/-1 counters on each creature, where X is the number of basic land cards on the battlefield and in all graveyards. {NOTES}This started off as [BD] which was mana, but if it was produced by a Desert source you got a bonus. Just seemed a bit confusing, so I went with Imperiosaur mana instead. The original card also cared about Deserts on the field and in all graveyards and if you spent mana from a Desert source made it only hurt your opponents field. That just ended up being a one sided Damnation with heavy Desert themes. ~Zuty |

This has been tricky. Because the challenge stated mana symbol which involves mana. Out of which we only have five colors, one generic and one colorless. Then you can argue that the hybrid symbols are a different type of mana symbol. So, I'll go with something not so out there. I am used to having my additional and alternative costs spelled on the card text. {Test} Trained Raider 
Creature - Soldier
2/1
Mardu colors, the only colors with almost exclusive rights to one mana 2/1's.
Building from this: Rotter Knotter  Creature - Goblin Wither Morph  When ~ is turned face up, it deals damage equal to its power to up to one target creature. 2/2 Thanks Daij_Djan I can now post them the size I wanted.[/span] |

oddnanref: Yeah, the forum codes currently don't support tricolored hybrid mana. The old forum didn't have the symbols either so there was nothing to port over - but I'll look into getting it in soon TM. RL things seem to finally settle down after two really busy weeks, so I'll have to catch up to some other stuff I've missed first though 
For now, using the image you provided, [img width="15" src="https://i.imgur.com/Mnr9hW6.png" height="15"] gives you . |

Impending Doom [BT][BT][BT] Instant ([BT] can be paid with or by exiling ~ with 1 time counter on it. If you exile this card this way, it gains suspend.)
Split second Choose a creature you control, then put any number less than or equal to that creature's toughness of -1/-1 counters on it. For each counter placed this way, each opponent puts a -1/-1 counter on a creature they control.

It is a little confusing, but basically this can be a CCM2 removal on any color? if you are playing with Hapatra goes infinite? Am I getting this right? It is either suspend 3 or , and anything in between, right? |

Wasn't even thinking about Hapatra, yeah this totally goes infinite with her. Let me just fix that real quick! And yeah, you've got the gist - it's either 2 mana suspend 3, 3 mana suspend 2, 4 mana suspend 1, or 5 mana to just cast it normally.

Judging on request here -- if you want feedback, DM me for details. Casstastrophe wins for having a pretty innovative mana concept that has a tangible cost (unlike say, phy mana) with Fermat as runner-up for an interesting but somewhat text-heavy entry. Thanks for playing, y'all! |

LIMIT #27: Your card is multicolored.
LIMIT #86: Go out in style! Your card contains the text "You win the game." (Thanks, Casstastrophe!)

Legendary Planeswalker -Vraska  : Create a 1/1 black Rogue creature token with skulk (It can't be blocked by creatures of greater power).  : Destroy target artifact, creature or enchantment.  : Choose a creature. That creature gains deathtouch and "When this creature deals combat damage to a player, you win the game" (This effect lasts indefinitely)
While "That player loses the game" would be better, it needed the exact wording.

Cruel Extortionist  Creature-Vampire Extort Whenever you pay for Cruel Extortionist’s extort ability, put a -1/-1 counter on it. At the beginning of your upkeep, remove a -1/-1 counter from Cruel Extortionist. When Cruel Extortionist dies, if it had at least four -1/-1 counters on it, you win the game. 4/4 Render: {Spoiler}*Snip* All renders require proper artist credit in the appropriate space. ~Daij_Djan

oddnanref: The Pointiff should also prevent you from losing due to the poison, else you lose before it's ability has a chance of resolving. Zuty: Since it's an instant, maybe also give the effect a duration. "If ... win the game this turn, ..." And here is my entry: One With the Void Enchantment Devoid At the beginning of your upkeep, exile the top card of your library. Then, if you own twenty or more cards in exile, you win the game. Yea, I know, it combos super-easy with Arc-Slogger, Mirror of Fate and Leveler.
