Welcome to the Card of the Week Contest! To participate in this Contest you'll have to design a card along the contest guidelines and throw it into the arena with other competitors' entries! At the end of each week, a winner will be determined by forum poll. The winner's card will be rendered and featured on the Welcome page, and the winner decides the challenge for the next week's Contest! Here we go, competitors: our two-hundred and twenty-sixth challenge!
The winner of the "Slippery Bastards" poll were Daij_Djan (top left), kazerima (top right), Mahx Michael (bottom left) & Fleur (bottom right) with... And the challenge issued by one of our winners was... It's more likely than you think. This week, design a card using any mechanic from either Ravnica block. The catch? That mechanic can't share a color with any other canon card that has the same mechanic. (for instance,   ,  and evolve cards are all invalid). Good Luck!
Additionally, please try to keep your entry edits all in one post - if you need to change it you can put your old entry in a spoiler marked "Old entry" and leave the newest rendition to be seen. Just use the edit button in the top/right of your original post.And now, time to begin the challenge! Best of luck, competitors!

This is basically a color-shift contest? With the caveat that the mechanic should still fit the color?

This is basically a color-shift contest? With the caveat that the mechanic should still fit the color? That is correct. It's about shifting one of the ten mechanics into a new color - and justifying the shift somehow, obviously 
Concerning my own entry: I've reused Haunt multiple times in the past already including shifting it into new colors - which is exactly why I'm not doing it again this time  Enjoy:

  Damnate :2B: Sorcery Destroy target creature. Overload :1BBB: (You may cast this spell for its overload cost. If you do, change its text by replacing all instances of “target” with “each”.) Everybody likes creature destruction and everybody likes wraths. Also, Wizards don't reprint Damnation. So, let's put all together! |

Attachment DeletedColor Spray Sorcery Radiance— Tap target creature and each other creature that shares a color with it. Creatures tapped this way don’t untap during their controller’s next untap step. In the hands of an Archmage, even a lowly cantrip can bring an army to its knees.

ZephyrPhantom: And just when I thought that Zuty would be an easy winner. Very nicely done, stepping up your cookie so well.
Icarael: You might wanna clarify who's being damaged by the 2nd ability. As you have it now, the player who controls your card gets damaged. If you want the controller of the detained creature to get damaged, you should word it thusly: Whenever you detain a creature, Minister of Oubliettes deals 2 damage to that creature's controller. |

Arix As an Legendary I feel its a bit lackluster in terms of its power level, as it its now. With that ability it should be a Legendary, because 2 of these at the same time on the battlefield, dont do any thing. 1. I could see its mana cost just be . or 2. It could be a (1/2 or 1/3) and make 2 tokes instead. or 3. Maybe give it haste Chief Engineer did not break any thing. So i can't se this design should too, with one of these upgrades, as I think it needs some power.
