"How utterly dismal." A metal figure strides forth, with an extended torch-limb basking the room in light.Illuminating Torch  Artifact  Spells that target you or a permanent you control cost  less to cast. Opponents play with their hands revealed. If you can see them, they can see you.G'day, and welcome to the boards. Hope you enjoy!

notdaedalus As you roam through the dank corridors, you hear a deeply unsettling noise. Not long after, the passage starts filling with water. You try to escape, but you find yourself trapped between the walls closing in around you.Torrent of Denial  Instant Return target spell or nonland permanent to its owner's hand. There is no edifice so high or a being so mighty that it can't be brought low.Illuminating Torch: Neat and flavorful. The hand reveal effect isn't really good, and the first one is mostly a downside, but it can be fun in some builds. 7.5/10Also I was on Battle Boards before this forum was set up, and this is a null reincarnation. I'll still enjoy though :^)

A bird flies into the cave. It's carrying a scroll of some sort in one talon and a feather - from itself - in another. Slowly, it begins to try to map out the cave. Treasure here... monsters there... corpse (?) there but it looks all too mangled.Cartography Kestrel Creature - Bird Flying Whenever CARDNAME attacks, reveal the top card of your library and put it in your hand, then discard it unless it was a land card. 1/1

Riches? Power? Evil Magic? That was Vikalden's idea of a good time! Of course, anything worth taking was worth protecting, so she needed to be prepared for the worst. Siphoning Skin   Enchantment  Whenever a source you don't control deals damage to you, Siphoning Skin deals 2 damage to that source's controller and you gain 2 life.

"What is this? I hadn't even finished building it! You will pay for this, insolent edifice."Improvisational Engine  Artifact Spells you play cost less to cast for each spell of the same type you've cast before it this turn. "A machine that builds a better version of itself. One of my prouder moments."- Base Zero Torrent of Denial - 9/10. A fun and balanced card, shy of a ten only because it's missing a rarity. Still, definitely a staple.

FleurA fetid creature intercepts the trespasser. It resembes a skeleton with rotting organs wrapped around the bones. Its clawed tongue shoots up to reach the bird.Cartography Kestrel: The syntax is a bit weird to be honest, nevertheless it's valid. Milling lands would be better though in my opinion. Overall a fine uncommon, but could afford to be better imho. 8/10 Loathsome Mohrg Creature - Zombie Horror Menace When Loathsome Mohrg enters the battlefield, destroy target creature with power 1 or less. 2/2 The would-be intruder falls dead to the ground.notdaedalusAll of a sudden, the engine stops working. When you try to examine it, the machine spews out a thick cloud of suffocating smoke.Improvisational Engine: This looks like has a potential to be broken. 7.5/10 Perilous Fumes Enchantment Whenever an opponent casts a spell, that player loses 1 life and you gain 1 life. The most confident fall the hardest.ThatDamnPipsqueak: Wow, battle boards can be exhausting  I'm gonna take a break but I'll return to your entry later.

"Oh, my. That looks exceptionally shiny, don't you agree?"
Awestruck Pirate Creature - Human Pirate  Awestruck Pirate can't attack or block unless you control an artifact or there is an artifact card in your graveyard.  : Draw a card, then discard a card. He eschewed the golden chalice and the silver crown, but clung to the reflective comb as if his life depended on it.
2/1

"A cave? Well, I'm sure I can handle this. Even if it is trapped..." he said, stepping forward. He raised his spear defensively in front of him.Brave Adventurer  Creature - Human Knight First strike, lifelink "Nothing scares me! Not even death!"2/2

CARD: Bala Ged Scorpion makes me think this might deserve to be at ? But also, Bala Ged Scorpion was not a very good card and it was in a target-rich environment with defenders matter as an archetype, so this is getting a soft pass from me (with a few reservations). 7.5/10. The bird falls to the ground dead.

A woman walks to the mouth of the cave, wielding nothing but a machine strapped to her back and a belt full of various trinkets and vials. "There's something magical about this cave. I'm going to have to do some research on this." She walks into the cave and smashes one of the vials at her feet, creating a purple glow that rises up all around her.Light of Protection Sorcery Target creature you control gets +2/+2 and gains indestructible and lifelink until the end of the turn. "There's no point to perfection if we're not around to benefit from it."

One of the members of The Last Horizon, taking an exploratory stroll, notices this and quickly jogs into the lair after the woman. As he draws alongside her, he gives a friendly bump to her arm. "Looks dangerous in here," he smiles, "so I'm volunteering you to watch my back."(attacking alongside gateways) Helpful Tagalong  Creature - Human Scout Rapport -- Whenever Helpful Tagalong and at least one other creature you control become tapped, one of those creatures gains hexproof until end of turn. "What has four eyes that see in every direction? You and me, for starters."2/2

ThatDamnPipsqueakSiphoning Skin is nice, although might be a little too oppressive. 7.5/10You can feel a voice resonating in your mind. "Death walks many paths, ignorant one. Do you believe only steel and magic can hurt you?"Putrid Wall Creature - Zombie Wall Defender At the beginning of each player's upkeep, that player loses 1 life. Dead men tell no tales. Dead men end them.1/4 NeottolemoI like this. I like this very much. Looks like something right out of Ixalan. 10/10Absorbed with the beauty of his findings, the intruder didn't pay attention to an ordinary wire stretched between the walls. Alas, the last glimmer the pirate saw was that of the silver blades in his guts.Disgraceful Demise Sorcery Destroy target creature or planeswalker. Its controller loses 2 life. Everyone else, I'll get back to you tomorrow. Sorry for making you wait so long.

Aaand there goes my promise. Sorry for making you wait. gurfafflekins : Death might not scare you, but it certainly will stop you. And, hopefully, others.Flay Skin Instant Target creature gets -2/-2 until end of turn. You gain 2 life. Nobody has seen the challenger's dead body. Nobody wanted to.Brave Adventurer: Neat little uncommon. I like it. 9/10cajun : The child notices a glimmer in the distance. What is it? Is it one of the perils lurking within it? Karina comes closer nevertheless.Shimmering Apparition Creature - Spirit Flash When Shimmering Apparition enters the battlefield, target creature gets -1/-0 until end of turn. The forewarning of your future fate.1/1 Recon Mission: Not sure how useful this is, but looks fine. 8/10herziquerzi and gateways7 Thick fog started to form around the intruders. "What is this?!" they shouted in unison. They tried to retreat, but some kind of magic barely let them move.Immobilizing Vapors Instant Attacking creatures get -3/-0 until end of turn. Draw a card. Sometimes, panic attains more than a sword.Light of Protection: Nice buff, although sorcery speed hurts it a bit. 7.5/10Helpful Tagliatelle: Neat, but I'm not sure if it should be common. Let's give it a 8/10. |

You were right. Death DID stop him.
Flay Skin: Seems a little good for an instant speed common. However, that flavor is magnifique - 9/10.

Karina comes closer nevertheless.Shimmering Apparition Creature - Spirit Flash When Shimmering Apparition enters the battlefield, target creature gets -1/-0 until end of turn. The forewarning of your future fate.1/1 (This is flashback stuff to Okus cause Karina wouldn't have gone in here alone, but I do want to play out the expedition) The girl in the hat follows after the glimmer, hoping to find treasure. She just finds a spirit floating around. She is worried at all, ignoring the omen and continuing deeper into the lair.Delve Deep Enchantment Whenever a player casts a spell, they put the top two cards of their library into their graveyard. : Exile up to four cards from your graveyard. If there are at least four card types among those exiled cards, draw two cards.
Shimmering Apparition - was this a defense or a gift? this doesn't really defend against the card but it does synergize with Recon through the etb. will split the diff (and round your fraction out) with 7.5/10 |
