 I didn't like my original entry so I changed it. The guy is a League of Legends character that makes magic with cards. He has an ability wich allows himtopick one of three card. One stuns an opponent, another recovers mana and the last deals damage to all enemies in an area, therefore the three modes. Edit: By the way the second ability adds  to avoid generating infinite mana just by replaying the card in some weird combo. {Old Entry}  I might have just made the strongest tutor ever. Not sure on how I feel about it. |

I hope this wins "Most Jewish Submission":

Rabbi's Gambling Top  Artifact Whenever a single source you control deals 4 or more damage to a permanent or player, put a luck counter on Rabbi’s Gambling Top.
 ,  , Spin a dreidel:
• On נ, nothing happens.
• On ג, remove all luck counters from Rabbi’s Gambling Top. The next time a source you control would deal damage this turn, it deals that much damage plus X instead, where X is the number of luck counters removed this way.
• On ה, the next time a source you control would deal damage this turn, it deals half that damage, rounded up instead.
• On ש, Rabbi’s Gambling Top deals 4 damage to you. Put an additional luck counter on Rabbi’s Gambling Top. |

sade612: should also be nonland, since you can play this with three basic land cards of one type and two of another and win that very turn.

 It's a way stronger Skullclamp. Hopefully the higher costs, both to cast and equip, as well as the combat restriction and rarity serve to balance it a bit. Plus it's thematic. |

 (I know the odds can be stacked with players finding other ways to exile cards they own face down, but that's too flavorful for me to safeguard against. Also didn't go for the caster revealing what they set down until after the game so they could put lands if they want to. Gives a new take to "find the 'Pretty Lady.'") |

 More of a Kind   Instant  As an additional cost to cast this spell, reveal X nonland cards with the same converted mana cost from your hand. Draw X cards. Even with the best hand in the world, what truly matters is how it’s used. |

Hip hip hip! Here's my entry! I would love playing a card like this. Not to OP but could be really insane with +1/+1 counters or indestructible.

mrlozano : I really like the idea, but the colorless casting cost seems wrong... Why don't you use the hybrid mana (three colors) in MSE ? Or an alternate 2/R, 2/B, 2/U as Reaper King ? You can also mix synergic effects : it would nerf the card and turning it OP only while playing Grixis colors. For example: if B search an instant, put it on top of your library, then if R, search a card among top 7 cards, discard at random and finally if B, return a card from your graveyard to your hand. Just an idea, but again : I really like yours.
Jartis : Searching for 2 cards seems too OP... Why not just one ? Since it's a colorless card, it makes more sense. Maybe with a smaller CMC if you want to keep a powerful card.
kinotherapy : just passing through, I saw your avatar and I really like it. Hoseki No Kuni has a really good art and it makes this thread shining a little more! (your card seems balanced too, and fun to play!) |

Call Cube Artifact : Until your next turn, spells that would cost less than X mana to cast costs X mana to cast, where X is the highest converted mana cost among spells you cast this turn. (Additional mana in the cost may be paid with any color of mana or colorless mana.)
