Thanks for the win!
The next creature type which I'd like to see more of is Homunculus. Explain (if you want) what you find telling about current Homunculi and show your card!
Doesn't have to be blue, but is totes allowed.

 I couldn't resist doing an FMA inspired card. I hope crediting the animation studio is sufficient for artist credit. I feel bad for not making it legendary, but it didn't fit on the typeline and I imagine it being a Godzilla style promo that just happens to not need an alternate name. {Text Form} Gluttony   Creature - Homunculus Incarnation  Haste Gluttony attacks each turn if able. Whenever Gluttony attacks, each player sacrifices a non-Homunculus creature. Gluttony deals 3 damage to each player who can't. 5/4 |

I actually created a homunculus for another challenge this week and ended up not using it as my submission. I like the little buggers. They're typically cheap, favor toughness, and often carry some really nice effects.  |

Here is my favourite Homunculus design of all time. Just for the name. Nothing else. And I swear, I made this before Humongulus came out. Was meant to be on Esper. Hypermunculus   Artifact Creature - Homunculus  Hypermunculus has hexproof as long as it is untapped. Hypermunculus has double strike as long as you control two or more white permanents. 2/4 |

Judging time!
Looks like a versatile card that still needs some build around. The mana at etb will likely be of no use and the mana from the death trigger will almost always be useless if added during combat. However, a robot ape is a cool idea and this card makes for an interesting common.
Sweet card. A fine blocker early in the game that can be "aggravated" by just one mana. This threat of activation will often be enough to deter attackers. Could see this in a multiplayer focused limited environment. The  activation cost looks a bit strange to me but the more I let it sink in, the more I like it.
Ape merfolk? I've always been sceptical about the human-centric nature of creature types (zombies being just zombies instead of human zombies etc.) so I like the idea. And your flavor text hits the point home, too. Mechanically speaking, the card is fair. The dream here, I suppose, is to drop the ape on turn one and follow with a Hallowed Fountain or something like that. Nothing too impressive, but it's fair.
{And the winner is...}
...viriss!
Simple design that tells a good story.
Thanks everyone for participating!

Okay, up next, since I speculate Strixhaven will be another two-color pairs set like Ravnica. I want a two-color Bird.

ameisenmeister Easy to get out early, big reward if you can pay for it. SilentKobold Bird and zombie are best friends. I like this half-flying combo. gluestick248 Zombie and bird are... the same friend. Here's a bird I'm glad doesn't fly. I'm not sure about the P/T combined with the ability. 6/3 first strike is hard enough to kill, nevermind the fact that it can just keep eating creatures. Maybe only eat one creature per turn? Adding "can't block" is a great choice. Jartis Triggered exploration looks tame, but is crazy powerful, then we get the optional fighting ability. I'm not sure uncommon is enough to hold this beast. melono This is a really strong bird. This ability being is black is a bend for me but it works here. Uncommon seems like the right place for this. thaneofglamis The +2/+0 feels slightly too good for me, but they have been pushing dinosaur to make them on par. Keeping the toughness at 1 is a good choice. I'm going to have nightmares about being overrun by these things. gamma3 I liked the card more when it was mono-black. As a blue/black I feel like it's missing something blue. Maybe I want a smaller doom-clock, but the 2 cards/2 life balance is good. ZephyrPhantom Flying hate in red/green. Yes! lol. I think you could even give it haste. odivesco A flying Erratic Cyclops. Okay. Also at rare. Good.

 I wanted something that could be offensively as well. I thought about giving the enchanted creature flying as well... maybe it should? |

The Soul Wall Legendary Creature - Wall  Defender, indestructible As long as you control no other creatures, The Soul Wall can block any number of creatures. Whenever The Soul Wall is dealt damage, create that many 1/1 white Spirit creature tokens with flying. 0/3 This also works for the current Commander Game challenge. |
