Up: This would make more sense if it was   :. as fight is a RG ability. Otherwise pretty good. 7/10 Special Delivery Enchantment- Aura  Enchant creature When ~ enters the battlefield, exile a card from your hand face down underneath ~. Whenever enchanted creature deals combat damage, you may reveal the exiled card.

Up: This is a really neat and balanced way to play stuff for free. I’m not sure why you need to reveal the card first. Maybe only trigger on damage to a player?

Up: Pretty solid, unassuming two-drop. I can respect that. Would probably see play in both Constructed and Limited formats. I also think your choice of splitting the white and black mana up is appropriate to the color pie, since they can both reasonably provide lifelink while, of the three Mardu colors, only red can reasonably provide haste. Even though it's simple, it's quite powerful. Legendary Creature -- Dwarf Monk
Double strike If a creature you control attacking causes a triggered ability of a permanent you control to trigger, that ability triggers an additional time. The finest monk the Order has ever seen, Fairesa Khadol has dedicated their life to defending the market-town of Oasis. 2/1
Old: Mythic rare New: Flavor from a lesser-known plane, such as Gobakhan, Muraganda, or Kaldheim

up: A worthy 1-thoughness mythic. I like it and I guess it's only a matter of when and not if WotC is going to print this effect. I allways like to speculate about the Fomori from Ir. Fomori Runekeeper  Creature - Giant Wizard  Whenever Fomori Runekeeper attacks, discard you hand, then draw card equal to the greatest power among creatures you control. 4/4 Old: Flavor from a lesser-known plane, such as Gobakhan, Muraganda, or Kaldheim New: Has at least 3 keywords |

Up: Cool card - fits well into the theme of Ir because of, well, Giants. Could use a little more umph to really make it feel mythic, like trample perhaps.
Segovian Dragon  Creature - Dragon Flying, trample, haste : Segovian Dragon gets +1/+0 until end of turn. 0/1 Old: Has at least three keywords New: Has two rhyming words in its name |

Up: While I appreciate the awesome flavor in your card, the three keywords it comes with don't all feel like they fit. You wouldn't want this to haste in, and trample also seems off when usually this is attacking as a 2-3 power creature, maybe 4 if the game goes that late. Regardless, 7/10 for the balancing which fits the Segovia theme! Attachment DeletedOld: Has two rhyming words in its name. New: Cares about or interacts with a hidden zone (library/hand). |

Up: Reminds me of Butcher of Malakir, but takes more dedication to make use of. Makes up for it with the haste. The small problem is that I think it has an unintuitive non-synergy with itself: Rahon doesn't trigger off itself devouring since the sacrifice takes place as Rahon is entering and not afterwards. Look for a Book  Enchantment As Look for a Book enters the battlefield, choose a card name. At the beginning of your upkeep, look at the top five cards fo your library. You may reveal a card with the chosen name from among them, put it into your hand and sacrifice Look for a Book. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order. A very bad (and slow) tutor, thus only one mana and uncommon. Old: Cares about or interacts with a hidden zone (library/hand). New: Has the word "face" somewhere on the card. |

Up: Wait... You put a card onto the battlefield face down, and then can't turn it face up or anything? It's not even face down as a creature, or anything? That seems kinda useless... Could be a drawback to make up for the mono-white card draw, but it's certainly a strange one. Transparency Enchantment Play with the top card of your library revealed.

Could be a drawback to make up for the mono-white card draw, but it's certainly a strange one. 707.2a If a face-up permanent is turned face down by a spell or ability [...], it becomes a 2/2 face-down creature with no text, no name, no subtypes, and no mana cost. A permanent that enters the battlefield face down also has these characteristics unless otherwise specified by the effect that put it onto the battlefield face down or allowed it to be cast face down[...] In other words, it's a 2/2 for 2 with some bonus weirdness with morph, and maybe some other things also |

I really enjoyed this game on the old forum so it would appear I am about to bring this one back from the dead. Up: a very interesting artifact creature that can block and is chock full of effects. This card is definitely a big advantage for your opponent, but it makes up for the deficit. All in all, a cool card that fits the challenges. The Heart of the Forest Legendary Creature - Treefolk Defender Cumulative Upkeep Whenever you tap a source for mana, you may add two mana to your mana pool of any type that source produced and put an Age Counter on The Heart of the Forest.

Heart of the Forest: This looked a bit unassuming at first glance and I liked it, but this becomes "double your mana" late game for G for one turn with no drawbacks which can be a little too explosive. Like where it's headed though. Theosa the Wavewaker Legendary Creature - Merfolk Shaman Whenever Theosa the Wavewaker attacks, you may look at the top card of your library. If that card is a Kraken, Leviathan, Octopus, or Serpent creature card, you may reveal it and put it into your hand. Otherwise, you may put it on the bottom of your library. 1/1 Old challenge: Your card has no mana symbols in its text box. New challenge: Your card has at least one activated ability. |

Up: At first glance, this looks like solid sea-creature tribal support. Then I realized that you're discouraged from attacking with it due to being a 1/1 with no evasion. I think there's a solid card there, I just wish there was some way to protect it in combat. 6.5/10 Memory Siphoner Creature - Aetherborn Vampire Rogue Whenever a creature you control dies, you get  (an energy counter). , pay 2 life: Draw a card.

The first ability is comparable to Aetherworks Marvel, but since its payoff is much smaller I think it's fine. Muscular Overcharge Sorcery Multikicker Put two +1/+1 counters on target creature.

Nonagon Infinity there is not much to know about judging. Just write what you think about the card. Imagine you play it in a normal game of Magic or someone plays it against you. Is it too strong? Too weak? Or just right? Maybe it's confusing in some way? Maybe you really like the flavor of the card? Maybe this has the feeling like it comes right out of Return to Ravnica. Things like that. I think you get the idea  As for your card, I really like it! The first two modes are somehow situational which makes the card an interesting addition to the right deck. It's a bit strange for a multicolor card to use a counter as the white part, yet that also makes it interesting. By the way, you can make bullets • with Alt + 7 (numpad). Also welcome to the forums!  For this one, I cleaned up one of my older designs:  Oodoth, the Dissolver  Legendary Creature - Wurm : At the beginning of your next upkeep, you lose the game. Choose one: • Draw a card. • Oodoth, the Dissolver deals 1 damage to any target. • Create a red 1/1 Elemental creature token with haste. 6/6 Old: Is legendary New: Has something to do with Gods.

Up: This is a very, very bizarre card, but I'm honestly a fan. Definitely a Johnny card. Pumping mana into this thing's ability to just ping your opponent to death would be incredibly satisfying, especially if you have damage doublers to make it less expensive - unless they remove Oodoth in response, which means you're screwed. I love how it really makes you think! Planar Recreation Legendary Sorcery Destroy all non-God permanents. Each player searches their library for up to six land cards, two creature cards, and one artifact or enchantment card and puts them onto the battlefield.

Up: The God clause seems a little forced to fit the challenge; most Gods already have some form of indestructibility even if not directly. This could perhaps be fixed by exiling the permanents, and perhaps graveyards, instead so they couldn't be accessed in the recreated world. Otherwise, seems like a fun power-play particularly for more greedy commander decks. Pharika, Virulent Queen Legendary Enchantment Creature - God Indestructible As long as your devotion to black and green is less than seven, Pharika isn't a creature.

Up: Nice card. I don't think it's a good idea to mix +1/+1 counters and ability cunters on the same card. Sounds a bit messy to me. Stiched and Sewed Sorcery As an additional cost to cast Stiched and Sewed, exile X cards from your graveyard. Return target creature card with converted mana cost X from your graveyard to the battlefield. Fun fact (if I'm right): You can exile the card you target to pay for this spell. Then it fizzles.
