Sorry I took so long, here we go: {Flo00}I like this. It's relatively simple, and does a pretty good job representing the art flavor wise. I agree that the rarity could go either direction on this. Overall, the design is a very nice package. {Fermat}It's a nice design. Doesn't really feel rare to me though, probably more of an uncommon card. I almost want to take points off for being strictly better than Seaside Citadel. Almost. But that's a very easy thing to do with lands, especially with plain old taplands with no upside, so I don't think that's too egregious. {kinotherapy}I really like this. Except for the part where it does nothing on its own, like the og filters. At the same time though, making mana on its own would make it strictly better than the filters, so I think you made a good choice. {monger}Wizards has been moving away from plural card names, but that's an insignificant thing that's easy to ignore. It's a nice, simple common for a decent rate, which is really nice to see in these contests. {viriss}I like the comedy. I feel like it could maybe be an uncommon. Certainly not an exciting rare, but I appreciate playing it safe with the rarities. The landfall effect nicely works in both colors. {Tesagk}I'm not sure how I feel about this one. It seems balanced, though probably very difficult to play effectively. It combos well with cards that allow you to play extra lands, perhaps more so than normal landfall cards. This looks like a very nice Spike card. {jynx316}I...uh....your wording needs a lot of work. As you have it, it's an enchantment with sorcery text that would try to put actual cards that fit the criteria of being 1/1 white Knights with Horsemanship onto the battlefield from.....somewhere? Oh, but only if you control no creatures. And technically, the knights could be tribal enchantment or something, since you don't specify creatures. I'm assuming you meant for it to be an enchantment that makes tokens on your upkeep, in which case it needs a total rewording. You need to define when it triggers, that it's making tokens, and that those tokens are creatures in addition to the other characteristics you have listed, giving you the text: "At the beginning of your upkeep, if you control no creatures, create two 1/1 Knight creature tokens with horsemanship." With that all done, I think it could probably cost and drop in rarity to uncommon. {Neottolemo}Seems solid. The first ability doesn't really feel connected to the other two, but that's not a big issue. I don't really have anything else to say about this card. {Winner} Flo00 takes first place with a solid design package, kinotherapy takes a close second with a new take on a couple old land cycles, and augur takes a solid third with a clean, simple common

2 entries in and I'm already feeling like my originally "cool idea" isn't quite so cool or unique. May end up back on the drawing board with this one.

Fine. I can't think of a better name. Selkie Wicker-Witch Creature - Merfolk Wizard When Selkie Wicker-Witch deals combat damage to a player, create three 1/1 colorless Scarecrow artifact creature tokens. Sacrifice a Scarecrow: Return target tapped creature to its owner's hand. Her puppets bring curiosities for her watery lair.1/1 I give up trying to get the flavor text right. Fun fact: there are three selkies - one with , one with , and one with . I thought I'd continue the cycle.

Familiar Visions Sorcery Scry 3, then reveal the top card of your library. Draw cards equal to that card's converted mana cost. You lose that much life. The images she had seen before, but that didn't make them any more pleasant.
