shiftyhomunculus Is the number we choose forbidden from reminder text as well? For example, Void Winnower clarifies that zero is even in its reminder text, or cards with Extort drain specifically for 1 life in their reminder text. Edit: My entry turned out to be too wordy when phrased the way that mattered for my question. Question still stands for the benefit of others, though.

You know what? Go big or go home! I choose  . Abolethem, Scion of Flames -   Legendary Creature - Devil Shaman  Abolethem, Scion of Flames has -X/-X, where X is your life total. Whenever you cast a spell with converted mana cost 13, Abolethem deals 13 damage to each player and each other creature. 13/13 |

Ighbliani Sharmi, Generosity's Bane Legendary Artifact Creature--Golem Improvise
Trample
When Ighbliani Sharmi, Generosity’s Bane enters the battlefield, if you control no tapped lands, each player creates thirteen tapped Treasure tokens.
When Ighbliani Sharmi, Generosity’s Bane enters the battlefield, if you control no other untapped artifacts, each opponent loses life equal to the number of artifacts they control.
Ighbliani Sharmi, Generosity’s Bane has hexproof as long as you control thirteen or more artifacts. 13/13 |

 * Being reworkedQuartet of Synog  Creature - Human Bard Warrior When Quartet of Synog enters the battlefield, choose up to four: • You gain 4 life. • Target creature with power greater than four gets +4/+4 until end of turn. • Target creature with toughness less than four gets +4/+4 until end of turn. • If you control 4 or more creatures, you may draw a card for each creature you control. "Their tales of battle were an inspiration enough to rouse an army." - Seklig the Bard4/4 I'd prefer them to be 2/4, but I think that would violate the rule. |

Tesagk there's a typo in your card "up to to four"

Quartet of Synog Creature - Human Bard Warrior  When Quartet of Synog enters the battlefield, choose up to to four: • You gain 4 life. • Put a + 1/+ 1 counter on target creature with power 4 or less. • Put two + 1/+ 1 counters on target creature with power 4 or more. • Up to four target creatures get + 1/+ 1 until end of turn. "Their tales of battle were an inspiration enough to rouse an army." - Seklig the Bard4/4 There are a handful of numbers here that’d need to be changed. I highlighted them in the quote. |

 Probably all League player know what is Jhin's favourite number. To everyone who doesn't play League, this guy has an unhealthy obsesion with the number four... |

Ugh, completely missed those. There's no such thing as a +4/+4 counter, so I need to rework. |

Lucky Number Seven 7

At the beginning of your upkeep if you have seven cards in your hand, control seven permanents, and have seven life, you win the game.

Took me a bit. I wanted to do something with tokens, but even three 3/3s can get out of hand. Then I remembered I had this art already planned out--initially it was a 2/3 for 2BR--so I figured I'd give it a proper Rakdos effect and call it there. It might not be a great card, but there aren't a lot of black-red cards that help you discard more than one card at a time, so I think it still has its uses.

mrlozano Hot damn that's clever. I really like this. You've probably got my vote. Just a quick syntax thing--shouldn't his spectacle ability be phrased as "deals 4 damage to each of up to four targets"?

I was late to the party and the 6-devilthing had already been made. As such, I chose 8 and made my own hedron alignment. Attachment Deleted |

Quartet of Synog ::GW: Creature - Human Bard Warrior When Quartet of Synog enters the battlefield, choose up to four: • You gain 4 life. • Target creature with power greater than four gets +4/+4 until end of turn. • Target creature with toughness less than four gets +4/+4 until end of turn. • If you control 4 or more creatures, you may draw a card for each creature you control. "Their tales of battle were an inspiration enough to rouse an army." - Seklig the Bard4/4 Why is this a modal ability if you can just choose everything? You could probably put each part of that text as a part of the ETB. For instance "When this creature ETB's, you gain 4 life, up to one target creature with power four..., up to one target creature with toughness four..., if you control four or more....", like that. I do think the idea is really cool, though. |

Had a dumb idea for using the number 0. I feel like it's broken with something but I can't find the combo.
Also, I really liked Planetary Observatory. Very flavorful and fun to try and brew with!
