- Let's run this with "Space Monkey Mafia" rules - no repeat names among entries, first come first serve.
- Planechase is a thing.
Additionally, please try to keep your entry edits all in one post - if you need to change it you can put your old entry in a spoiler marked "Old entry" and leave the newest rendition to be seen.

Before Theros got leaked I was hoping we would see Sagas again whenever we had a 'return to' set. That we could have Sagas depicting events that took place the last time we visited that plane, so I've been brewing up some cards that already fit this challenge. Rise of the Eldrazi   Enchantment - Saga  I & II: Each player sacrifices a creature, a land, and a noncreature nonland permanent. III: Create three 10/10 colorless Eldrazi creature tokens. |

I think the card name and the set name have to match exactly. If not... I like it. Food hate is best hate! |

viriss Your card must share a name with a Magic: the Gathering expansion. We are worse off for it, but there is sadly no expansion yet titled Nice Aged Cheese.

 At first glance, seems like a roundabout until-end-of-turn P/T boost, but has potential with +1/+1 counter shenanigans... |

Worldwake   Instant  Choose one: - Untap up to one target land. - Search your library for a Forest card and put that card onto the battlefield. Then shuffle your library. - Target land becomes a 4/4 creature with trample. It’s still a land.

Ah dang i understood the same as viriss that we can hide the extension name inside the card's name. |

While I doubt someone would snatch it away anyway, calling dibs on Core Set 2020  |

Space Monkey Mafia? Please explain.
Also, are set codenames fair game?
This is what I got until further notice:
Guru    Legendary Creature--Vedalken Shaman Monk Creatures you control have haste, prowess, and “Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, if this creature’s power is 5 or greater, you gain 1 life.” 2/3 |

If you only do a render for your card, please put the expansion name in your post so it can be easily searched.
I'm assuming, hoping, we can use part of a name, so I am claiming Champions of Kamigawa
Yin Shu & Fa Sho, Champions of Kamigawa
Legendary Creature - Human Monk Samurai
If there are exactly two permanents named ~ in play under your control, the "legend rule" doesn't apply to them.
2/2

Yes I know this card has the stars of nyx when it clearly shouldn't, but it just seemed to be visually fitting.  |

First post here. Have been messing around with MTG design lately as a break between my classes. Chose the set Archenemy.  Noticed a few black cards in Eldraine got haste to enable them a bit better. Thought that would be good for this card, so I added haste and Legendary to balance it (and for a bit of flavor). |

I do have a set name in my card name... "ice age"... but it has to be the individual words? Just checking I'll change it.  |

The official wording on the challenge says "your card has to share a name with a set", so I think that it has to be exactly the same. On that note, jarribas309, "The Dragon's Maze" isn't the name of a set - I would name it just "Dragon's Maze." |

So here's my take on the challenge. As I suggested Ladies' Knight just recently fas honorable mention for a Magic Mics Top10 list, there was no chance I'd miss using Core Set 2020 here

{Spoiler}War of the Spark  Instant  Target planeswalker you control fights target planeswalker you don’t control. (Each deals damage equal to its loyalty to the other.)I hope I can still use the action "fight" for things other than creatures?  |

Enchantment At the beginning of each of your combat steps, you may create a 3/3 red Dragon with flying that's tapped and attacking.
I hope to find an art for this but it's really looking like I won't manage and I know if I don't post I'll forget.

I had exactly the same idea as you Evil Coco but i couldn't decide what to do at first. I considered choosing OCM1 but it's probably better that i autocensored myself on this one.  Urza's Saga (I put " Sacrifice at IV." because III will be useful mostly during the untap step just before putting the 4th lore counter on the Saga. Also i know Sagas shouldn't be artifacts but for Urza i wanted to make an exception.) |
