Make cards With the NEW ART.
Art:
http://www.5colorcontrol.com/images/fan ... index.html

The way this will work, is that people can make cards using:
Magic Set Editor and post them here, on this thread. (MAKE SURE YOU FILL IN THE ARTIST'S NAME OR AT LEAST THIER DEVIANTART SN IN THE APPROPRIATE PLACE.)

People will talk about which cards they like, and you can enter the contest with as many entries as you would like. At the end of the month I will pick a card we like and put it in the news. We will also have a 'Hall of Fame.'

(I will not play in this game, to make it fair and all that)

If you have any questions feel free to ask them here.

Also, how I will be judging things:
Spoiler:
Balance: 10/10 - I liked Standard and Draft. If you card is a rare, I will be asking my self, "Self, if I was on my way to a tournament, and I was to build a deck to support this card, would I have a reasonable chance of winning?" If the answer is "no," how much would I not want to? If the answer is "yes" how much do I want to? (since it could unbalance the game).
If the card is a uncommon or common, I will be thinking about what pick I would choose it in draft, and whether or not having lots of it would unbalance the draft. (I will also think about it in constructed, but as a support card.)
I will also ask myself if your card would unbalance any of the older formats, but will care less about that answer.
Finally, if its clear your card is a casual card, I will TRY and be understanding, but I am a terrible casual player, and really have no grasp of the format.
Flavour: 10/10 - I will probably be more lenient in this category. The main questions will be: "Did I like the Flavour or not?," "How much does the art fit?" But I will try not to be too harsh. Bad art>no art. Think Goblin Offensive flavor.
Creativity: 5/5 - "Has this been done before?" "How 'new' is it?" Think Doran, the Siege Tower's ability.
Quality: 5/5 - "Does this card (need/should not have) flavour text?" Also, I will be taking off -.25 for every 'small' error I find, and -.5 for every 'large' error. If your card does not work in the current comp rules, expect a -1 here. Make sure you have a text card, and your text card lines up with the render.

First Three entries. Starring Gideon, and Eldrazi and what seems to me to be a half-assed Eldrazi removal spell. XD

I have to say, they look quite sweet :D

The art images they gave me are eating up all of my Bandwidth. I might have to take them down soon, so if you want em, get em!

My Version of the Vol, Slave of Bolas, the Balancing Angel and the weird fuchsia Eldrazi.

Fuchsia Eldrazi:
Viiloshiik, Corrupter of Faith 10
Legendary Creature - Eldrazi - 11/11
When you cast Viiloshiik, Corrupter of Faith, each of your opponents reveals their hand and discards all non-land cards in it.
Annihilator 3 (When this creature attacks, the defending player sacrifices three permanents)
When Vhiloeshik would be put into a graveyard from anywhere, put it into its owner’s library fifth from the top.

Balancing Angel:
Virtues' Beacon 2WW -3/4
Creature - Angel
Flying, Vigilance
At the beginning of each player’s upkeep, that player may choose creature, land, artifact or enchantment. If any player controls more of the chosen type of permanent than any other player, that player sacrifices a permanent of that type.

Vol:
Vol, Slave of Bolas 2RB
Planeswalker - Sarkan 4
+2 Vol, Slave of Bolas deals 2 damage to target creature. If a creature would be destroyed this way, exile it instead.
-3 Vol, Slave of Bolas deals 2 damage to target player. That player exiles a card from their hand at random.
-5 Destroy target permanent. That permanent’s controller loses life equal to its converted mana cost.

Here are my entries...yeah I have a lot. :D And sorry for the slightly weird frames for the Eldrazi, I couldn't find a new MSE Eldrazi frame, so I made do with another custom full-art frame. There are cards that were slightly spoiled (the Eldrazi Broodmaster and Drana) so I stuck to those names, casting costs, etc. Enjoy!

LOL...... I'm not sure I'll be able to judge all of these......

However, how about in a week I just put them all up in the news section of the comic? Or, maybe I will put then below the spoiler cards on Sunday. Yeah, I like that idea. Then the following week I will select 1-2 cards from each person I like the best for that person, and judge just those cards.

I also encouraged people to judge other peoples entries if they see one they really like ;)

Come on, do I need to explain it ;).

[spoiler]Image


my take on the new planeswalker.

The closest most of us will ever get too owning a lotus.

A more balanced version of Sol Ring, or a more powerful Worn Powerstone, you decide.
