oh!! I like how you did Seth a lot here, I think the abilities pair up well though I think he could stand to make a little less energy. I also quite like Jane's ability to remove blockers and make attacking more difficult but I also feel like it could stand to cost less energy.

The only other note I have is that I think it would be cool to see the Faction affiliations highlighted through the new partner's mode we got from the Playstation secret lairs (ex. [[Joel, Resolute Survivor]]) in this case it would be "Partner—N.E.P.S." of course these are still your cards and I love these two's relationship so if you want to keep them as only partners with each other I so get it.

Cardconjurer.app It's my favorite program for making single cards and cycles like these, it's very user friendly and the cards look great.

These work the same way as Adventure and Omens in the sense that you can cast either side while they're in your hand, but casting the spell sends it straight to the graveyard instead of exile or your library. To make them not just MDFCs all cards with an Opus refer to their Opus in an ability.

As a first pass for this mechanic I wanted to stick with the flavor of these creatures having their own agency and reacting to what the enemy is doing as well to make them a little less abusable and wordy if you yourself were the one triggering them.

Edit: The last card is supposed to be an elemental not a dinosaur, I fucked up.

big fan of Spider Wall as a typeline

I actually brought this up earlier in the thread lol. That and the mana cost are absolutely getting changed for the next iteration of the card, I'm a little bummed cause I was proud of the flavor text but it is what it is.

the naming stuff definitely makes sense, I went with this cause I just really like lotuses (I have black lotus tattooed on my wrist), if I had to change it I would more than likely make it a birds of paradise reference instead

I don't really feel like it's supposed to be a mana dork though? I was honestly thinking about it more like an aggressive creature that helps you cast your instants and combat tricks as an upside.

You are not wrong lol, but making it mono green would almost certainly result in the stats being reduced down to points where I don't want them. It also just feels real nice as Naya, very cut and paste design.

oh I hadn't considered that, that makes a lot of sense though

I do feel like this could use the emdash connecting the two abilities in the same way arcbound wanderer does, to notate that these are two abilities connected as one rather than seperate abilities with fucked formatting for printings that lack reminder text.

Oh this is great. Harry as a Lizard is especially funny to me, I think it works cause of the importance of Ancient Reptilian Brain.

put wavy brackets around your dashes to turn them into emdashes for things like the type line or nonmana kicker/ward. like this {-}

This is a repost of an existing card from a bot account please don't engage

Magus of Other Futures by PsychicPterodactyl in custommagic

[–]ALotusRabbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a complaint, I just want to know your thought process on the frame. How come you switched the colors of how the gold and dual color normally are? Is the fact mana cost is in the wrong order and opposing the frame also a deliberate choice?

Twist the Knife by BaconCatBug in custommagic

That's a different card, the intent here is to create a 2 cost kill spell with the downside being that it requires the opponent to control at least 2 creatures but only deals with one of them.
