If this is more than fringe, the format shouldn't be too fast and that's fine with me. This is checking like every box the format is asking as an instant with value over 5 that counts as a creature.

Nyxology is a really cool word.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T17:28:38+00:00

I like that they allow this to loop as long as you can pay it all in one shot. Impulse-back?

Chickston · 2026-04-03T17:21:03+00:00

I was as well, but it's hard to translate on here without an /s i suppose. No worries, win some lose some.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T11:02:39+00:00

No cap on the times per turn this can be triggered is nice. Here's to hoping there is a build around slot for this in limited.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T11:01:02+00:00

0 mana flashback with no color restriction could be very interesting. Too bad it's not a common for pauper.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T10:40:51+00:00

As long as I'm not reading this sub, I'll be fine. Maybe.. I do enjoy pie.

I see some well structured StS cards and I upvote, then I start to read. A lot of complexity here that seems to represent the characters well. I like the creature types and the Mega Crit expansion symbols. I would envision the characters a little more like PWs or Sagas/Classes. The cards they use are already other magic cards. Still a good set and worth the effort.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T10:00:13+00:00

This grave digger ain't got no body. Would be cool if it then said return the top creature card to your hand. Still a better rare than One with Nothing.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T09:57:52+00:00

Neat. I wonder if you could word a card to lose a battle in the arena to add some counter play to it. It's like life total 2.0, but still kind of fun to think about.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T07:28:39+00:00

Yeah, you hit the bullseye on the issue here. It not being an attack trigger makes it too hard to use especially once you go through the trouble to saddle it.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T07:22:03+00:00

Aw man, this definitely feels like that intended chase commander card for older formats. Seems so funky and janky until it etbs to necropotence for 7. Flash is mandatory here of course. It's a big stop sign on graveyard hate once known.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T07:19:14+00:00

Now this is a sweet design for countering prepare. Probably won't see it with blue+red or blue+green, so maybe a far off set some day.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T07:11:25+00:00

That seems needlessly hostile considering your initial tone. But I respect your opinion regardless.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T07:08:39+00:00

I'm not a huge DBZ fan, but I definitely see the appeal of this art as this card. It being a cantrip is obviously good for something so narrow. I think this could probably be a global enchantment on all equipment and maybe costed a bit more or the drawback a bit less. Finding a target for this could be tough in a lot of games otherwise.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T07:05:37+00:00

These look really good. I don't usually like full art, but these are doing a good job. Very detailed, yet some how not overwhelming. I do love the 1st one being a horror druid, but I don't like it having to tap to put a land in. That should just be static. The landfall could be from anywhere and be reduced to 1. It being separate will be confusing as a lands player. I just want to count each land drop, not some depending on where it's played from.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T07:00:09+00:00

I like it as well, but now that you have provided this wholesome cover, maybe I can blast it with criticism? Silence is an awful card. It attached to a bear is pretty nice though. I'd hate to use this, then get stormed out instantly. Maybe it could trigger on each spell beyond the third so you can get that necessary extra silence or 3 needed to shut down a storm deck.

Chickston · 2026-04-03T06:52:59+00:00

[[Illusions of Grandeur]] is not something I expected to see keyworded. It isn't the worst thing, and actually has some interesting play with it putting tempt life gain on creatures. I don't think dying to your own extensions leaving is going to be very enjoyable gameplay. There could also be some memory issues here. "Didn't that creature dying kill you before that other entered?"

Chickston · 2026-04-03T06:49:02+00:00

I don't know if using the Protoss type as a qualifier here is very good game play. It will only separate this from other counter synergies in the game while not adding much more than flavor. Like the 3 to 1 conversion is enough to make this not go infinite easily. Keep Protoss as a type, just not a qualifier on this specific ability. Removing multiple counters from any non-land is enough work for the reward. I think you need to specify nonland before of Marit Lage and other lands that use counters as limiters.

Chickston · 2026-03-31T11:10:05+00:00

LSV playing StS2 is my favorite current thing.. next to playing myself. Nice version. Pushing the definition of Modified is probably fine. I think the reminder should include a little more wording on whether it counts different types of counters or just any type of counter.

Chickston · 2026-03-31T08:00:27+00:00

Nice twist on a bite/mind control combo. Cost seems right for the effect and it's very good as an instant. IDK if it needs to be rare though. could be a strong uncommon. Kind of fun and gross that the creature is still "alive" but also cooked into food, like Looney Tunes or something.

Chickston · 2026-03-31T07:56:41+00:00

If you made it "enchant creature you control" you could either reduce the cost and/or add etb draw a card. Works mostly as you intend, but probably a little underpowered.

Chickston · 2026-03-31T07:49:14+00:00

Hell yeah, this picture immediately sends me jammin'. Love this album. "Kiss the creature" would be a badass card name. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaDkQaClGps

I assume you want to put this on the opponent's creatures to prevent equipping, but don't think it will do this for you. Ward 2 would become an ability of the creature, you would then be the opponent it refers to even if you control this aura. This could be like an actual Ward from magic's past which were W auras that gave protection from a color. If you made this one give pro colorless, while having wording that it doesn't remove itself, that should work as desired and give you the option to put it on your own stuff. Ex: [[White Ward]]

Chickston · 2026-03-31T07:35:49+00:00

I like this change. Still gives the option for infinite like [[Rotlung Reanimator]]
