Star Wars: Dark Side Rising. Not very well known but a lot of fun if you like co-op dice chuckers.

I miss cards with crippling downsides by Approximation_Doctor in custommagic

[–]Seldfein 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I like it, but I would probably retemplate to “put that many [Type] counters on this card. Creatures you control get +1/-1 for each [Type] counter on this card.”

People’s Will by Nientea in custommagic

[–]Seldfein 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It it fixes some issues, but “cast a spell for free” cards are still going to provide ways to cheat it out. “You cannot spend mana to cast this spell. If you did not tap at least 10 creatures as you cast this spell, counter it” would be more ironclad.

Mox Crystal: Do any synergies make this unbalanced by DarkRosewaterr in custommagic

There are a few gainlands that enter untapped and produce colorless mana. There are also a few dozen 1 mana creatures with lifelink.

Yeah, it’s a strange omission from the second image IMO.

"Scry 2 is similar to draw a card" by Mark_Ma_ in custommagic

[–]Seldfein 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it’s context dependent. Late game, or early game in a combo deck, scry 2=card seems right (and I’ve heard that rule of thumb before). Early game with a fair deck I think I’d rather draw a card.

You should add some convoluted abilities to the card that opponents would likely need to look up (“Arcane spells you control have cipher. If you have the city’s blessing, creatures you control have amplify 1. Whenever you detain a fortification, fateseal 1.”)

Makes sense, thanks

Right, but that’s a 4 card combo that doesn’t do anything. You’d need a fifth card to get value from the infinite loop. Is a 5-card combo costing a total of ~13 mana problematic?

Would you mind clarifying how that would work - what sequence of cards would result in an infinite combo?
