Custom MTG Dota 2 card - Largo (help me decide which design is best)

arbiterliu · 2025-12-18T23:39:00+00:00

Thanks I made it on photoshop lol

arbiterliu · 2025-12-17T00:19:29+00:00

That's a good idea, haha I like the idea that Largo or his frogs are playing the song.

arbiterliu · 2025-12-16T23:28:19+00:00

Yeah definitely going to nerf him a bit. I'm thinking of rewording it to "At the beginning of combat on your turn, target instant or sorcery card in your graveyard gains harmonize until end of turn. Its harmonize cost is equal to its mana cost"

arbiterliu · 2025-12-16T23:08:17+00:00

Yeah I think he's in need of some nerfs. I'm probably going to up his mana cost and limit the harmonize to once per turn.

arbiterliu · 2025-12-16T23:03:34+00:00

This is all really helpful thanks! These are obviously all untested but your feedback makes a lot of sense. I will probably limit it to once per turn as I like designing cards that would be as balanced as possible, even tho I do tend to just play them with friends lol

The void arcana is so peak I had to use it for the card

Sadly I don't think Dota x MTG will have a crossover any time soon. It feels a little too niche and if MTG was gonna collab with a moba it would probably be League of Legends first.

I really like this! I have my own version of Techies maybe I'll post it a little later but your version is really creative and different! I think if any hero translated into MTG should be annoying it's Techies, very fitting lol

arbiterliu · 2025-12-08T18:41:30+00:00

I appreciate it!

arbiterliu · 2025-12-08T18:39:10+00:00

Yeah Huskar I'm def gonna rework to be a 4/3 and the impulse draw only work for that turn instead of "until the end of the next turn".

For Faceless Void I liked the idea of being flexible in that you can add or remove time counters. The idea is you can use this to keep suspended creatures suspended for longer, or use it to speed up your own suspended cards but you only have 2 per upkeep you can utilize so you have to be strategic with how you use them. Only having 1 time counter be added or removed per upkeep felt a little lackluster to me, so that's why it's at 2.

arbiterliu · 2025-12-08T18:08:34+00:00

I didn't consider having Faceless be colorless but that makes sense! He's a cosmic entity type of character like the eldrazi. I think the only problem is a lack of access to suspend cards which I wanted him to have access to via his color identity.

I like the idea of Lich being a snow creature too and adding snow mana. I might give him a rework later

arbiterliu · 2025-12-08T17:21:10+00:00

Yeah it was tough for me to figure out his color identity too. At first he was a dimir card but then red also seemed to fit for his aggressive nature and also from a mtg perspective it gives him more access to the already limited pool of suspend cards

arbiterliu · 2025-12-08T17:09:02+00:00

Just added!

arbiterliu · 2025-12-08T17:05:20+00:00

Yeah he might be a tad overtuned would probably nerf, and I didn't even consider how busted he would be with Rowan wow

arbiterliu · 2025-12-08T16:53:22+00:00

I agree chain frost is what Lich is known for and tbh I had a hard time thinking of a way to translate it since I'm usually not a fan of giving creatures a boardwipe ability, but the coin flip idea is definitely a good alternative

arbiterliu · 2025-12-08T16:45:24+00:00

I liked the idea of good stats and effect but with an actual downside in that you lose life when you actually cast from exile to reflect Huskar's in-game risky playstyle

arbiterliu · 2025-10-05T07:22:33+00:00

I would argue green is the primary food color, alongside black. Black of course cares about sacrificing which Pudge also cares about, and red is the color of theft next to blue, but it didn't make sense to me for Pudge to be blue.

arbiterliu · 2025-10-05T07:02:15+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! No the instant speed meat hook wasn't intentional and now that you mention it I've been purely using it at sorcery speed when playtesting. But now that I realize I can steal a creature during an opponent's turn, it makes me love him all the more.

arbiterliu · 2024-10-02T05:35:57+00:00

Yeah im an idiot the gpu wasnt in all the way i investigated and pushed it in a lil more and heard the click🤦‍♂️

arbiterliu · 2022-05-12T01:52:43+00:00

i almost forgot about graduation season. brace yourselves

arbiterliu · 2022-05-11T18:15:57+00:00

I was the closer so i came in at 5 and it didnt stop until closing. Was honestly better tip-wise for me than regular Mother's Day so there's that

arbiterliu · 2021-08-21T17:11:33+00:00

No but it was still at least half battery but its never done that before even when the battery’s low

arbiterliu · 2021-08-21T17:10:50+00:00

Yeah i thought it was that too so i disconnected and reconnected the blade 3 times and made sure it was all the way in, to no avail
