that's pretty neat fam

if you like it so much there's a certain contest you could nominate it for that i'd love to shoot for three wins in a row with

Let the record show that I, ParadOxymoron, have exerted no force, blackmail, extortion, or perjury upon the user known as Mata Hari, neither with the contents of this post nor otherwise.

a flash bear that draws a cancel sounds pretty strong
kind of curious why the enchantment is colorless when the card itself is so color heavy

Perplex, though certainly different at . Nice flavor.

There's already a card named Asphyxiate, I'm afraid.

Because if you cast it in one turn I didn't want the color intensity to be any higher than , and on its own is the cost of a 2/2 flashbear.


Sadly, I knew this already. I was just hoping nobody would point it out.

A stupid design that nobody should respect or pay any attention to but that I wanted to post anyway:

Avatar of the Infinite —
Legendary Enchantment Creature — Avatar (M)
Avatar of the Infinite enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it, where X is twice the amount of mana spent to cast it.
“A long time ago—actually, never; and also, now—nothing is nowhere. When? Never. Makes sense, right? Like I said, it didn't happen. Nothing was never anywhere. That's why it's been everywhere. It's been so everywhere, you don't need a ‘where.’ You don't even need a ‘when.’ That's how ‘every’ it gets.”

Sidisi's Scheme —
Sorcery (R)
Search your library for three cards. Put one of them into your hand, one of them on top of your library, and one of them into your graveyard.

Biased, but I like this.

Inspired by a half-plate-wearing, rapier-dual-weilding, Sable Luma Oath of the Ally Paladin I designed for Humblewood:

Lyquinn Anypath —

Flying, first strike

Whenever you sacrifice a trinket, Tin Street Gadgeteer gets +1/+1 until end of turn. (Food, Treasures, and Clues are trinkets.)
"One man's trash, right? And that's not to say it's my treasure! But I sure won't let it go to waste, either."
1/2

By chance I was just thinking of making a card that used those three tokens. That would’ve been a good entry in the batching contest

Yeah, I only posted it here instead of there because I missed the deadline :3

Sorin's Final Gambit —
Sorcery (M)
You control target player during that player's next turn. At the beginning of your next upkeep, you lose the game.
Sorin could think of no weapon that could bring an end to Nahiri besides the blades she forged herself.

Inspired by Gavin's hint that next Commander set will have a permanent with the text: "You control your opponents while…" and thinking about what kind of ludicrous drawback or condition could possibly make an ability like that balanced.
