I agree with Morgothra, we need to kick these forums into gear with some threads. So, here's a quick contest while I try and figure out a new long-term one.

Criteria: Design a fantasy fantasy card that uses two pre-existing mechanics that have never been featured on a card together before.

You have until.... umm.... sometime. A few days at least. I dunno.

Yawgmoth's Shadow
Sorcery
Choose one - Search target player's library for X cards where X is your devotion to black, and exile them; each opponent loses X life, where X is your devotion to black and you gain life equal to the life lost this way; or return X creature cards from any graveyard to the battlefield under your control where X is your devotion to black.

Epic (For the rest of the game, you can't cast spells. At the beginning of each of your upkeeps, copy this spell except for its epic ability.)

Phyrexian Compleation :pb: :pb: :pb:
Legendary Enchantment Artifact

As long as your devotion to Phyrexia is greater than your devotion to each color, creatures you control get +2/+2 and are artifacts in addition to their other types. (Each Image in the mana costs of permanents you control counts toward your devotion to Phyrexia.)

So far we have:

Dudibus
AzureShade
Confused
tony3
Morgothra
Ko
Temjen
Steinhauser
YingLung
miss_bun
cato
LilyStorm
Imidazoline
Tevish Szat

Looks like quite a few people are participating so far, which is awesome. Perhaps I should redo my Video Game Title contest here.... or maybe go with Song Titles.... or something. That could be fun. Well, 14 players, maybe we can hit 20! (probably not)
