Get it?? Hexagon???

Stupid Pun —
Instant
Counter target spell if it's not the first spell its controller cast this turn.
Barrin had always hated leather. Unfortunately for Mirri, his opinion could not be suede.

So I'm not in the bracket to participate this round in Rag's contest, but I thought I'd make a card for it anyway

criteria is make a card with a creature type in a color not generally associated with that creature type

I really like green goblins (not the spider-man kind, that scene where he gets all injected out freaked the **** out of me when i was a kid) but that's been done before so hmmm

maybe white elves? eh that was done in shadowmoor too…

hmm

Lava Lurker —
Creature — Leviathan (R)
When Lava Lurker enters the battlefield, it deals 4 damage to target creature.
When Lava Lurker leaves the battlefield, it deals 8 damage to target creature.
4/8

splash

I could go for a red leviathan that lives in the molten ocean of the earth's core. I like how the abilities match up with the P/T too- nice touch. Seems balanced. Aside from going super big though, I don't get the leviathan vibe. I guess it makes sense with the lavaness though.

Gethyra, the Kiss of Death —
Legendary Creature — Insect Shaman (M)
Hexproof, deathtouch
Whenever Gethyra, the Kiss of Death deals combat damage to a player, that player loses the game.
The Kelvori have a ritual in which, on the night before a wedding, an invitation is written to the bog queen and thrown into a nearby swamp. Failure to do so, they believe, will doom the bride to a sickly death.
1/1

Nivmagus Mirrormancer —
Creature — Human Wizard (R)
Hexproof
When Nivmagus Mirrormancer enters the battlefield, create four 1/1 blue Illusion creature tokens with flying.
Illusions you control have "Whenever this creature becomes the target of a spell or ability, sacrifice it."
5/5

Inspired by Deranged Hermit and Lord of the Unreal. Intended for a Commander set, not Standard-legal.

Is the Bog Queen coming to weddings she was invited to ?
That'd be cool.

I think it's a shame that the mirrormancer's illusions are so small that most spells/abilities will kill them anyway -- seems like the illusion ability is a bit redundant.

think this is incredibly unfun with aether tunnel and aqueous form and friends

Jund Behemoth —
Creature — Dinosaur (R)
As an additional cost to cast Jund Behemoth, sacrifice a creature.
8/8

Is this too big?

Should it be an ETB rather than cast ability so you can't cheat it with Collected Company?

no.

also i felt like we progressed from woolly thoctar to Steel Leaf Champion

With designs like Demon of Catastrophes and Gigantosaurus, this Behemoth felt backward

Doom Pact —
Enchantment — Aura Curse (M)
Enchant player
Doom Pact enters the battlefield with thirteen doom counters on it.
Other sources can't remove counters from Doom Pact.
At the beginning of enchanted player's end step, remove a doom counter from Doom Pact. When the last is removed, sacrifice Doom Pact. If you do, enchanted player loses the game.

Petrification —
Enchantment — Aura (U)
Enchant creature
If enchanted creature is an artifact, it gets +3/+3. Otherwise, it can't attack or block.
The stare of the basilisk, the eye of the gorgon, the breath of the cockatrice, the dark elf's arrow—all food for the golem's grit.

Mechanically, Petrification should be white. Red could pump an artifact creature, but it won't stop creatures from attacking. That's white's domain.

I think the idea is cute-ish. But I don't get why petrifying pumps artifact either.

Beyond mechanics, Petrification is not very red either. There's basilisk in green. Gorgon in black. It doesn't feel very red to freeze you in place over blowing you up.

presumably petrification makes you harder and so stronger if it doesn't kill you.

Hopling —
Creature — Frog (R)
Blueproof (This creature can't be damaged, targeted, or destroyed by blue sources.)
Whenever an opponent casts a spell, add to your mana pool.
"What could possibly be the harm in a tiny frog? I highly doubt he's a magical prince in disguise, my love. Don't get jealous."
—Sharleone, to Enmathius
0/1

Kill —
Sorcery
Destroy target creature.
=~=
Be Killed —
Sorcery
As an additional cost to cast this spell, sacrifice a creature.
Draw two cards.

the REAL meaning of this world, eh ?
