White one is Kinsbaile Skirmisher. Red reminds me of Inner-Flame Acolyte that I used to play in standard. I like the green one

Yes, I was aware of that card, that's what I was using as a template. I wanted to make a version that didn't have the set-restrictive typing, though.

There’s no restriction on what creature it can give +1/+1 to

Yes, but there is a restriction on what sets you can print a Kithkin in.

hot take: There shouldn't be. Kithkin (and Vedalken!) should be as iconic as Elves, Goblins, and (more recently) Vampires.

That's between you and WotC.

Next up: goblins!

Ambitious Goblin
Creature - Goblin Warrior
Renown 1
Sacrifice ~: ~ deals 3 damage to target player. Active this ability only if ~ isn't renowned.
2/2
"I ain't 'disposable' no more, boss!"

Sniveling Goblin

2/2

Prideful Goblin
Creature - Goblin
~ attacks each turn if able.
~ must be blocked each turn if able.
2/2
Most goblins prefer to live in the sewers rather than show their face in the streets above. Most humans would prefer they do so as well.

Goblin Hunters
Creature - Human
Whenever ~ attacks, choose target creature an opponent controls. Its controller may exile it until the beginning of their next upkeep. If they don't, ~ deals 4 damage to it.
2/2
"The smart ones know to scurry back to the shadows where they belong."

Hidden Goblin
Creature - Goblin
~ isn't a goblin.
~ is a human.
2/2

P/t of ambitious?

Proud goblin - I think the wording is now “~ attacks each combat if able” and “~ must be blocked if able”. It’s a cool ability that doesn’t get used much, maybe because they’re afraid of Oakenform?

Gustcloak Sentinel’s ability is niche enough that I don’t think it needs an added cost, though I get the flavor. If you liked Jordan Peterson, you could make it a lobster

Gustcloak Sentinel is white, they get bear+s. Black gets bears, bear-1/2s, and bear+1/2s.

And I don't like Jordan Peterson. Could you tell?

Personality disorders!

1/3

One sided Uba Mask

The ununtappable guy is cool

It's different. The idea of the Spinebeast is that it can read your thoughts, and knows what you're going to do before you do it. Hence, the opponent must, in effect, lay out all of the cards that they're going to play for the turn, so you can predict their moves.

Oh true, the opponent can keep cards they draw in hand until they're ready to use them

Immovable Sovereign
